Analysts issue a sell signal for Dogecoin, targeting $0.179, $0.163, and $0.144, citing technical indicators amid ongoing price volatility.
Dogecoin (DOGE) has experienced significant price fluctuations, with the cryptocurrency declining sharply in recent days. Over the past 24 hours, DOGE has dropped by over 11%, extending its losses to nearly 44% in the last 30 days.
The price now hovers around $0.18, marking a substantial pullback from its highs earlier this year. Despite this downturn, DOGE remains up 90% over the past year, indicating long-term investors are still in profit. However, the recent decline has put key support levels under pressure, raising concerns over the near-term outlook.

In contrast, another analyst, Exocet03, has identified a potential bullish setup based on a falling wedge pattern. According to the analysis, the market is expected to reject the upper wedge resistance before forming an interim low around $0.175.
The analyst anticipates a breakout if market conditions align. Additionally, the $0.235 level has been highlighted as a key breakout point, while a potential decline to $0.175 could offer an entry opportunity for long positions.
Buying Opportunity and Profit-Taking Targets
ProCrypto23 has also taken a contrasting stance, indicating that DOGE’s current price represents an attractive buying opportunity. The analyst states that DOGE is unlikely to go much lower and has entered a long position at $0.18590, with a stop-loss at $0.18200.
The target profit levels extend significantly higher, ranging from $0.78 to $2.00. Amid these predictions, key data suggest falling interest, which could lead to further declines.
Dogecoin Open Interest Declines
Notably, Dogecoin’s open interest in futures markets has plummeted by over 67% in the past three months. According to Glassnode data, Dogecoin’s open interest dropped from $4.07 billion on December 8 to $1.33 billion.
Open interest measures the total number of outstanding contracts in derivatives markets and is often used to gauge market sentiment. A sharp decline in open interest typically signals reduced optimism among traders.
