PEPE's recent trend is quite interesting. Although the entire meme coin sector is experiencing a fierce rebound, with this guy's price soaring to a 7084% increase in early January and generating massive buzz, the price performance is somewhat complex—on one hand, speculative enthusiasm is high, and on the other hand, it is undergoing a correction.



From a technical perspective, there are indeed some signals worth considering. The short-term EMA has already broken below the 25-day line, and the MACD has crossed below the signal line, all indicating potential short-term downside pressure. Interestingly, PEPE is currently consolidating just above a long-term support level; historically, this area often triggers significant upward movements, so the rebound potential from the bottom remains.

The actions of whales are particularly noteworthy. Large holders still hold substantial leveraged long positions, showing confidence in the market and seemingly locking in the psychological price point of 0.01. However, there are also whales transferring 1.2 million PEPE to exchanges, along with other large holders diversifying their holdings, resulting in a total outflow of 280,000 PEPE, which signals profit-taking.

Another detail that highlights the situation is the trading volume of 8.7 billion, while the market cap only increased by 1 billion. This indicates that while funds are accumulating, they are also dispersing. With so many high-leverage longs currently, a sudden market reversal could pose a real liquidation risk. Overall, PEPE is in a delicate position: the rebound momentum is strong, but risks are gradually building up.
PEPE-1,5%

Whales are starting to sell off again. With so many leveraged longs, a collapse is inevitable.

7084% that number looks impressive, but whales are quietly transferring coins to exchanges. We need to think this through carefully.

7084% is truly incredible, but I somewhat understand the meaning behind this wave of whale withdrawals... --- 87 billion in trading volume only increased by 1 billion, how fake is this market? --- To put it simply, the bulls are just self-entertaining, and liquidation is just around the corner. --- Support levels are support, but once high leverage breaks, there are deep pits below. --- Locking in a psychological price of 0.01? Uh... this is probably the last stubbornness of the big players. --- 120 million PEPE are heading to exchanges, smart money has already started to run. --- There is rebound potential, but entering now is like gambling with your life. --- A rebound from the bottom sounds good, but the question is where is the bottom? --- Funds are accumulating while dispersing at the same time, this contradiction is a signal before a major crash. --- The meme coin rebound is indeed fierce this time, but PEPE's stance is a bit forced.

actually, the volume-to-market-cap ratio here is a textbook case of what we'd call "capital inefficiency" in traditional finance... think of it like this: massive inflow but minimal price movement signals serious distribution happening beneath the surface. ceteris paribus, when leverage positions this crowded, liquidation cascade becomes inevitable. fair point on the support zone though.

7084% this number is really hard to believe, but now that I see whales selling off, I'm a bit scared.

7084% That number looks impressive, but now I feel a bit uneasy watching whale movements. With such high leverage, a sudden dump would lead to a bloodbath. Honestly, the trading volume is so large, yet the price increase is so small. Doesn't this tell us that someone is疯狂出货? I don't really believe in the 0.01 psychological price level. Wait, isn't the EMA breaking below 25 a pretty clear signal? Why are so many people still adding leverage? Are these people trying to get liquidated? I just can't understand. The potential for a bottom rebound is indeed there, but it depends on when the whales finish unloading. Otherwise, this could be a trap. I now seriously doubt those analyses claiming there is support. Once the 8.7 billion trading volume data is out, any support level is pointless. With such obvious fund dispersion, who would dare to buy in? No matter how exaggerated the increase, it depends on how fierce the subsequent selling pressure is. The current issue isn't the rebound itself but whether the liquidation chain will be triggered.
