PI trades at $0.09723, holding right at its EMA cluster after climbing along a rising trendline from its July lows.
Both the shorter and longer EMAs are converging just below the current price, a zone that has acted as support in recent sessions.
The key factor now is whether PI can break above the $0.09976 resistance and confirm the ascending triangle breakout. A sustained move above this level could open the way toward $0.11094 and then $0.11893.
However, if PI fails to break the resistance and loses the rising trendline, the bullish setup could weaken, and the price may move toward the $0.09380 and $0.08975 support levels.

Bull case: Holding above the EMA cluster near $0.09412 to $0.09445 and clearing $0.09976 would open the path toward $0.11094 and then $0.11893, with the Protocol 27 upgrade on September 15 as a potential catalyst.
Bear case: A close below $0.09380 would expose $0.08975 and put the rising trendline support in question.
Without a clean breakout first, the upgrade could turn into a sell-the-news event if the price fails to hold current levels.

Reclaim of $0.09380
$0.13756 is the highest resistance marked on the chart.
Getting there would require PI to first clear $0.09976, then $0.11094 and $0.11893 in turn, a multi-stage move rather than a single leg.
According to CoinGabbar analysts, the Protocol 27 upgrade gives PI a real near-term catalyst, but the price still needs to clear $0.09976 to confirm the rising trendline is holding.
The $0.09380 to $0.09976 zone is what matters heading into September 15.
