It is consolidating at the 50-day and 200-day moving averages.<\/p>\n<p>Pepe\u2019s price has moved above the 23.6% Fibonacci Retracement level. It has also formed a cup-and-handle pattern, with the upper side at $0.00001622 and the lower side at $0.0000052.<\/p>\n<p>The recent dip is likely part of the formation of the handle section of the C&amp;H pattern. Therefore, if this pattern works out, the coin will likely bounce back and retest the all-time high of $0.00002712, about 135% above the current level. This view will be confirmed if it rises above the cup\u2019s upper side at $0.00001622.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pepe coin price retreated this week as whales continued selling and the crypto market sell-off intensified.\u00a0 Pepe (PEPE), the second-biggest meme coin on Ethereum (ETH), plunged to a low of&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2394,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2393","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cryptocurrency"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2393","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2393"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2393\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2395,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2393\/revisions\/2395"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2394"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2393"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2393"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2393"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
