Dogecoin (DOGE) price has dropped over 30% from its yearly high of $0.48 earlier this month. This decline is linked to multiple bearish signals, increasing the likelihood of further price decreases.
As the year draws to a close and bearish pressure mounts, technical indicators point to a further decline in DOGE’s price, possibly slipping below $0.20. Here is why.
A “Death Cross” pattern has been formed on the DOGE/USD one-day chart. This is a bearish pattern that is formed when an asset’s short-term moving average (often the 50-day moving average) crosses below its long-term moving average (commonly the 200-day moving average), suggesting a shift in market sentiment from positive to negative.
Readings from the DOGE/USD chart showed that DOGE’s 50-day MA crossed below its 200-day MA on December 18, and the meme coin’s price has since plummeted by 20%. This crossover is a bearish signal, suggesting a weakening trend, with recent price declines outweighing long-term price gains.
Currently, DOGE is trading below the resistance at $0.33. Persistent spikes in selling pressure at this level could drive its price down to the support at $0.28.
Should this support fail, DOGE’s next key level lies at $0.23. If bulls cannot defend this level, the meme coin could slip below the $0.20 zone, potentially reaching $0.17.
On the other hand, a successful breach of the $0.33 resistance level could propel DOGE towards its yearly peak of $0.48.
