Technical Analysis: Daily Chart Analysis

$PENGU spent a stretch grinding sideways just above support while a descending trendline pressed down from above, forming a classic descending triangle on the daily chart. 

That kind of squeeze between flat support and falling resistance usually resolves with a decisive move once one side finally gives way.Daily Chart Analysis

Here, the breakout confirmed to the upside, with the price clearing the triangle structure and pushing toward the resistance zone above. 

If momentum keeps building, this pudgy penguins price prediction points toward $0.009494 first, then $0.010719, as the bigger level if buyers stay in control. 

If instead the price gets rejected at the first resistance around $0.008211 and sellers become active again, a pullback toward the $0.006824 support becomes the more likely path.

Triangle Breakout: The moment the price finally clears one side of a converging triangle structure, confirming the next directional move.

Liquidation: The forced closing of a leveraged position once losses eat through a trader's available margin.

Rejection: When a price approaches a resistance level and gets pushed back down rather than breaking through it.

Market Cap: A coin's price multiplied by its circulating supply, used to gauge overall size relative to other assets.
