Pepe’s breakout: Could it outperform DOGE and SHIB?
Until strong conviction seizes the market, Pepe traders can continue to anticipate a range-like price action.
- Pepe has a bullish market structure on the daily.
- The range extremes of the past six weeks of trading continued to limit the price movement.
Pepe [PEPE] was one of the best-performing large-cap meme coins and has outshone Dogecoin [DOGE] and Shiba Inu [SHIB]. It is up 16.71% from Monday’s low, compared to 10% for DOGE and 13% for SHIB.

The range formation was not a true range as it had sizeable deviations above and below the $0.000009 and $0.00000678 levels, but these levels represented the rough extremes of the range.
The $0.0000077-$0.000008 region has served as resistance over the past month but was breached during the recent rally.
This rally has strong upward momentum as seen on the Money Flow Index and a divergence was not yet spotted. Hence, the MFI has not yet shown a sell signal.
The A/D indicator has trended higher over the past two weeks to reflect increased buying pressure behind Pepe.
It was likely that the price would advance to the $0.000009-$0.0000095 local resistance zone before the bulls were driven back. Swing traders already in a long position can use a retest of this region to take profits.

The liquidation heatmap revealed that $0.000009 and $0.000006 were the primary magnetic zones in the coming weeks. A sweep of either liquidity pool would likely result in a trend reversal.
