Recent trading activities reveal that PEPE is under mounting selling pressure as its price falls below the critical $0.00000766 support level. This dip signals a further bearish move, with bears gaining control and eyeing further downside towards the $00000589. The break below this key level raises concerns among traders, as the possibility of deeper losses becomes increasingly likely. As momentum turns negative, this article aims to examine the implications of PEPE’s price slipping below a critical support level. It will delve into how this breakdown impacts market sentiment, and with the help of key indicators evaluate the likelihood of further declines. In the past 24 hours, PEPE has declined by 3.51%, reaching approximately $0.00000724. Its market capitalization stands at over $3 billion, with a trading volume exceeding $652 million. During this period, PEPE’s market cap and trading volume have decreased by 3.62% and 0.26% respectively. Market Sentiment Shifts As Price Falls Under Crucial Support PEPE’s price is exhibiting active bearish behavior, trading below the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) in the 4-hour timeframe. Since falling below the $0.00000766 support level, the crypto asset has remained steady, showing little sign of recovery. This sustained price action under a key moving average suggests that bearish momentum is firmly in control. As a result, the downward trend could likely extend further, especially if the price continues to struggle below this critical resistance level. Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates that PEPE could continue its decline toward the $0.00000589 support level. The signal line has fallen below 50% and is now trending around 37%, suggesting that bearish pressure remains strong in the market. On the 1-day, PEPE is still trading below the 100-day SMA and the trendline. It can be observed that the crypto asset is attempting a bearish move toward the $0.00000589 support level. With this recent bearish move, the decline could extend to other support levels. Lastly, the formation of the 1-day RSI suggests that PEPE is at greater risk of extending its decline. The signal line is currently hovering around 35% after failing to break above 50%, setting the stage for another drop toward the oversold zone. Potential Downside Targets: Where PEPE Could Be Headed Next Ongoing bearish pressure could push PEPE’s price down to the next support level at $0.00000589. A decisive break below this support could signal further bearish movement, potentially driving the asset toward the $0.00000566 support level and possibly even lower. However, if PEPE rebounds from the $0.00000589 level, it could retrace toward its previous high of $0.00001152. If the cryptocurrency breaks above this level, it could signal further upward momentum, potentially targeting the $0.00001313 resistance range and other higher levels.

Following a tumultuous start to the month, the cryptocurrency market has yet to shake off the early August blues. The story has not been very much different for the price of Bitcoin, which struggled to make an impact in the past week. With BTC’s price almost 20% adrift of its all-time high of $73.737, there have been increased calls for the premier cryptocurrency to return to the bull market. Interestingly, a recent on-chain observation shows that Bitcoin has witnessed substantial bearish pressure in the past two years. Bitcoin Spot CVD Persists In The Negative — What Does This Mean? In a recent post on the X platform, blockchain data company Glassnode revealed that the Bitcoin spot market has been experiencing a net-sell side bias over the past two years. This on-chain observation is based on the Spot Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator, which measures the net difference between buying and selling trade volumes. Related Reading: MATIC Set For Rebranding In Early September: Will Polygon Prices Recover After Sinking 65%? The Spot CVD metric is used by investors to assess the current market sentiment. It offers detailed insight into whether the bulls or bears are the dominant market participants. Typically, a positive Cumulative Volume Delta value implies more buying pressure in the market, while a negative value suggests that the sellers are in control. According to the latest data from Glassnode, the yearly median CVD value has been bouncing between -$22 million and -$50 million over the past two years. This trend suggests a net sell-side bias, with selling volume overshadowing buying volume in the spot market for some time now. While the persistence of a net-sell side bias suggests investors offloading their coins rather than accumulating, it does not necessarily imply a bearish condition for the Bitcoin market. It rather spotlights a cautious approach by the investors, with an overall decline in spot demand of BTC. Although it is difficult to say how the spot Cumulative Volume Delta will shift over the coming months, the metric is one that investors should look out for. This is especially relevant because a return of CVD to positive values could signal an increase in Bitcoin spot market demand, which could be favorable for the Bitcoin price. BTC Price At A Glance As of this writing, the price of Bitcoin is slightly above the $59,000 mark, having increased by more than 2.5% in the past 24 hours. This recent momentum, though, is not enough to wipe off the coin’s loss on the weekly timeframe. According to data from CoinGecko, the Bitcoin price is down by more than 2% in the past week.

The month of August has been largely uneventful for Bitcoin so far, with the premier cryptocurrency having struggled to reclaim the $65,000 price mark since August 2. Currently, Bitcoin is slightly below $60,000 as the bulls and bears seek to grab control in what has been a range-bound market for the past week. Interestingly, CryptoQuant analyst XBTManager has shared revelations that indicate the BTC market is likely to maintain its current bearish form for the time being. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bears in Control? Record Low Funding Rates on Binance Signal Market Shift Wide Spot-Perpetual Gap Spells Trouble For Bitcoin On August 16, XBTManager reported that Bitcoin’s Spot-Perpetual Price Gap, as tracked on the Binance exchange, is continually in a negative form indicating that the asset may record more price loss due to a sustained selling pressure. For context, a Spot-Perpetual Price gap occurs when there is a difference between the valuation of Bitcoin on the spot market which deals with the asset’s actual price, and on the perpetual markets which allow traders to deal in speculations of the Bitcoin’s future price. When the perpetual price is lower than the spot price as in the current case of Bitcoin, it indicates traders are massively offloading the asset in the perpetual futures market as they believe there could be an incoming price fall. Expectedly, XBTManager predicts this negative spot-perpetual gap will translate into a heightened selling pressure in the spot market as several traders will look to sell their assets and buy in the perpetual market thus taking advantage of the arbitrage to gain some profit. In the advent of such a reaction, deep liquidation hunts might occur i.e. where a large number of leverage positions are forcefully closed down, leading to a larger negative Spot-Perpetual Gap, and increased selling activity. However, XBTManager has noted a potential positive for Bitcoin in this uncanny situation. The analyst states that high selling pressure will likely result in an accumulation of multiple short portions on Bitcoin. Therefore, the instance of a sudden price gain might force these positions to close leading to some significant buying activity that could reduce the current negative Spot-Perpetual Price gap.
