Pi Coin (PI) witnessed a sharp 32% price surge in the past 24 hours, sparking hopes of a sustained rally. However, the optimism was short-lived as investors seemingly used the brief rally to offload holdings.
The altcoin’s momentum now faces growing pressure, with technical indicators signaling a potential breakdown if selling continues.
Pi Coin Outflows Surge
The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator paints a concerning picture for Pi Coin. Over the past 24 hours, CMF has recorded a steep downtick, falling to a near two-month low. This trend reflects massive capital outflows, suggesting that traders may have taken profits quickly instead of holding for further gains.
Such sharp declines in CMF often signal growing bearish sentiment. Pi Coin holders appear to have exited their positions amid the intra-day 32% price rise, leading to heavy outflows. This sudden reversal in sentiment could limit near-term recovery prospects, especially if investor confidence continues to wane.

On the macro level, Pi Coin’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is showing a different story. The RSI has spiked sharply over the last 24 hours, moving from the bearish territory below 50.0 to the positive zone. This upward shift usually suggests renewed bullish momentum and the potential for continued short-term gains.
However, despite the improving RSI, the ongoing outflows may hinder the rally. If selling persists, it could offset the positive technical momentum, keeping Pi Coin price range-bound.

PI Price May Struggle To Rally
Pi Coin’s price stands at $0.229 at the time of writing, holding right above its critical support at the same level. This zone could serve as a launchpad for a potential rebound, provided buyers step back in with conviction.
If Pi Coin manages to hold and bounce from $0.229, it could climb toward $0.256 or even higher. Such a move would indicate renewed market strength and partial recovery from recent profit-taking.

Conversely, if the $0.229 support fails, the price may drop to $0.209 and potentially retest $0.198. This would invalidate the bullish outlook and confirm a short-term bearish continuation for Pi Coin.
