Analysis
Dogecoin could see its first major daily death cross of 2026 as the moving averages hint at a convergence in the coming days. The positioning of the daily MA 50 highlights a potential death cross, as it currently tilts downward, with the daily MA 200 flattened. Dogecoin had its first daily golden cross of 2026 in October, but profit-taking in the crypto market saw the DOGE price fall to a low of $0.077. It seems as if bears are making frantic attempts to invalidate this bullish signal, with a potential death cross on the cards.
Market Context
The timing of the death cross or its appearance remains unknown, as a trend shift might offset bears, invalidating the current setup. At the time of writing, DOGE was trading up 3.19% in the last 24 hours to $0.081 following an earlier selloff as investors weighed hotter-than-expected inflation data and Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh's latest comments on interest rates.
Contrarian View
In a contrarian approach, crypto analyst Ali shared three reasons to be bullish on Dogecoin in a recent X post. First, the TD Sequential, which has marked potential turning points before for Dogecoin, has flashed a buy signal on the DOGE daily chart near $0.081. Second, URPD data shows about 36 billion DOGE were previously traded around $0.081. Third, whales appear to be buying near that support, adding 600 million DOGE since October 12.
