The PEPE token experienced extreme volatility, with its price swinging dramatically between key technical levels. Initially, the token dropped 9.6% in 24 hours, pushing its price down to $0.054156 and moving it back toward a crucial support zone at $0.054147. The trading range was notably narrow, with a defined resistance level at $0.054685 restricting directional movement.
This bearish pressure was compounded by weakening performance against major cryptocurrencies. PEPE's valuation against Bitcoin (BTC) fell by 4.8%, while its ratio against Ethereum (ETH) declined by 4.3%, indicating broader market pressure on the meme coin.
However, the market sentiment shifted rapidly. In a subsequent move, PEPE surged by 17.0% in 24 hours, trading up to $0.0547 and approaching a new resistance level at $0.054773. This sharp rebound occurred while the token maintained support above $0.054003. The one-hour Relative Strength Index (RSI) reached 77.06, signaling strong short-term momentum but also placing the asset in overbought territory. Technical indicators, including the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) trading above its signal line, confirmed the bullish momentum within the session.
The price action remained confined between the established support and resistance levels, creating a compressed trading structure that dictated short-term behavior and focused trader attention on these key reaction zones.
