Pepe Price Prediction: PEPE is an outlier with over 15% gains as meme coins post single-digit surges

• Pepe price is up 15.16% to confront the midline of a multi-month supply barrier.
• PEPE could rise 20% to reclaim the July 14 highs if it breaks and closes above the $0.00000159 mean threshold.
• Invalidation of the bullish thesis will occur if the frog-themed meme coin decisively closes below $0.00000134.
• DOGE, SHIB, and BONK are following with single digit gains among the memecoin top 4 list by market capitalization.

Pepe coin (PEPE) price is trading with a strong bullish bias, outperforming the meme coin top four, including Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and Bonk Inu (BONK), which are up by single digits. Meme coins appear to be rallying after the Bitcoin price showed strength.

Pepe price eyes 20% gains

Second only to Solana’s Dogwifhat (WIF), which is up nearly 30%, Pepe price has soared over 15% with potential for more gains as technical indicators flash bullish. The token is confronting resistance at $0.00000159, marking the mean threshold of the supply zone that extends from $0.00000146 to $0.00000172. A break and close above this blockade would confirm the continuation of the rally.

Notice the supply barrier has been a multi-month roadblock for the Pepe price, barring its upside potential since before July 2023. Based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI), PEPE is already overbought, though not ripe for selling, based on Welles Wilder’s interpretation, the father of several technical indicators that are now considered the core tenets of technical analysis software.

With the RSI still northbound, Pepe price could extend the gains 20% to reclaim the $0.00000189 range high. In a highly bullish case, the gains could extend beyond this blockade for the frog-themed token to hit $0.00000200 psychological level, nearly 26% above current levels.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and the Awesome Oscillator (AO) show that the bulls maintain a strong presence in the PEPE market, seeing as large volumes of green histogram bars continue to hold in positive territory on the daily chart. The MACD is also moving above its signal line, reinforcing the possibility of a strong bullish cycle in play.

On the flip side, if the supply barrier holds as a resistance, ultimately seeing PEPE price rejected from its midline, the meme coin could retest the $0.00000134 support level, below which the bullish thesis would be invalidated.  

A bearish directional bias could send Pepe price to find support around the $0.00000110 support, or in a dire case, extend a leg down to the $0.0.00000085 support floor.
