Pepe Rallies 40% In 7 Days Outpaces Dogecoin, Shiba Inu: What's Next?

Pepe PEPE/USD has jumped over 40% in the last week, but traders are split on whether this rally has more room to run or if a correction is imminent.

Trader Notes: In a X post on May 14, MaxBecauseBTC pointed out that short-term PEPE holders, wallets that bought within the last 30 days, are beginning to climb again after four months of decline.

Historically, this kind of growth has preceded strong price moves, signaling that speculative interest is back and potentially fueling the current rally.

Despite this, Ali Martinez flagged a cautionary signal. The TD Sequential indicator on PEPE's daily chart is now flashing a sell signal, suggesting a potential near-term pullback.

Meanwhile, trader Koala remains bullish. He believes the strategy for PEPE is similar to other altcoins—buy on structural breakouts and target previous highs.

According to him, the coin has formed solid support and could soon push toward recent resistance levels.
