  • Price action hit a crucial roadblock at $0.00000070.
  • PEPE maintained an accumulation trend since August as prices dropped.

At press time, PEPE’s higher timeframe market structure bias was bearish. The recent rebound hit a confluence of a 50-EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and H12 bearish order block (OB) of $0.00000069 – $0.00000072 (orange). 

Another daily bearish OB sat at $0.00000077 – $0.00000083 (red). On the H12 chart, the confluence of 50-EMA and bearish OB could make the area a critical bearish zone. Besides, BTC exhibited muted price action at press time, which could further derail the rebound.
