The token initially rose by about 4%, but the move faded within hours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">By the end of the session, DOGE had erased its gains and continued to slide in the days that followed. Currently, Dogecoin is trading around $0.08\u2013$0.09, marking a weekly drop of more than 20% and pushing it below several key support levels.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-880113 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DOGEUSD_2026-02-06_12-55-05.png?w=860&#038;resize=860%2C603\" alt=\"Dogecoin DOGE DOGEUSD DOGEUSD_2026-02-06_12-55-05\" width=\"860\" height=\"603\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Dogecoin (DOGE) Selling Pressure Builds Across the Market<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dogecoin\u2019s weakness has unfolded alongside a broader crypto sell-off. Bitcoin\u2019s breakdown, currently trading below $65,000 and major support levels, triggered widespread liquidations, pulling down high-risk assets such as meme coins.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Total crypto market capitalization fell sharply, while the Fear and Greed Index dropped into \u201cextreme fear\u201d territory, signaling heightened caution among traders.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">This environment has limited the impact of <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/teslaownersSV\/status\/2018563310309060852?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2018563310309060852%7Ctwgr%5Ee7ed3b4f8a53dcf7db9ad8410ed07cfb96ad9c20%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fcoinpaper.com%2F14247%2Fdogecoin-price-jumps-after-elon-musk-confirms-moon-mission-timeline\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Musk-related headlines<\/a>. While his past remarks often sparked sustained rallies, recent reactions have been brief. Other meme tokens, including Shiba Inu, have followed a similar path, suggesting the move is less about DOGE-specific news and more about overall market stress.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Technical Levels Under Pressure<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">From a technical perspective, <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/dogecoin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Dogecoin<\/a> has broken below the $0.10 and $0.0950 support levels and briefly touched lows near $0.08. The price remains below key moving averages, backing the bearish trend.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Analysts note resistance forming around $0.09\u2013$0.0950, with additional barriers near $0.10 that would need to be reclaimed for any meaningful recovery.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Momentum indicators continue to point lower, though some oscillators are approaching oversold levels. Trading volume has increased during the decline, indicating active participation rather than thin liquidity moves.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Outlook Hinges on Macro Conditions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">For now, Dogecoin\u2019s direction appears tied to broader market conditions rather than celebrity-driven catalysts. While some longer-term indicators suggest a potential basing phase could develop, short-term risks remain skewed to the downside.<\/p>\n<p>Related Reading: Bitcoin Edges Past Gold In Appeal, JPMorgan Says<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Unless selling pressure across crypto eases, DOGE may continue to test lower support zones, with market sentiment likely to remain cautious in the near term.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cover image from ChatGPT, DOGEUSD chart on Tradingview<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest slide in Dogecoin (DOGE) is a reminder of how quickly sentiment can shift in a fragile crypto market.
