Senior Commodity Strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence, Mike McGlone, has spotted something interesting and possibly worrying.

Comparing the movement of Bitcoin (vs gold) with Dogecoin, he found that both are following nearly the same path. But this isn’t just about matching charts. It could be a sign of a Bearish Run.Two Different Assets, One Similar PatternAt first glance, Bitcoin and Dogecoin seem like very different assets. Bitcoin is often viewed as “digital gold,” aiming to provide an alternative store of value, while Dogecoin began as a playful spin-off of a meme.

Yet, if we look at the chart that McGlone shared, we can see that the relative price action of these two assets has been surprisingly similar over the past year. Both rose sharply at the end of 2023 and reached their peaks early in 2024. Since then, both have dropped and bounced around in a similar fashion.

Right now, both the Bitcoin-to-gold ratio and Dogecoin’s price are resting on a long-term upward trendline, offering support to both crypto assets. However, McGlone doesn’t seem optimistic that this support will hold for long. He believes that this isn’t a sign of a new bull market but rather a bounce in a longer-term bear market.

Recession Fears A Drop in Risky Assets FOMOHis main reason for this view is the U.S. stock market, which he feels could be indicating a coming recession. Many people were expecting a recession in 2023, but it didn’t materialize yet.

But McGlone thinks it was only delayed and will still come, and when it does, risky assets like Bitcoin and Dogecoin could drop sharply. So, his message is clear: the recent crypto price bounce might not mean a bullish rally; it could just be a short break before prices fall again.

Dogecoin – Bitcoin Price UpdateDogecoin is up nearly 10% in the past 24 hours and now trades around $0.1827. The popular meme coin is now aiming for the $0.1885 level, but first, it needs to break above the $0.186 resistance.

Looking at the charts, the 4-hour Relative Strength Index (RSI) has climbed above 83, which suggests that Dogecoin is currently in an “overbought” zone. This usually means a short-term price correction could be on the way.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin is also showing strength. It has broken past the $94,000 mark and is up nearly 6% in the last 24 hours.
