Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) – A prominent memecoin on the Solana platform – has attracted investor attention with impressive performance over the past week. Today, with a 12% increase, PENGU has reached an important threshold, opening the door for a strong upward trend in the future.
Currently, the price of PENGU has increased by over 12.13% in 24 hours and is trading at $0.0081. At the same time, trading volume during this period has surged by 170%, reflecting growing interest from investors and traders.
The sudden spike in trading volume not only indicates active market participation but also shows confidence in the positive trend of this memecoin.
Based on data from derivative analysis tools like Coinglass and the Nansen analytics platform, it’s evident that both investors and traders are reinforcing PENGU’s upward momentum by placing long-term buy positions and accumulating more tokens.
According to PENGU’s liquidation map, day traders focused on two key price levels: $0.00735 on the downside and $0.00824 on the upside. At these levels, long-term leveraged buy positions worth $3.11 million have been established, while short-term leveraged sell positions worth $815,000 are at risk of liquidation.
This data indicates a bullish market sentiment, as traders believe PENGU is unlikely to drop below the $0.00735 level in the near future.

Technical analysis from Coinphoton shows that PENGU is at a critical level on the daily chart, facing a key resistance at $0.00815.
Since early February, this memecoin has repeatedly tested this level but has not succeeded in breaking through, leading to price corrections. However, if PENGU can close the daily candle above $0.0085, it could open the door for a strong rally, with potential gains of 22% to reach $0.0104.

At the time of writing, the Average Directional Index (ADX) – a trend strength indicator – is at 20.11, below the critical threshold of 25. This suggests that current momentum is not strong enough to confirm a clear breakout.
These positive signals have sparked many optimistic forecasts from industry experts. On social media platform X, an analyst shared a daily chart of PENGU, indicating signs that this memecoin may be breaking a long-term downtrend. Highlighting the breakout potential, the analyst predicted: “A strong rally of up to +250%.”
