On 14 June, Dogecoin posted a bearish candle on the daily timeframe. A rally to $0.083 followed in the weeks after this event, marking that candle as a bullish order block. The sharp drop on 11 September dipped below this zone, but Dogecoin was yet to see a daily session close below the order block.

Hence, until that occurs, bulls can be hopeful of a recovery. Yet the indicators did not show such a move was around the corner. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remained below neutral 50 over the past month and showed a downtrend was in progress.

The Directional Movement Index (DMI) showed this downtrend was strong as both the Average Directional Index (ADX) (yellow) and the -DI (red) were above the 20 reading. Meanwhile, the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), which saw a jump earlier this month, fell toward 0 to show a lack of significant capital inflow to the Dogecoin market.

However, the 180-day mean coin age has been in a strong uptrend since June. This indicated network-wide accumulation of DOGE- but is it enough to keep the bears at bay?
