Pepe Price Analysis: Can $PEPE Clear Its Weekly High Near $0.0000054?

Pepe Weekly Chart Analysis (Source: TradingView)

$PEPE hasn’t cleared it yet, but this week’s move is the closest attempt in nearly two years. $PEPE trades near $0.00000507, up 26.75% for the week after opening at $0.0000040 and touching a weekly high of $0.0000054, putting price right back above the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement at $0.00000537. That level, drawn from the 2024 all-time high down to this year’s low, hasn’t held a sustained close since the sharp selloff that began in late 2024.

Both weekly EMAs sit below price, the 20-week at $0.00000357 and the 50-week at $0.00000486, reflecting a token that’s spent most of this year clawing back from deeply oversold territory. Weekly RSI has jumped to 61.16, its highest reading in over a year, backing up that this move has real strength behind it rather than being a one-week spike.

Meanwhile, $PEPE trades near $0.00000509, up 25% over the past 24 hours as it extends Monday’s rally, according to current data.

The daily chart shows a fresh Supertrend buy signal firing as price broke decisively above its recent range, the third such signal this year after flips in February and July that both preceded multi-week rallies.

Bull Bear Power has spiked to 0.00000212, its highest reading since the August breakout that first pushed $PEPE out of its summer range.

Pepe News: $PEPE Leads a Broad Meme Coin Rally as Bitcoin Nears $87,000

Pepe’s 25% surge over 24 hours makes it the best performer among the 100 largest cryptocurrencies by market value, according to CoinGecko data. The rally pushed $PEPE’s market value back above $2 billion, with more than $1 billion in tokens changing hands over the day. Even after the move, $PEPE remained more than 80% below its all-time high of $0.00002803, set in December 2024.

The rally landed alongside a broader market surge. Bitcoin climbed 7% to $86,965, closing in on $87,000, fueled in part by $919 million in short liquidations across the market.

Ethereum added 6% to $2,788, Solana rose 7.5% to $118.60, and XRP gained 7% to $1.52. Meme coins led the charge broadly, Dogwifhat jumped 18%, Dogecoin gained 14% to trade just under $0.10, and smaller tokens Mubarak and Useless rose 29% and 24% respectively. Outside the meme basket, Bittensor gained 16% and Sui climbed 15%.

Pepe News: September Is Already One of Pepe’s Stronger Months on Record

September has historically been an unusually reliable month for $PEPE, and 2026 is tracking well above that pattern. Monthly returns data shows September carrying an average gain of +18.5% and a median of +18.4% across prior years, making it one of only a few months with consistently positive seasonality for the token.

Year September Return
2023 -0.77%
2024 +37.6%
2025 -3.48%
2026 (MTD) +40.6%
Average +18.5%
Median +18.4%

This year’s month-to-date gain of 40.6% already exceeds both the historical average and the strongest prior September on record, meaning today’s continued strength is pushing $PEPE into territory it hasn’t reached in this specific month before.

Pepe Derivatives: Longs Take the Recent Hit After Shorts Got Squeezed Earlier

$PEPE Derivative Analysis (Source: Coinglass)

$PEPE derivatives volume exploded 267.63% to $1.72 billion over the past 24 hours, while open interest climbed 33.62% to $421.76 million, fresh money coming in rather than traders just shuffling existing bets.

The liquidations flipped as the rally went on. Shorts took the bigger hit over the full day, losing $2.52 million against $1.56 million for longs, the squeeze that drove $PEPE’s initial surge. But zoom into the last hour and it’s the opposite, longs lost $427.23K against almost nothing for shorts, traders who jumped in late now paying for it as the move cools. Binance’s positioning sits close to even at 0.97, while OKX still leans long at 1.92.

Metric Value What it shows
Derivatives volume (24h) $1.72B, up 267.63% Trading activity exploded
Open interest $421.76M, up 33.62% Fresh money entering the market

Pepe Price Prediction: Bullish and Bearish Scenarios for This Week

Bullish Case, Target: $0.0000062

$PEPE holds above $0.0000042 and clears this week’s high near $0.0000054. Continued strength in the broader meme coin rally and Bitcoin’s push toward $87,000 could support a run at the 0.786 Fib at $0.0000062, with the 2024 pivot near $0.0000073 the next test above that.

Bearish Case, Risk Level: $0.0000036 (20-Week EMA)

$PEPE loses $0.0000042 and the recent long liquidations extend into broader profit-taking. A fading of the broader risk-on move or a Bitcoin pullback from its highs would fit that scenario, exposing the 20-week EMA at $0.0000036 as the next real support.

FAQs

What is the Pepe price prediction this week?

$PEPE could extend toward $0.0000054 and then $0.0000062 if it holds above $0.0000042. Losing that level risks a slide toward the 20-week EMA at $0.0000036.

Why did Pepe surge this week?

$PEPE led a broad meme coin and crypto rally that also pushed Bitcoin toward $87,000 on $919 million in short liquidations, with Dogecoin, Dogwifhat, and other meme tokens posting double-digit gains in the same session.

Is September historically a strong month for Pepe?

Yes, relatively. September carries a historical average return of +18.5% and a median of +18.4%, and 2026’s month-to-date gain of 40.6% already exceeds both figures.

Are Pepe traders still bullish after this week’s rally?

Mixed in the short term. While the broader 24-hour period saw heavier short liquidations, the most recent hours have shown longs taking the bigger losses, suggesting some of the traders who chased the rally late are now getting squeezed as momentum cools.
