Dogecoin (DOGE) Skyrockets 80% in Volume as Price Makes Crucial Rebound

Dogecoin (DOGE) Experiences Trading Surge

Dogecoin, the dog-themed cryptocurrency, has seen a significant increase in trading activity. CoinMarketCap data shows a remarkable 80% surge in 24-hour trading volume, reaching $850 million. This volume increase coincides with a 5.07% price rise over the past 24 hours, pushing DOGE to $0.1617 at the time of writing.

This upward trend mirrors a broader cryptocurrency market recovery on Monday, suggesting renewed investor confidence. Bitcoin (BTC) climbed above $28,000 in Asian trading, with popular altcoins like Dogecoin also experiencing gains, offsetting some weekend losses.

Following a three-day rally, Dogecoin saw some profit-taking over the weekend before rebounding strongly on Monday, jumping from a low of $0.155 to $0.162.

What's the outlook?

The daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) is near the mid-50s, suggesting potential consolidation and selling pressure. For buyers to gain the upper hand, the price needs to break above the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at $0.17. A potential target could be $0.20, a key resistance level; breaking above this would confirm a double bottom pattern.

The community is closely monitoring the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as it reviews several DOGE-related ETF applications, including those from Bitwise, Grayscale, 21Shares, and Osprey Fund. A decision on Grayscale's application is expected on May 21st, following a recent SEC postponement of other crypto ETF filings. Source: U.Today
