DOGE Price Action
At the time of writing, DOGE was up by 0.17% to $0.1151.
Technical Indicators
DOGE will need to move through the day’s $0.1156 pivot to make a run on the First Major Resistance Level at $0.1166. DOGE would need the broader crypto market to support a move back through to $0.1160 levels.
An extended rally would test the Second Major Resistance Level at $0.1182 and resistance at $0.12. The Third Major Resistance Level sits at $0.1208.
Failure to move through the pivot would bring the First Major Support Level at $0.1140 into play. Barring an extended sell-off, DOGE should steer clear of sub-$0.1140. The Second Major Support Level sits at $0.1130.
Looking at the EMAs and the 4-hourly candlestick chart (below), it is a bearish signal. DOGE remains below the 50-day EMA, currently at $0.1197.
