The cryptocurrency market is cooling off slightly after a month of strong gains. Bitcoin (BTC) hit a fresh all-time high of $111,970 before retracing to $107,000, while Ethereum (ETH) touched $2,700 and is now hovering around $2,480.
With this mini pullback, the top memecoin Dogecoin (DOGE) is also trading in the red today after a 20% monthly rally. However, a potential emerging technical structure could be the key to decoding its next move—and it’s flashing a signal that traders have seen before.

MA Compression Signals Possible Reversal
On the daily chart, Dogecoin (DOGE) is showing signs of a pattern that has historically preceded explosive rallies. The 50-day and 100-day moving averages (MAs) are tightening into a compression zone—marked on the chart with a green circle—suggesting a possible trend reversal on the horizon.
This exact MA compression setup has appeared before. In February 2024, the same structure led to a massive 169% rally. Then again in late 2024, a similar compression zone triggered a 328% surge. In both cases, the price stabilized just above key support, the MAs squeezed together, and shortly afterward, $DOGE broke out in dramatic fashion.

Currently, DOGE is trading near $0.22, while the 50 MA sits at $0.187 and the 100 MA at $0.192—levels not seen this close together since the previous rally setups. The tightening range is not just coincidence; it suggests a build-up of pressure as traders wait for a clear breakout signal.
While a confirmed Golden Cross (where the 50 MA crosses above the 100 MA) has not yet occurred, the conditions are being laid. A breakout from this zone could ignite a fresh wave of bullish momentum, potentially pushing DOGE back toward the $0.30–$0.35 range in the coming weeks.
Final Thoughts
DOGE may be approaching a key inflection point. Moving average compression, a repeat of familiar bullish setups, and price stability above $0.21 are signs worth watching. Traders should keep an eye on volume and whether a Golden Cross materializes—these could be the first confirmation of a trend shift.
If history repeats, Dogecoin might just be gearing up for another powerful move.
