Hege's price has successfully broken above the key resistance level of $0.01045 and attempted to do the same with the subsequent threshold of $0.01223.
However, sellers have prevented the altcoin from overcoming this second technical barrier. HEGE has now entered a temporary consolidation period between $0.01045 and $0.01223.
If traders recognize HEGE's current price as a buying opportunity, the altcoin could make another attempt at the $0.01223 resistance level. Breaking through this mark could provide a solid foundation for HEGE to reach as high as $0.01434 in the short term.
Conversely, traders who decide to take profits may cause the Hege price to fall below the mentioned $0.01045 support line. Continued selling pressure could put HEGE at risk of dropping to the next technical safety net at $0.00899.
Technical Indicators Suggest Weakening Bullish Momentum
From a technical standpoint, indicators on HEGE's 4-hour chart suggest a potential decline in the price over the next 24 hours.
Specifically, both the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicate a loss of bullish strength for the cryptocurrency.
RSI readings have been declining over the past few hours, which is often interpreted as a sign of buyers losing strength relative to sellers. Furthermore, the RSI is currently at 88, indicating overbought conditions and potentially a sell signal.
Additionally, the MACD line has begun to flatten out above the MACD Signal line, which could be an early indication of a reversal in HEGE's bullish trend. An intersection between these two technical indicators within the next 24 hours could signal a short-term downtrend for the cryptocurrency.
While HEGE's price momentum weakens, investors continue to invest in the presale for layer-2 meme coin Pepe Unchained (PEPU), which has nearly reached $10 million in funding.
PEPU Unleashes PEPE's Full Potential
Thus far, the popular PEPE meme has been limited by the congested Ethereum network. As more tokens enter the Ethereum ecosystem rapidly, scalability issues have become apparent, resulting in slow transaction speeds and high network fees.
To address these limitations, Pepe Unchained (PEPU) will migrate PEPE to its own layer-2 network, allowing investors to access PEPE more affordably and efficiently through PEPU.
Interoperability between the Ethereum and Pepe Unchained blockchains will ensure seamless value transfer, providing token holders with the benefits of Ethereum's robust security while enjoying the lightning-fast speeds of the Pepe Unchained network.
This dual advantage has been cited by renowned crypto YouTuber ClayBro, with over 130k subscribers, as a reason for PEPU's bullish outlook even amidst the current market downturn.
Nearing $10 Million
Pepe Unchained has garnered significant investor attention during its ICO phase, raising over $9.9 million to date. A potential catalyst for this surge in investment is the 201% APY offered to early PEPU stakers, which is accessible to all participants.
Investors can purchase the token through a user-friendly widget on the project's website, accepting ETH, USDT, BNB, and bank cards. Once acquired, the tokens must be staked through the dedicated staking page on the website.
Individuals interested in acquiring PEPU at the most favorable price should act promptly as its price is scheduled to increase in less than 48 hours and at subsequent stages of the presale.
