Pepe (PEPE) fell below a daily support level on Thursday and declined by 2.5% on Friday. On-chain data shows that holders are selling their assets and intensifying selling pressure, which could lower the frog-themed meme coin price in the coming days.

PEPE price risks 10% drop after breaking below key support level

Pepe broke below the daily support level at $0.0000105 on Thursday. As of Friday, it continues to decline by 2.5% and trades at $0.0000102.

If the former daily support level at $0.0000105 acts as resistance, PEPE could crash 10% and retest its July 15 daily low of $0.0000092.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart has dropped below its neutral level of 50, and the Awesome Oscillator (AO) is nearing a fall below its neutral zero level. If both indicators stay in these bearish zones, PEPE’s price could experience further declines.

If PEPE closes below the ascending trendline established in mid-April, it could decline by an additional 18% and revisit its July 5 low of $0.0000076.

PEPE/USDT daily chart

On-chain data provider Santiment’s Network Realized Profit/Loss (NPL) indicator computes a daily network-level Return On Investment (ROI) based on the coin’s on-chain transaction volume. Simply put, it is used to measure market pain. Strong spikes in a coin’s NPL indicate that its holders are, on average, selling their bags at a significant profit. On the other hand, strong dips imply that the coin’s holders are, on average, realizing losses, suggesting panic sell-offs and investor capitulation.

In PEPE’s case, the NPL indicator jumped from -23,432 to 6.59 million on Thursday. These upticks have been seen since mid-July, which indicates that the holders are, on average, selling their bags at a significant profit and increasing selling pressure.

On the other hand, during this event, the PEPE’s supply on exchanges, which has continued to increase since July 4, rose by 1%. This development indicates that investors are selling their PEPE tokens on exchanges, which increases selling activity and adds credence to the bearish thesis.

Even though the on-chain metric and technical analysis point to a bearish outlook, if Pepe’s daily candlestick closes above $0.0000131, the bearish thesis would be invalidated by producing a higher high on the daily timeframe. In this case, the Pepe price would rally 20% to the June 1 high of $0.0000157.
