Dogecoin (DOGE) experienced a significant price increase on January 20th but faced a sharp decline the following day. Experts have observed the popular meme token trading within a downward formation’s support area for roughly two months, raising questions about whether it can reverse the trend or continue to suffer losses.
Technical analysis of DOGE’s daily time frame shows that the price has been trading within a rising parallel channel since June 2023. After breaking out of the channel in December and reaching $0.108, Dogecoin’s price fell back within the channel’s boundaries on January 3, 2024.
Since then, Dogecoin has made two unsuccessful attempts to rise. The second rejection coincided shortly after Elon Musk introduced an “X Payments” account on his platform. The daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates a bearish trend, with readings above 50 suggesting bullish advantage and below 50 indicating the opposite.
Currently, Dogecoin’s RSI is below 50 and falling, signaling a potential bearish trend. This is supported by DOGE’s price movement and RSI readings on both daily and six-hour time frames. The price movement shows Dogecoin falling below a descending resistance trend line since its peak in December 2023, with the trend line causing a rejection on January 21, 2024.
The resistance trend line, combined with a horizontal area at $0.077, forms a descending triangle typically considered bearish. The six-hour RSI below 50 supports the possibility of a price drop. A breakout equal to the triangle’s height could lead to a 27% decrease in Dogecoin’s price, potentially bringing it down to the nearest support at $0.058.
