Over the last day, the value of the coin dropped by about 4.59%, according to the transaction.

The total cryptocurrency market has been moving a bit slow recently, and that&#8217;s contributing to the negative trend for Pepe.<\/p>\n<p>Although the price is lower, plenty of trading is still going on with Pepe. The trading volume in one day has actually increased by around 3.90% to $421.28 million. That indicates that even with the price decline, individuals are continuing to buy and sell the meme coin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical Indicators Point Downward<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Glancing at some of the technical charts that traders follow, things don&#8217;t appear too good for Pepe at this moment.

Another one, the RSI, is in what&#8217;s termed &#8220;oversold&#8221; territory, at 24.55. This generally indicates there&#8217;s been considerable selling pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Data also shows that money has been flowing out of Pepe since the middle of January, which isn\u2019t a good sign for its price. Some analysts are even predicting that if Pepe stays below a certain price point, around $0.0000075, it could fall another 20% to about $0.00000585.<\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image from Gemini Imagen, chart from TradingView <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A big player in the world of Pepe coin has cashed out a large chunk of their holdings, causing the price of the meme coin to wobble.
