PEPE is finally entering a critical phase as recent price action suggests the market is actively crowding out the bears ahead of a potential structural shift. Pseudonymous cryptocurrency analyst “The Composite Trader” claims that this move is less significant immediate plus and more on completing a controlled reversal and preventing further declines.
In post X on The Composite Trader Tuesday updated a setup he first described on January 5, explaining that PEPE’s piercing, bullish expansion earlier in the year was never going to be sustained. He described this move as manipulation and stated so price reversal the intended result was an annual opening.
PEPE stages reverse move to displace bears
The accompanying chart supports this narrative, illustrating the brutal downtrend that began in delayed 2025, with PEPE falling by almost 50%, and then following a curved descending channel. The analyst highlighted the break of the structure (BOS) at the lower level of the formation, followed by a short-term escalate to the area of USD 0.0065-0.0075. This upward movement was expressly called “manipulation” on the chart, increased in order to seek liquidity on the buyer’s side, in the absence of real demand to maintain higher prices.

According to the analyst, the ongoing PEPE price reversal is aimed at displacing current bearish positions before any confirmed trend change. The chart shows that the price of the meme coin has already corrected by approximately 33.21%, eliminating some profits achieved at the beginning of this year. The move closely aligns with The Composite Trader’s previous expectations that the yearly opening would be contested, which confirms downward trend of the market.
The analyst also noted that similar price patterns are emerging across other altcoin pairs, reflecting the broader situation impact of whale-driven movements. He stressed the importance of understanding the timing behind these reversals, suggesting that not every price change signals a sustained uptrend.
Furthermore, Composite Trader stated that the accumulation patterns and bullish reversal for PEPE will be confirmed when the time is right. Until then the market remains bearish with strategic price adjustments requiring patience from investors and traders.
The analyst predicts a greater decline in the PEPE price
Cryptocurrency analyst Davie Satoshi also did this common insight into PEPE price behavior and its potential next moves. He predicts that PEPE could fall even further if Bitcoin falls to $85,000 and $75,000. His analysis shows that PEPE’s price movement is currently closely linked to BTC, and the lower Bitcoin’s price, the more likely PEPE will follow it.
With the exception of PEPE, Satoshi predicts that all meme coins may enter a downtrend if Bitcoin is falling. Despite this bearish outlook, he believes PEPE will likely rebound and start growing again. The analyst expects the meme coin to reverse sharply and find novel support levels. He advises non-PEPE holders to take advantage of the current downtrend I buy dip.
