PEPE Price Prediction: A Break Above Resistance is Possible
PEPE may break through its current resistance level of $0.000012 if fueled by the persistent bullish sentiment in the market. This bullish bias can be gleaned from readings from its Parabolic Stop and Reverse (SAR) indicator. At press time, the dots of this indicator lie under PEPE’s price.
An asset’s Parabolic SAR indicator tracks its price trends and identifies potential reversal points. When its dots rest under an asset’s price, it is a bullish signal. It indicates that an uptrend is likely and that traders may consider holding or buying the asset.
If PEPE breaks above resistance, its next price target will be $0.000013.
