Dogecoin Eyes Bullish 50% Rally To $0.16, But Will A Crash Come First?

After a long stretch of muted price action, Dogecoin has finally entered a position where it could be gearing up for a surge. With major developments such as an increase in participation from both small and large investors, as well as indicators turning bullish, the DOGE price looks primed for a major recovery. However, there could be a small roadblock for the meme coin when it comes to achieving this uptrend as one analyst has pointed out the possibility of a further crash from here.

A Crash Or A Surge For DOGE?

Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has presented a forecast for the Dogecoin price with mixed signals for the future. The analysis focuses on both the bullish and bearish possibilities for the meme coin as it continues to trade in a trading range. Both of these scenarios are possible, with the Stochastic RSI may win out this time.

According to the analysis, the Stochastic RSI has made a bearish crossover for the Dogecoin price. This bearish crossover suggests that there is a price crash coming for the altcoin. In this case, the DOGE price could be falling below $0.1 again. Not only this, but Dogecoin may lose around 15% of its value if this bearish scenario were to play out. This could see the DOGE price fall as low as $0.087 in the worst case scenario.

On the flip side, the Dogecoin price is also showing some bullish tendencies, as the crypto analyst points out. The price is apparently “flirting with a bullish breakout,” which could be significant if it plays out. In this case, the bullish breakout could see the meme coin’s price rise as high as $0.16 and that would mean a 45% breakout from the current price.

Dogecoin Looking For A Breakout

The crypto analyst has previously presented bullish scenarios for the Dogecoin price but chalked it up to two key signals. The first of which is the RSI actually making a successful break out of the descending trending on the daily chart. Second of these is a break above the $0.11 resistance on the chart.

One of these signals had been triggered, with the RSI breaking the descending trendline. However, that has since changed as the Stochastic RSI has actually turned bearish in the meantime. The DOGE price is still trending below $0.1, suggesting that bears are still well in control of the price.

These developments show more potential for the Dogecoin price to actually crash from here before a recovery. But in the event of a market-wide recovery, DOGE could end up following the uptrend regardless.
