Pepe price forecast amid new exchanges listings
Pepe (PEPE) price is trading with a bullish bias, consolidating within an ascending triangle chart pattern. This chart pattern occurs in a mid-trend and signals a likely continuation of the overall bullish trend.
An increase in buying pressure could see Pepe price rise toward the upper boundary of the governing pattern at $0.00000138, denoting a 20% upswing. A breakout above this level could set the path for further gains.
The overall outlook of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 60 supports this bullish outlook, forecasting more room for the upside before PEPE is considered overbought.

Conversely, a breakout below the uptrend line of the governing chart pattern could see investors recording losses. Traders should watch for a decisive one-hour candlestick close under $0.000000886, as this support acts as the invalidation level for the bullish outlook.
