Alpaca’s price surge coincided with the convergence of two lines forming a falling wedge pattern, a technical setup that typically signals further upside potential. 
The token broke above the key resistance level at $0.1940, the highest point on June 5, and surpassed both the 200-day and 50-day moving averages. This move indicates that bullish momentum is currently strong. 
Alpaca reached a high of $0.2778, aligning with the weak, stop &amp; reverse level of the Murrey Math Lines tool. 
However, there are signs that it has gotten highly overbought. The Relative Strength Index rose to the extremely overbought point at 86 while the Money Flow Index indicator moved to 97.&nbsp; 
While these overbought conditions reflect strong bullish momentum, they also suggest that a sharp reversal could occur as the initial excitement from the exchange listings fades. If a pullback happens, the key reference level to monitor would be $0.1940, which aligns with the major support/resistance pivot point of the Murrey Math Lines.
