The potential for future price actions hinges on larger market dynamics and the activities of large holders.

How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for PEPE, measured when this story was written up on 21 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio data shows a buy ratio of 52.6% over the last hour, indicating that buyers are slightly outpacing sellers in the short term. This buying pressure remains steady over four hours at 55.5%, while the 24-hour buy ratio sits at 50.4%, suggesting a balanced but slightly bullish trend over the full day. The volume delta of +$1,663,612 in the last hour and +$5,949,273 over four hours reflects strong net inflows, whereas the 24-hour delta of +$288,103 shows a significant cooling of momentum compared to the intraday peaks. A positive volume delta means that the total value of buy orders exceeded sell orders during these periods. The cumulative volume delta (CVD) closed at +$8,777,244 over 24 hours, confirming that net buying pressure persisted throughout the day. Net buying occurred for 18 out of 24 hours, with spot volume reaching $33,592,434 and 112,880 trades executed.
The latest daily buy ratio of 49.3% sits at the 48th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.4% - ordinary for this coin.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for PEPE, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Comparing today's activity to the preceding week reveals that the 24-hour buy ratio of 50.4% is 1.5 percentage points lower than the seven-day average of 51.8%. This indicates that buying intensity has slightly weakened compared to the weekly norm, even though volume is 1.14 times the average. The coin experienced a price change of +18.7% over eight days, with a total volume delta of +$10,862,278 during that period. Net buying was recorded for four out of the seven days in the preceding week. This suggests that while today's volume is elevated, the buying pressure is less pronounced than the weekly average, marking a relatively ordinary day in terms of sentiment but high in volume.
