After a steady increase, Dogecoin price faced resistance near the $0.160 zone. A high was formed at $0.1594 before DOGE started a downside correction like Bitcoin and Ethereum. There was a drop below the $0.1540 support zone.

A low was formed at $0.1488 and DOGE is now consolidating for the next move. Dogecoin is still trading above the $0.150 level and the 100-hourly simple moving average. There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support at $0.1485 on the hourly chart of the DOGE/USD pair.

On the upside, the price is facing resistance near the $0.1515 level. It is near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $0.1594 swing high to the $0.1488 low.

The next major resistance is near the $0.1540 level or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $0.1594 swing high to the $0.1488 low. A close above the $0.1540 resistance might send the price toward the $0.160 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $0.1650 level. The next major stop for the bulls might be $0.1720.

If DOGE’s price fails to gain pace above the $0.1540 level, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $0.150 level and the trend line.

The next major support is near the $0.1445 level. If there is a downside break below the $0.1445 support, the price could decline further. In the stated case, the price might decline toward the $0.1350 level.
