According to the expert, there are two variations of the bullish type Dogecoin performance. Such a situation is considered the first indication that the market is ready for a reversal soon. Basically, even though the price continues to fall, forming a series of lower lows, it seems that the indicators are not following suit.
This divergence is seen as an indicator of weak seller power. In other words, the downward momentum begins to fade, even though the price has not shown any changes yet. At the same time, this suggests that buyers may slowly intervene at lower levels.
Looking ahead, Dogecoin price is currently moving within a narrow range. If it can stay above $0.092, there is a chance of a bounce back to $0.096. But if it falls below the support level, the price may fall further towards $0.090.
Why did the price of DOGE drop today?
Notably, the current decline in Dogecoin price does not appear to be caused by any specific news related to DOGE itself. Instead, it mostly follows the broader trend of the cryptocurrency market, especially the decline in Bitcoin.
Currently, the cryptocurrency market is in the red, down 1.3% to $2.51 trillion. Bitcoin is leading this downtrendis trading at $74,389, with a decline of 2%. There are also other major coins like Ethereum, XRP, and Solana, causing notable losses. DOGE has also reversed this negative trend, trading in the red today.
This indicates that Dogecoin’s price is still heavily influenced by the broader market. When Bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency market decline, DOGE tends to follow. However, the current decline is relatively moderate. This shows that the currency is holding up better than some other assets during this decline.
Meanwhile, trading activity picked up. This indicates that more traders are active now. Since the price is falling along with rising trading volume, this indicates the possibility of increased selling pressure.
