An analyst has explained how Dogecoin has been forming a Falling Wedge pattern recently, breaking which may kickstart a new bull rally.
Dogecoin Has Been Moving Inside A Falling Wedge Recently
In a new on X, analyst Ali Martinez has discussed a pattern that has recently been forming in the 1-day price of Dogecoin. The pattern in question is the “Falling Wedge” from technical analysis (TA), which is a type of Wedge.
A Wedge pattern appears when the price of the asset consolidates between two converging trendlines (that is, the lines have different slopes and are angled inwards). Depending on where this consolidation is headed, the pattern is termed as Falling or Rising.
In a Falling Wedge, the upper line of the pattern connects lower highs in the price, while the bottom one connects lower lows. Similarly, a Rising Wedge has the upper line joining together higher highs and the lower one with higher lows. Just like other TA consolidation patterns, the upper line may continue to act as a source of resistance in the near future, while the lower one may provide support.
Also, a break out of either of these trendlines can suggest a continuation of pattern in that direction. Wedges specifically are considered to be formations that lead to a reversal, so a break in the direction opposite to that of the Wedge may be considered to be more likely.
Dogecoin has recently been showing a Wedge-like consolidation towards the downside in recent months, so the coin may be forming a Falling Wedge pattern. Below is the chart shared by Ali that showcases this formation.

As is visible in the graph, the Dogecoin price has recently made an apparent retest of the bottom line of this Falling Wedge pattern and has found support at it. Thus, it’s possible that DOGE may now see a surge towards the upper trendline.
Before the coin retests the upper line, though, there is perhaps another important level it has to surpass first: the 0.236 Fibonacci Retracement level. Fibonacci Retracement levels are based on ratios that are found in the famous Fibonacci series.
These levels correspond to the percentage of drawdown as measured between two fixed levels. In the current case, Ali has taken the top of the Falling Wedge as the start of these levels (that is, the 100% or 1 mark).
The analyst notes that if Dogecoin can manage a sustained close above the $0.10 level (that is, above the 0.236 Fibonacci Retracement), it may be able to start a rally toward the $0.15 level.
From the current price of the memecoin, such a potential run would mean an increase of around 53%. It now remains to be seen how DOGE develops in the coming days and whether it would be able to follow any similar trajectory or not.

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to.
In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions.
Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true.
Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn’t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment..
Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form.
Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new.
As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money.
Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn’t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs.
Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.
