Dogecoin Needs To Break $0.25 To Resume Bull Run
Crypto Briefing | Oct 17, 2021 12:53AM ET
Dogecoin struggled to break out as the $0.25 resistance level proved to be quite significant. At time of writing, Dogecoin appeared to have lost the popularity it enjoyed at the beginning of the year as its price continued to consolidate without a clear outlook. Still, the technicals suggest a clear resistance level DOGE must overcome to resume its uptrend. Dogecoin remained stagnant as Bitcoin stole the crypto spotlight due to mounting speculation about an ETF in the U.S.
The meme-coin continued consolidating without proving a clear signal of where its price was going next. The lackluster price action led to the formation of a symmetrical triangle on DOGE’s daily chart. The series of lower highs Dogecoin has recorded since Apr. 23 formed the pattern’s hypotenuse, while the $0.16 support level created the x-axis.
As the tenth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap edged closer to the symmetrical triangle’s apex, it suggested that a significant price movement could be underway.
A spike in buying pressure around the current price levels that pushes Dogecoin above the triangle’s hypotenuse at $0.25 could be considered a breakout. If this were to happen, DOGE could surge by more than 78% towards $0.45.
Such a bullish target is determined by measuring the height of the triangle’s y-axis and adding it to the breakout point.
Wise traders might wait for a decisive daily candlestick close above $0.25 before entering any bullish positions. Failing to move past this hurdle may lead to a rejection that sends Dogecoin back to the $0.17 support floor, as seen over the past few months.

A retest of the $0.17 support may represent an ideal buying zone for market participants. Still, any signs of weakness at this level can result in a steep correction as the next critical support area sits around $0.07.
