This indicates strong buying momentum, though traders should be cautious as RSI nearing 70 can sometimes precede a short-term pullback.<\/p>\n<p>The recent price action reveals a pattern of higher highs and higher lows, confirming the bullish trend. However, the visible price wicks on recent candles imply some volatility and profit-taking at higher levels, which is typical in a strong rally.<\/p>\n<p>While \u201csell the news\u201d risks always exist after a listing, the proximity to Pi Day suggests the rally may have more legs than a typical exchange pump.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Pi Network community is buzzing with anticipation as the major cryptocurrency exchange Kraken officially announced it will list Pi coin for trading starting tomorrow, March 13.
