1565.
The meme coin’s price has risen since then, as CoinMarketCap indicated that it was trading at $0.1706 at press time.
This is after PEPE’s price had printed a 24-hour gain of 12.46%.
In addition, the altcoin strengthened against the two crypto market leaders, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) during this time period as well.
At press time, PEPE was up 11.50% against BTC and 12.20% against the leading altcoin.This recent price increase can be attributed to the 158% spike in the crypto’s trading volume, which stood at approximately $394.38 million.
4-hour chart for PEPE/USDT (Source: TradingView)
PEPE was able to break above the $0.
165 resistance level in the last 24 hours – flipping it into a support level in the process.It attempted to do the same with the resistance level at $0.203 yesterday evening but was only able to reach a high of $0.193 before correcting in the 12 hours that followed.
There was still some sell pressure present, as evident by the wick that was present above the latest 4-hour candle.Should PEPE’s price succumb to this bearish pressure it will likely drop back below $0.165 within the next 24 hours.
Technical indicators on the 4-hour chart did, however, suggest that this slight pullback in PEPE’s price may be nothing more than a liquidity building move before another move up.
At press time, the 9 EMA line was trading bullishly above the 20 EMA line and the RSI line had a slight positive slope towards overbought territory.
If this bullish thesis is validated, then the meme coin’s price could flip the $0.203 resistance into support within the next 24-48 hours.A confirmation of this potential move towards the next resistance level will be if PEPE’s price closes the next 8 hours above $0.165.
