Dogecoin price rose 18.96% in the past week and gained 6.13% in the last 24 hours, trading at $0.2372.
At press time, Open interest rose 2.4% to $197.84 billion, while the Fear & Greed Index was at 68, indicating greed in the wider crypto market.
The 1-hour chart from CW shows DOGE price pressing against resistance at $0.24, with a concentrated sell wall at $0.25.
Buy support is strong at the $0.20-$0.21 range, which indicates an accumulation of price on dips.

CW observed that a break above the $0.25 was likely to trigger a powerful rally, since that level has been limiting the recent rallies.
Such a breakout can be supported by favourable macro conditions as Bitcoin dominance dropped 1% to 59.25% and the U.S. Dollar Index was down 0.22% at 98.01.
The balance of Bitcoin on exchanges also went down by 0.17% to 2.26 million BTC, indicating less selling supply in the wider crypto market.
Trader Tardigrade’s monthly analysis reveals an ascending broadening wedge pattern that corresponds to the pattern that preceded rallies in 2017 and 2021.

Meanwhile, a descending wedge has been retested with a 2-week chart, where the stochastic indicator is rising up out of oversold.

Wedge support has been hit a few times without a lower break, just as it has done in the past just prior to major price breakouts.
Highlighted “magnet” levels near previous highs mark potential target points if current conditions hold.
Crypto Patel supports this perspective, identifying the $0.150 level as high support and the Dogecoin price action in an ascending channel since the middle of 2022.
According to Patel, accumulation in the range of 0.23 to 0.18 can drive a push toward 0.50, 1.00, and 2.00 in case the market momentum gains pace in the current bull run.
The bullish tilt is confirmed by the monthly multi-indicator setup of Kev Capital, which depicts a new Stochastic RSI cross out of an oversold region and an RSI level of 56.09, which indicates moderate market strength.
The MACD histogram has gone positive, which is another point in favour of the continuation.

Based on the analysis, Dogecoin price is yet to make its biggest swing of this cycle, as with other altcoins in the previous bull markets at an early stage.

In the past, adoption spikes have been associated with large bull runs and the present levels indicate a solid foundation of active adoption.
Furthermore, IntoTheBlock positioning data indicates that there is an equal number of bullish and bearish traders in the last week, with 127 positions each.
This balance indicates a market that is ready to break decisively, with short-term resistance and long term bullish structures merging around the $0.25 level.
