Big on-chain holders are still unloading, yet the order book in this hour has already flipped positions and the momentum has warmed up—don’t weld these two books into a permission to chase.

News/Funding verified: FXStreet / Santiment (around 2026-09-10). Big wallets holding 10 million–100 million coins have, since 8/25, collectively sold off about 800 billion PEPE. In the same period, smaller wallets (around 100k–10 million coins) only net-bought about 5.06 billion PEPE in total; their sell volume is roughly 15.8x their accumulation volume. Same article: the daily chart was once pushed back near the 200-day moving average around $0.00000364—at the time, spot was around $0.00000348. Another hard fact: Canary Capital’s spot PEPE ETF Form S-1 was filed with the SEC in 2026-04 (verifiable on EDGAR) and to this day remains “filed, not approved.” On-chain is distributing while the product is still queued—none of this means the short-term structure has already been repaired.

Look at the key points closely. Contracts tracking 1000PEPE: current price about 0.003315 (per coin about 0.00000332), down roughly −3.54% over 24 hours, contract volume about 252 million USDT. The follow-through line (SAR) is around 0.003230, and price is about 0.000085 above it—plainly: the short-term “follow-up / stop-parabola” has flipped over; it’s not just grinding against the line. Momentum J is about 93.00 (K78.55 / D71.32)—hot, like you’ve mashed the accelerator too hard. Compare with today 10:35 as a backdrop: around 0.003280, daily drop about −5.20%, SAR below by about 0.000045, J≈53.8. From “break-line, too cool” grinding into “flipped, too hot”—the shift isn’t thick. 24h high about 0.003446, low about 0.003218; open interest notionals about 63 million; funding rate about +0.0031%. The daily chart is still green, but the 1-hour is hot—“a flip-back recovery” and “still pressing the accelerator all the way” aren’t the same sentence.

The upside you see and the persistence the market is willing to give are often not the same thing.
