PEPE coin has become a tougher contender in the “best crypto to buy” debate after its two-week uptrend unraveled into a sharp 25% correction.

The next wave of Trump’s “tariff war” plans has put recession fears back in focus, fuelling market-wide FUD—hitting PEPE particularly hard.

However, the new week brings a glimmer of hope, with PEPE surging 7% today, supported by a 15% increase in trading volume to $675 million.

Whales Offload PEPE at a Loss: Should You?

The 25% decline appears to have been the tipping point for some whales, realizing major losses after four straight months of decline.

Blockchain analytics firm LookOnChain reported that one whale offloaded $3.03 million worth of PEPE at a $434,000 loss.

This shift in capital sparked broad market sell-offs, with over 1 trillion tokens liquidated in a significant shakeout. However, technical indicators suggest the worst may be over.

PEPE Price Analysis: ‘Buy-the-Dip’ Opportunity?

Today’s reversal suggests a potential bottom, with a successful retest of a long-term support zone that has guided lows since mid-2024.

If this level holds, the altcoin could approach a retest of the upper resistance of a falling wedge that guided price movements since early December.

A decisive breakout could target highs of $0.00002—a potential 165% gain from current levels.

This scenario remains credible, supported by a MACD golden cross, with the MACD surpassing the signal line—a historically bullish move that has preceded strong upward momentum.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is also showing signs of recovery, trending upward toward 40 after being stuck in a sideways trend near the oversold threshold since early February.

While these signals lean bullish, they remain weak. A breakout will likely require stronger buying pressure.
