Dogecoin’s Weekend Woes: Is It Time to Panic? 😱

by

In the latest revelation from the cryptic world of digital currencies, our astute analyst, Carlos Garcia Tapia, has unveiled a rather alarming four-hour chart of the DOGE/USDT trading pair on Binance. He warns, with a hint of dramatic flair, that Dogecoin may be on the precipice of a rather unsightly decline as the weekend approaches. “If the bears break this pattern, it’ll get ugly… especially since the weekend is coming,” he cautions, as if foreseeing a storm brewing on the horizon. 🌩️

Is a Dogecoin Price Crash Looming?

His chart, shared with the world via the enigmatic platform X, illustrates an ascending wedge formation that finds itself ensnared between a confluence of resistance at $0.338 and $0.343, while a notable support zone lurks ominously in the $0.31 region. Ah, the drama of it all!

As the chart reveals, higher lows (marked as “LL” for those who enjoy a bit of cryptic shorthand) form the lower boundary of this ascending wedge. Meanwhile, the overhead resistance, a rectangular zone around $0.338–$0.343, has repeatedly thwarted any upward price movements. This wedge, dear reader, appears to be compressing price action—often a setup for a significant breakout or a catastrophic breakdown. The tension is palpable! 🎭

Notably, a horizontal resistance zone around $0.34 stands out like a sore thumb. DOGE’s price has made several valiant attempts to breach this level, yet each time it has failed to secure a confirmed breakout, suggesting that sellers are firmly entrenched in their positions, defending their territory with the ferocity of a mother bear. 🐻

On the flip side, a green box spanning roughly $0.310 marks an area where buying interest has historically surged. Should the price tumble below that level, the chart ominously references a lower support marker near $0.262, indicating a potential plunge that could make even the most stoic investor weep. 😢

Our analyst, ever the sage, points to the impending weekend as a wildcard. Historically, lower trading volumes on Saturdays and Sundays can exacerbate volatility, leading to wild price swings. If Dogecoin fails to cling to its rising trend line—currently hovering around $0.328–$0.330—and liquidity thins out like a bad soup, the price could swiftly test the lower support around $0.310, or even slide toward the $0.262 zone if the selling momentum picks up speed. Hold onto your hats, folks!

While a breakout above $0.343 could invalidate this bearish setup, Tapia’s cautionary note underscores the significance of a potential breakdown from the wedge formation. Weekend price action often diverges from midweek patterns due to reduced participation, meaning a sharp move in either direction could unfold more quickly than usual. It’s a veritable rollercoaster ride! 🎢

DOGE Must Hold $0.31

The daily chart, a veritable tapestry of despair, supports Tapia’s thesis. Here, Dogecoin (DOGE) finds itself under increasing downward pressure, as price action clings desperately to a persistent downtrend line. After reaching a local high in December, DOGE has retreated below key exponential moving averages (EMAs). The 20-day EMA (currently at approximately $0.3457) and the 50-day EMA (near $0.3473) have both curved lower, signaling a waning short-term momentum. The plot thickens!

A cursory glance at the chart reveals that DOGE is now just slightly above the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement level, calculated around $0.313. This Fib zone has acted as the most crucial support since mid-December, but any decisive daily close beneath it could send traders into a frenzy. Traders are keeping a close eye on the 100-day EMA (around $0.3179), which is sandwiched just above this Fib level, like a reluctant guest at a party.

If the price fails to defend the area between $0.313 and $0.317,
