Momentum indicators show mixed picture
According to AMBCrypto’s analysis, Pump.fun’s rebound was matched by momentum signals. The Stochastic RSI surged to 92 after a bullish crossover, showing strong buying pressure.

However, despite the strengthening uptrend, the positive index of the Directional Movement Index (DMI) had yet to make a bullish crossover at press time.
To validate the strength of the uptrend, DMI must also make a bullish crossover.
If that happens, Pump.fun could test $0.0041 resistance. However, failure to hold momentum may drag PUMP back toward the $0.0032 support.
