Pepe Price Forecast: Pepe bulls aim for the $0.000016 mark
Pepe price broke and closed above its 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $0.000009 on Thursday and rallied over 64% until Saturday and closed above its daily resistance level at $0.000013. However, it faced a pullback the next day, and support was found at this daily level. At the time of writing on Monday, it continues to trade higher by 5% at around $0.000014.
If PEPE continues its upward trend, it could extend the rally to retest its next daily resistance at $0.000016. A successful close above this level will extend an additional gain toward its January 18 high of $0.000021.
The daily chart’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) moves above 70, indicating strong bullish momentum. However, traders should be cautious as the chances of a pullback are high due to the overbought condition. Another possibility is that the RSI remains above the overbought level of 70 and continues its upward trend.
