Pepe Statistical Data
Based on Coinmarketcap data:
- PEPE price now – $0.00001179
- PEPE market cap – $4.96 billion
- PEPE total supply – 420.69 trillion
- PEPE circulating supply – 420.69 trillion
- PEPE ranking – #22
Over the past few days, the PEPE price has consolidated between a limit/resistance of $0.00001314 and a limit/support of $0.00001129. This moving period between horizontal support and resistance levels could be an accumulation phase before a strong upward movement.
PEPE Price Technical Indicators Suggest a Bearish Outlook
Based on the technical outlook, the frog-themed memecoin faces immediate resistance at $0.00001209(which coincides with the 50-day SMA), suppressing the bulls against upward movement. However, the bulls have strong support at $0.00001084, which aligns with the 200-day SMA.
Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently stands at 44 and suggests dwindling buyer momentum. If the buyers won’t build stamina, the momentum indicator might hurtle towards the 30-oversold zone, as it points towards the south.
On the other hand, the Moving Convergence Divergence (MACD) worsens the outlook, as it has crossed below the signal line(orange). Unless the MACD line changes, the sellers might continue to dominate the market, reinforcing the bearish sentiment.
Will the Bulls Break Out of the Consolidation Phase?
In the 4-hour chart timeframe, the PEPE price paints a bearish picture as the sellers dominate the market. However, if the sellers continue to sell the frog-themed memecoin, it could lead to the PEPE price breaching the $0.00001084 support. This may lead to the memecoin falling to as low as $0.0000094 in the short term.
Conversely, if the buyers build stamina and increase their buying appetite, they might flip the 50-day SMA into immediate support, which could trigger a breakout in the coming days. In such a scenario, a decisive 4-hour candlestick close above the $0.00001314 level could give the bull’s hind wings to propel the PEPE price to around $0.00001481.
