Dogecoin (DOGE) price continues to rise, but resistance looms

Dogecoin is showing signs of life again, with a price of $0.2016 and a 1.92% increase over the past 24 hours. Trading volume has reached $3.38 billion, clearly indicating that interest in the coin remains strong.

Still, not everyone is convinced: analysts are divided over the strength of the current move.

Key levels approaching

According to analyst Ali Martinez, the area around $0.19 is critical. That price line acts as strong support. As long as Dogecoin stays above that level, he believes the path toward $0.25 remains open. In the chart he shared, you can clearly see this level aligns with an ascending trendline that has been active since late 2023.
This long-term trend remains intact as long as $0.19 holds.

Daan Crypto is slightly more cautious. He points out that Dogecoin is currently battling the 200-day exponential moving average (EMA), around $0.202. That zone appears to be acting as resistance for now. A real breakout would only be convincing if the price manages to break above $0.26. Until then, he considers it a difficult entry point.

$DOGE - Pretty similar to SOL. In the middle of the range and battling the Daily 200EMA.

Think this structure isn't the strongest but a break above $0.26 should be a good one to watch in case it gets there at some point.

Technical structure remains fragile

The current structure of Dogecoin looks technically weak, according to Daan Crypto. The chart shows a choppy pattern without clear direction. Although there’s upward momentum, obstacles remain at $0.21, $0.23 and especially $0.26. These zones previously acted as resistance and may do so again.

Still, the high trading volume and support at the $0.19 level create a slightly optimistic tone among traders. If the price closes above $0.21, more buyers may be drawn in.

For now, it remains to be seen whether Dogecoin can hold its support and push higher. But one thing is clear: the market is keeping a close eye on this dog.
