The exposure helped boost PENGU memecoin ‘s price by 16% in a single day, with the rally continuing to an intraday peak of $0.0100 on June 25. With this surge, PENGU price has edged closer to the upper boundary of the falling wedge pattern that has been forming since early May. The projected breakout level near $0.0106 is now just approximately 8% above the current price of $0.0098.

The RSI currently stands at 48, having recovered from oversold conditions earlier this month. The MACD line has just crossed above the signal line in a bullish crossover, occurring near the zero line — a signal often interpreted as the beginning of a possible upward move. The price is also retesting the 20-day EMA at $0.00989. A daily close above this level would confirm a short-term shift in momentum and strengthen the case for a breakout from the falling wedge. If the breakout above $0.0106 is confirmed with strong volume and follow-through, the next upside targets are $0.0115 (50-day SMA), followed by $0.0130 and $0.0150 — the previous swing highs — and ultimately $0.0200 — the projected target based on the height of the falling wedge pattern. A breakdown below $0.0080 would invalidate the wedge structure and expose the price to further downside, potentially toward $0.0070.
