As of this writing, DOGE/USD is trading below 6 cents. The long-term bearish trend in Dogecoin has brought it to within prices not seen since late March of last year. This fact technically can actually be interpreted as a negative indication, because in January of 2021 DOGE/USD was trading below 5 cents. And in December of 2020 traders may want to remember that DOGE/USD was moving incrementally below one cent.
Speculative zeal for DOGE/USD has disappeared. The broad cryptocurrency market is obviously struggling and Dogecoin is acting like a disobedient dog barking in the house. DOGE/USD is making a lot of noise and it is not the good sort. Traders who have continued to buy DOGE/USD and look for reversals higher have likely been met with poor results. DOGE/USD saw additional selling momentum this weekend like the broad cryptocurrency market.
Amazingly, DOGE/USD still has a market capitalization of approximately 7.7 billion USD. DOGE/USD is ranked as the 10th largest cryptocurrency still within the broad market. DOGE/USD has no utilitarian purpose, except as a speculative wager. Let’s take a moment to consider that a little more than a year ago many of the Dogecoin influencers were making the bold prediction it would hit 1.00 USD. A visit to Reddit now and a search of Dogecoin essentially shows many folks are disgruntled.
Before the weekend DOGE/USD was actually trading near the 8 cents level. People who decided to buy into DOGE/USD on Friday the 10th of June are likely not happy right now. If DOGE/USD breaks below 5 and half cents short term, fears of it falling below 5 cents would not be farfetched. On the 5th of April DOGE/USD was trading slightly below 18 cents.
Traders who want to sell DOGE/USD should be careful, but they might be making a worthwhile speculative bet. The mask Dogecoin has worn has always been self-evident. DOGE/USD has been a speculative place to wager, which it can be argued has served as a barometer of the broad cryptocurrency market. The negative bearish trend is strong and speculators who actually want to be buyers under the present conditions should know that they may be spitting into the wind. Conservative amounts of leverage are advised when betting on DOGE/USD.
