The cryptocurrency market this week has been filled with sharp moves, and one token drawing major attention is Pi Network (PI). Earlier this month, speculation around a major announcement by the Pi Core Team sent the price soaring, only to be followed by a steep correction after the actual news broke — a classic “Buy the rumor, sell the news” event.

On May 08, when the team hinted at a major ecosystem development, PI surged over 160% in just a few days, peaking at $1.66. However, after the $100 million venture fund was officially announced on May 14, the token tumbled sharply, losing 60% of its value.

Now, today PI is once again flashing bullish signals — climbing nearly 8% intraday — and this time, a key technical breakout may be signaling a real rebound in the making.

Falling Wedge Breakout Signals Potential Upside

On the 3-hour chart, PI had formed a falling wedge pattern, a bullish reversal structure that typically appears after a sharp price drop. The pattern emerged after the token’s steep correction from the $1.66 high, bottoming out around $0.66, where buyers re-entered the market.

With today’s bounce, PI has broken out of the wedge, accompanied by a bullish push above the 200-period moving average — a significant trend indicator that is now acting as fresh support.

From the current trading price of $0.75, the next key level to watch is the 100 MA resistance at $0.84. A successful close above this level would further validate the breakout, potentially fueling a continuation rally.

Key upside targets include:

  • $0.96 – recent horizontal resistance
  • $1.33 – mid-level resistance zone
  • $1.66 – previous local high

These levels represent a potential 120% upside from current prices if momentum continues.

What’s Next for PI?

To sustain this bullish breakout, PI must hold above the 200 MA support and make a strong move past the 100 MA resistance at $0.84. Doing so would solidify the technical breakout and likely attract more traders looking to ride the next leg up.
