BTC price puts pressure on the lower end of the range at $107,000

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed that BTC price action has fallen to near $107,000.

This level marks the bottom of BTC/USD’s regional range and was a key defense for the bulls.

Cryptocurrencies also joined the US stock market following an additional 0.25% interest rate cut by the US Federal Reserve the previous day.

The US-China trade deal to avoid high tariffs from November 1, which was seen as this week’s macro catalyst, lacked certainty despite President Donald Trump’s hopeful comments.

In a post on Truth Social after his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, President Trump said the two sides “agreed on many things.”

“I had a really great meeting with President Xi of China. There is a great deal of respect between our two countries, which will only increase with this event,” the post said.

“We agree on many points and are very close to a resolution on other points, even the more important ones.”

While the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite Index both started the day lower, gold rose to over $4,000 an ounce.

High liquidations have marked the cryptocurrency’s struggles as traders’ macro bets unravel. According to data from monitoring resource CoinGlass, at the time of writing, 24-hour liquidations amounted to more than $1.1 billion.

Some, including trader CrypNuevo, saw Bitcoin repeating its “usual” behavior around the Fed’s interest rate meeting.

“There is nothing to worry about in terms of market structure or trends. Prices are reversing the new imbalance that occurred this evening,” he told X followers.

CrypNuevo noted that prices closed a recent weekend “gap” in the CME Group Bitcoin futures market.

Other perspectives were less relaxed. Trader Roman warned that BTC/USD has not been able to keep up with the stock price even during the rally, and a trend reversal could cause further price declines.

CoinGlass has confirmed that October 2025 will be “red” for Bitcoin for the first time since 2018, with one business day left to turn the situation around.

As reported by Cointelegraph, the average increase in October since 2013 is 20%.
