The daily timeframe charts showed a strong downtrend in progress for Dogecoin. The RSI was at 34 and has retested the neutral 50 mark as resistance in the past two weeks. This was a sign of significant southward momentum.
The OBV was also in a downtrend as sellers dominated the markets. Given the downtrend for DOGE in April and the fears around Bitcoin’s trajectory, it was likely that DOGE bulls preferred to straddle the fence.
The $0.0729 and $0.08 levels were important support in March and early April but they were breached over the past couple of weeks. The $0.07 and $0.066 levels are the next supports to watch.
A positive reaction from Dogecoin could be dependent on Bitcoin bulls forcing a comeback.
