Dogecoin (DOGE) finds itself at a critical technical junction in a turbulent crypto market as traders brace themselves for possible major price movement as open interest surges beyond $4 billion.

Dogecoin's $4B Open Interest Surge: Critical Test at $0.33 as Bulls Target $0.48

Currently priced at $0.32, the top memecoin is displaying conflicting indications that might guide its direction in next weeks.

Dogecoin’s Open Interest Rises

According to recent Coinglass data, trade activity is clearly increasing; the total open interest of Dogecoin has increased by 3.11% within the past 24 hours. With $1.64 billion in open interest, Gate.io leads the race at 41% of the whole market. Although it also boosts the likelihood of further price volatility, this explosion in derivatives trading points to rising speculative interest.

DOGE/USD Technical Analysis and Key Levels

DOGE/USD

 

DOGE/USD is currently navigating a complex Elliott Wave pattern, with price action suggesting the completion of Wave 4 correction. Key technical levels have emerged:

  • Immediate Resistance: $0.34 (0.618 Fibonacci retracement)
  • Critical Support: $0.30 (0.786 Fibonacci retracement)
  • Secondary Support: $0.26 (1.0 Fibonacci retracement)

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows bearish momentum on the daily timeframe, though a developing bullish divergence hints at potential trend reversal. The hourly chart reveals hidden bullish divergence, suggesting accumulating buying pressure.

Market Structure and Volume Analysis

The recent market structure shows an ascending channel that brought prices to $0.43 on January 18, though the subsequent breakdown below ascending support suggests possible continuation of the complex correction pattern. Trading volume patterns indicate concentrated activity at key price levels, particularly around the $0.30-$0.33 range.

Dogecoin Price Predictions

Two key scenarios for the short-term movement of Dogecoin are presented by market experts:

Bullish Scenario

A breach above $0.37 might set off a major comeback toward former highs. Target values for some analysts are $0.42, with possible increase to $0.48 should buying pressure continue. This situation fits past cycle trends seen in past bull runs.

Bearish Scenario

Ignoring the $0.33 support level could see prices retesting the important $0.30 threshold. A breach below this level might set off a long drop toward $0.26 before any significant comeback.

Investors and traders should pay great attention to the $0.34 resistance level since a breach might indicate the beginning of a fresh rising momentum. However, risk management remains crucial given the increased leverage in the market, as indicated by the surge in open interest.
