Jakarta, Pintu News – The market crash triggered by new tariff tensions between the US and China sent most altcoins plummeting. However, Pi Network (PI) showed better-than-expected resilience.
Although in the past week its price has dropped by almost 23% (partly as a result of the crash), Pi Coin’s price has been able to stay above the $0.15 support level, showing resilience at a time when most other tokens have fallen deeper.
Since October 7, Pi Coin has slowly started to recover and is now trading close to $0.20, suggesting that investor confidence is slowly returning. Judging by the chart and on-chain behavior, there are indications that Pi is preparing to bounce back, as long as the selling pressure continues to subside.
On the daily chart (12/10), the volume spread pattern-which is often analyzed in a Wyckoff-style approach-helps identify the power shift between buyers and sellers.

During the market crash due to tariff tensions, the chart was dominated by red bars, indicating complete control by Pi Coin sellers. But now the bars have turned yellow, indicating that sellers are still active, but the pressure is starting to weaken.
More importantly, the yellow bars continue to get smaller. This suggests that the selling momentum is starting to subside, and buyers are slowly making their way into the market.
The last time this shrinkage pattern appeared was in early August, when Pi Coin had risen almost 40% in just four days. If this trend continues without a new spike in selling volume (red bars), then PI could potentially experience a similar short-term rebound.
The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator-which measures how much institutional money flows in or out of an asset-also supports this positive scenario.
Despite falling below zero, the CMF value remains well above its low on October 7 and is stronger than its end-August position.
This means that large market participants are still quietly accumulating Pi Coin, although small investors remain cautious (which can be seen from the Wyckoff bars that are still yellow).
Overall, these signals suggest that the selling pressure is starting to ease and the buyers’ strength is slowly returning.
On the 12-hour chart (12/10), Pi Coin formed a bullish RSI divergence pattern between September 23 to October 10.

Although the price printed a lower low, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) actually showed a higher low, signaling that the downward pressure is starting to lose steam.
Divergences like this usually indicate a potential trend reversal, and given PI’s history of weak prices, a short-term rebound looks more likely than a major trend reversal.
(The RSI itself is a momentum indicator that moves in a range of 0 to 100, used to see if an asset is overbought or oversold.)
As of October 12, 2025, the PI price is at $0.201, right near the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement level. If the price manages to close above $0.205 on the 12-hour chart, this could confirm a breakout attempt to the next resistance area at $0.238 – or about 18% higher than the current price.
If that momentum continues, the next upside target could be $0.264 (approximately 31% higher) and even $0.290 (approximately 44% above the current price).
However, if the price instead falls below $0.184, then this rebound scenario is considered void, and the Pi Coin price could potentially fall back down to around $0.153, depending on the overall market reaction.
