Dogecoin Plunges

As of writing, the Dogecoin token’s price noted a fall of 2.76% in the past 24 hours. The token currently rests at $ 0.181, with its price dropping below this level quite a few times today.

Analysis by CoinGape media earlier spotlighted an 8% bearish turn for DOGE remained poised, coinciding with the token’s continued plunge witnessed in the market today. Moreover, derivatives data unveiled by Coinglass revealed a 5.45% decrease in the token’s open interest, followed by a 27.71% dip in volume. This further underscored a strong downtrend for the dog-based meme token, mirroring the fall in DOGE price.

However, technical indicators showcased a buying sentiment in the market, with the RSI hovering at 51. This undermined DOGE’s bearish movement today, signaling a neutral sentiment for DOGE and some buying pressure in the market. Should this buying pressure increase, DOGE’s fall could be further cushioned, while the massive whale accumulations further align with this and spark speculations over a bolstered price action ahead.
