Global crypto sell-off intensifies as U.S. tariff policy shocks markets

A sweeping U.S. policy to impose 100% tariffs on Chinese imports starting November 1, 2025, has sparked a sharp risk-off move across global and crypto markets, fueling a widespread sell-off. The fallout saw Bitcoin and major altcoins tumble, exposing smaller tokens like CORE to outsized volatility and sell pressure. Crypto-related equities and broader tech stocks also slid, while ongoing venture capital inflows into blockchain projects offered some support in an otherwise turbulent session.

Deeply oversold momentum persists as sellers control tight range

Momentum signals are firmly bearish, with the MACD and RSI D1 both indicating sell conditions and ADX showing strong but one-sided trend intensity. RSI, Stoch RSI, and CCI confirm deeply oversold conditions, suggesting a potential for short-term relief but no immediate reversal. Intraday sellers dominate, as BBP is neutral but awesome oscillator points to strong selling, while today’s price slipped 7.82% with no gap between the previous close and today’s open. The current price is pinned near the daily low within a tight $0.25 – $0.26 range, reflecting low volatility and sustained pressure after the open. Most intraday and daily momentum indicators are aligned to the downside, with little divergence present.

Downward bias dominates as probability of rebound remains low

For the next five trading days, the expected range is $0.2691 – $0.3022. The probability of a price increase is very low (less than 20%), making a downward movement much more likely. In the baseline scenario, CORE is likely to remain rangebound near recent lows, with sideways movement between support and resistance. In a bullish scenario, an upward break above $0.2901 could open the way toward $0.30 – $0.31, while a break below $0.25 exposes further downside toward the lower end of the projected weekly range.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, observes that CORE remains under heavy selling pressure, pinned well below all major moving averages and lacking dynamic support. He notes that the risk-off sentiment triggered by sweeping U.S. tariffs has put additional strain on the broader crypto market, magnifying volatility for tokens like CORE despite some ongoing venture capital interest. While deep oversold conditions point to possible short-term relief, momentum and macro drivers still favor a downside bias in the days ahead. 'Momentum remains bearish, but if positive news emerges or global risk appetite rebounds, CORE could stage a rebound above $0.2901 — for now, traders should expect consolidation near the lows.'

Previously it was noted that momentum and oscillators align, showing no divergence as bearish pressure dominated the intraday price action. The article also highlighted that broader macroeconomic developments were reinforcing downside momentum for CORE at that time.
