Frog-themed meme coin Pepe PEPE/USD has rallied 17% in the past 24 hours amid surging whale transactions, edging closer to the valuation of its rival dogwifhat WIF/USD.

What Happened: Full-time crypto trader Scient notes that Pepe is already breaking out from its one-day downtrend on lower time frames. However, he emphasizes that a clean break and close in a one-day time frame would be a strong indicator of a bullish continuation.

Scient also mentions a previous setup from two days ago that has achieved full take profit (TP) with a 28% move and is now waiting for a flip in the current market trend for the next setup.
