Dogecoin Market Analysis: Bearish Patterns Emerge
The Dogecoin market presents a bearish trend on the 4-hour chart, prompting concerns among investors. Initially forming a bullish falling wedge pattern from November 12 to 19, the anticipated rally was cut short by a weak breakout.
On November 19, Dogecoin surged briefly, fueling optimism. However, financial analyst Kevin (@Kev_Capital_TA) had predicted the breakout's weakness, a prediction confirmed by the subsequent price action.
The key resistance level for Dogecoin is the macro 0.786 Fibonacci retracement, where it faced a sharp rejection. Kevin suggests that without a significant breakout, bullish enthusiasm is premature. Furthermore, he notes that Bitcoin's position at a critical resistance level suggests Dogecoin's movement will depend on Bitcoin breaching the $100,000 threshold.
Kevin advises traders to curb their excitement, stating that both Bitcoin and Dogecoin are facing major resistances and that significant breaks have yet to occur. He emphasizes the importance of Bitcoin's behavior, highlighting that technical analysis on Bitcoin currently supersedes that on Dogecoin.
Kevin's analysis of Dogecoin's 4-hour chart identifies a "nasty triple top" pattern at the 0.786 Fibonacci level, signaling a bearish trend with potential downward pressure. He cautions that a correction to $0.30, as previously predicted, could challenge bullish sentiment.
In technical analysis, a triple top indicates a shift from an uptrend to a downtrend, occurring when price repeatedly tests the same resistance without breaking through. Dogecoin's failure to exceed $0.41 at the 0.786 Fib suggests waning bullish momentum in the short term.
Kevin asserts that Dogecoin has not yet broken out decisively, "Confined to sideways motion" until it surpasses the 0.786 Fib at $0.41. He outlines a bullish scenario if this level is cleared, targeting $0.80 to $0.85. However, he emphasizes the uphill challenge and dependence on Bitcoin's upward momentum.
Kevin projects a potential deeper correction for Dogecoin, supported by the triple top and Fibonacci rejection. His initial target price range is $0.30 to $0.26, marking a 30-40% pullback from the local peak and representing a healthy correction in a bull market.
In a broader perspective, Kevin emphasizes the significance of the upcoming monthly candle closure. "Dogecoin's looming objective is a monthly candle close above $0.335 within 11 days, marking an all-time peak close," he remarks, indicating his close monitoring of this milestone.
