Markets on Edge as Trump’s Tariff Plans Create Chaos
Josh Olszewicz breaks down the current market turmoil, where Bitcoin, stocks, and altcoins are all under pressure. With Trump’s new tariff threats looming, uncertainty is at an all-time high.
1. Bitcoin at a Make-or-Break Level
Bitcoin is struggling to hold $80K, with downside risks increasing:
📌 Must Hold: $80K – Losing this could send BTC to $74K.
📌 Danger Zone: A weekly close below $74K would be a clear bearish sign.
📌 Breakout Trigger: BTC needs to reclaim $92K to turn bullish again.
Right now, BTC is stuck in a weak range with no clear direction.
2. Why April 2nd Matters – Trump’s Tariff Decision
Trump is set to announce new trade tariffs on April 2nd, which could impact global markets. Two possible outcomes:
🟢 No Tariffs: Markets rally as uncertainty clears. BTC could bounce.
🔴 More Tariffs: Stocks and crypto take another hit as investors panic.
Markets hate uncertainty, and Trump’s unpredictable policies are making it worse.
3. Altcoins Are in Survival Mode
With BTC dominance still high, altcoins are stuck in a downtrend.
❌ Ethereum? Weak and untradeable – ETH/BTC is crashing.
❌ Solana? Still bearish, stuck under key resistance.
❌ Memecoins? Crashing – Pepe is down 80% from its highs.
Altseason won’t happen until BTC stabilizes.
4. Stock Market is Breaking Down
📉 The S&P 500 is near critical support – if it breaks, expect more downside.
🔻 Bearish Triggers:
- Apple and Tesla are crashing – dragging the market lower.
- If Q2 starts weak, it could ruin the entire 2025 bull case.
If stocks stay weak, BTC will struggle to break out.
5. Best Strategy Right Now? Do Nothing.
Josh’s advice: Wait for confirmation before taking big risks.
✅ For BTC bulls: Only buy above $92K or near $74K support.
✅ For cash-heavy traders: Be patient – there’s no rush to jump in.
✅ For altcoin traders: Wait for BTC dominance to drop before buying alts.
Final Take: April 2nd is a key date. Until then, stay cautious and avoid forced trades. Markets need to settle before any real trends emerge. 🚨
