Key Takeaways
Today, May 21, we saw a notable rise in cryptocurrency prices, with spikes across the market. However, memecoin FLOKI and PEPE are leading the way with double-digit increases from yesterday.
FLOKI gained around 17%, while PEPE rose by 33%. Interest in memecoins remains unfazed, even with other fundamental factors driving the market increases. What’s next for the price of these cryptos, and can they reach new all-time highs soon?
FLOKI‘s price rose from $0.000027 on February 5, skyrocketing to $0.0003 by March 11, a impressive tenfold increase. However, the token faced resistance and fell back to $0.0002 by March 18, suggesting a possible end to its upward trajectory.
Wave analysis views this movement from early February to mid-March as the peak of a bullish phase in a five-wave pattern. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart, previously in overbought territory, declined along with the price, further signaling a trend reversal.
By April 13, FLOKI had dropped by 60%, reaching a low of $0.00011. The price has since rebounded to $0.0002, encountering horizontal resistance and forming an ascending triangle pattern, indicating potential for a new bullish phase.
The bullish phase is confirmed, as FLOKI broke above the $0.0002 resistance level. If it continues increasing, the price could surge past $0.0004 in its fifth wave, a new all-time high.
Since its launch in April last year, PEPE has experienced significant growth, escalating from $0.0000027 to a peak of $0.00001 by March 15, achieving an impressive 1,115% increase. This surge began on February 5 from a lower point of $0.0000008.
After dropping to $0.000004 on April 13, the price started to recover but was still within the bounds of a descending triangle. On April 22, it broke above it and continued rising to a new all-time high of $0.000012 today.
This is likely the last wave of a larger five-wave impulse from October last year, but there is more room for the upside. Our next likely target would be at $0.00002, another 70% increase from the current levels.
