Popcat Bounces from Correction Lows: Technical Signals Point to New Uptrend Breakout

Daily Chart Trend: Since early April, after a significant upsurge at the start of the month, POPCAT entered a phase of explosive growth culminating between May 7th and May 12th (peaking as high as $0.63 intraday, unprecedented in the price history), followed by a rough, volatile correction that sharply retraced the gains to the $0.43-0.45 area.
Recent Price Movements: After the deep retracement, price stabilized in the $0.42-$0.47 region. The last 24h show a bounce from $0.43 to the current $0.45, with repeated tests of both support and resistance in this band.
Short-Term Trend: The last 8 hours present a stair-step movement upward, with higher lows and recapturing of previous intraday losses, suggesting a near-term bullish reversal.

Major Resistance: $0.47 - $0.48 (recent rejection zone), $0.50+ (psychological and prior support during distribution after the May peak)
Immediate Resistance: $0.455 - $0.46 (tested repeatedly in the last 2 hours)
Support: $0.42 - $0.43 (multiple intraday bounces), $0.41 (bottom of May correction), $0.40 (major psychological round number)

Volume Trends: Recent 24-h volume is robust (average 60M+ per hour), sustaining liquidity. Notably, volume diminished on the sell-down from the highs (decreasing bearish momentum), but is picking up again on bounces, indicating buyer re-engagement. The latest strong hourly candles (upward) showed 2-4M volume surges, indicating that breakouts are increasingly supported.
Volatility: A significant component. High intraday ranges (4-7% swings) but decreasing volatility since the May 12 correction, which is typical as price consolidates before a larger move.

Recent Patterns: Past 8 hours show multiple hammer-like candles off $0.43, suggesting accumulation. The last closing candle was a bullish engulfing over previous small-bodied candles, showing a reversal intent. Daily price action appears to be forming a higher low after the retracement, with sequential slightly higher closes.
Intraday Structuring: Intraday dips are aggressively bought (see 17:00, 19:00, and 20:00 spikes), reflecting buying pressure near current levels.

Short-term EMA (e.g., 12/26): Not explicitly provided, but observing the price action over the last 12 and 26 hours, the moving average has turned up slightly. The last 8 hours are trading above the short-term average, consistent with a developing uptrend.
Longer-term SMA (50/100): Given the explosive surge and subsequent correction, the 50-period average is below the current price ($0.38-$0.41 est.), suggesting longer-term support is holding and trend is still fundamentally bullish.

RSI: While we don’t have exact readings, the nature of price action suggests RSI recently recovered from oversold during the post-hype sell-off and is now rising towards neutral (perhaps 45-55), consistent with a new accumulation phase.
MACD: Implied crossover in the very short term, especially after flattening for 1-2 days following the May drawdown.
Stochastic: Appears to be exiting the oversold region with a bullish cross, further confirming short-term reversal.

Drawing from the swing low ($0.125, early April) to swing high ($0.639, May 12):
- 0.382: ~$0.38 | 0.50: ~$0.38 | 0.618: ~$0.29
- After correcting 35%+ from the high, current levels are around the 0.5-0.618 retracement, a traditional spot for reversals in bullish cycles.

Order Flow: Recent wicks to $0.43 are rapidly filled, and breakout volume is clustering at $0.45+. Indicates traders are positioning for a move up, with sell walls thinning above $0.46.

Sentiment transitioned from exuberant (May 7-12) to extremely fearful (May 15-17), now entering cautious optimism as the sell-off abates and higher lows form.
Late-stage correction + stabilization typically precede new impulse legs if the underlying trend is intact. Social and market cycles point toward further upside as more participants shift from despair/fear to hope (early stages of a new leg up).

REWARD: Recovery from the bottom supports a potential measured move to the $0.50+ zone (minimum). If breakout consolidates, the longer-term target could be $0.55+.
RISK: Break below $0.43 would negate the structure and could trigger further stops to $0.40 and $0.38.
Trade Setup: Favor entering on a retest toward $0.445 (slight pullback), with a tight stop below $0.432. Target $0.50, with trailing stops advised in case of rapid upward extension. Risk-reward is favorable at 3:1.
