Considering DOGE’s current price, it certainly has a long way to go and could require some patience from its investors. Another analyst, Justin Bennett stated,

“DOGE is one of those where the moment you think it’s dead and get out, it takes off without you.”

The following chart explains his optimism.

He further stated:

“Staying patient with the second half of my position from the 27s. Patience is key if you aren’t already in.  Either dips 0.295 or reclaim 0.31. That’s how I’d approach it if I weren’t already in.”

In addition to this, analyst Scott Melker opined that DOGE’s price will retrace to the $0.35 mark shortly.
