Popcat records 22% spike, can bulls target the $1 mark?
Popcat, a meme coin on the Solana blockchain, recorded an impressive run, making it the top gainer among the top 100 crypto assets over the past day.
The recent 50-basis-point rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve has triggered bullish sentiment across the crypto market, which Popcat (POPCAT) has leveraged, recording a 22% rise in price in the past 24 hours.
Popcat is trading at $0.8738 at the time of writing, extending its gains with a 39.03% surge in the last seven days. Its market cap now stands at $856.4 million, with a $135 million daily-hour volume signaling surging investor interest.
A pattern contributing to the surge was the rounded bottom formation on the daily chart, which often indicates a potential bullish reversal. Most of the rally occurred in the last trading session, with Popcat gaining nearly 19% yesterday, its largest intraday gain in a month.
The Fibonacci pivot points suggest resistance at various levels, starting at $0.88 and moving higher to the all-time high at $1.09. As the bulls look to again surpass the $1 price level, the $0.88 resistance threshold presents a formidable roadblock.
On the downside, immediate support lies at $0.75, with lower supports at $0.54 and $0.32. The price recently pushed above the critical $0.46 level, which was highlighted by analysts as a key indicator for a bullish breakout.
According to an X post by the pseudonymous analyst Impulsive Dom, this breach signals a solid upward momentum, with the possibility of Popcat targeting the $2 to $3 range on a third Elliott Wave push, provided the momentum continues.
Additionally, the Williams %R indicator, which currently stands at -2.93, points to an overbought condition. Readings closer to zero indicate that the asset might be nearing a short-term top, and the market could face selling pressure soon. A pullback from this level is possible, given the recent sharp rise.
Looking ahead, if Popcat maintains its momentum, the $1 target could come into play. However, caution is advised, as failure to hold above $0.75 could lead to a retest of lower support levels near $0.54 and $0.32.
