DOGE price action
At the time of writing, Dogecoin was down 2.90% in the last 24 hours to $0.398 amid the current profit-taking in the market, which has seen $493 million wiped out in liquidations across various crypto assets. Dogecoin had touched intraday highs of $0.434 before falling as low as $0.383 during Saturday's trading session.
Dogecoin surged over the 50-day SMA at $0.37 on Jan. 15, and bulls rejected bearish attempts to drag down the price on Jan. 16. This shows that the sentiment has improved.
Amid the current selling in the market, the $0.35 level may be a critical near-term support to keep an eye on. A break below this level may indicate that bears are selling on rallies. Dogecoin might then fall to the support at $0.30.
If the Dogecoin price rises above $0.40, it will signal that the uncertainty has been settled in favor of the bulls. Dogecoin could soar to $0.48, where it is expected to face selling.
