Dogecoin (DOGE) is teetering on a critical edge as price action tightens within a descending triangle pattern, hinting at rising bearish pressure. The meme-inspired cryptocurrency has entered a phase of low volatility and narrowing price movement, a classic sign of market indecision that often precedes a significant breakout or breakdown. With the 200-period moving average applying dynamic resistance from above and horizontal support showing signs of strain, DOGE’s technical landscape suggests a potential collapse could be on the horizon if buyers fail to defend key levels. Price Coils Within Bearish Formation Ahead Of Potential Breakout Market analyst Thomas Anderson, in a recent post on X, pointed out that “DOGE is consolidating within a descending triangle pattern on the M30 timeframe,” signaling a period of indecision. This chart pattern, often seen in bearish continuations, is characterized by a flat support base with lower highs pressing from above. As Dogecoin trades deeper into this structure, the probability of a breakout, either upward or downward, is increasing with each narrowing move. Related Reading: Dogecoin’s Fate Hinges On This Price Level, Analysts Agree Anderson further explained that DOGE is “currently testing the upper resistance around $0.19998,” a key level that has capped recent bullish attempts. This resistance aligns with the descending trendline of the triangle and is strengthened by the 200 MA (red line), acting as dynamic resistance. The presence of the 200-period moving average at this level adds extra weight to the upper line, making any potential breakout attempt more challenging for the bulls in the near term. Until price action breaks decisively in either direction, DOGE remains locked in a tightening range. For now, Anderson’s observations underline the importance of this technical structure, as DOGE nears a critical inflection point. Triangle Compression Builds Tension For Dogecoin The analyst further emphasized that momentum appears to be weakening as Dogecoin’s price action tightens near the apex of the descending triangle. According to the expert’s observations, the 1-hour chart reinforces this broader consolidation phase, showing a clear compression of price within the pattern. This type of setup often leads to an explosive move once the market chooses a direction.

However, failure to breach this resistance level may reinforce the bearish structure, increasing the likelihood of a pullback toward the lower triangle support around $0.19010, a critical area where buyers previously stepped in.

The move is part of a wider systematic shift in priorities for the organization, including supporting Ethereum's ecosystem of applications.
Bitcoin is witnessing a tough battle between the bulls and the bears at $105,000, but several altcoins are showing strength with potential breakout setups.
Ethereum is showing impressive resilience as it continues to hold above critical levels despite ongoing market volatility. While Bitcoin struggles to break past its all-time highs, ETH remains stable, maintaining bullish structure and fueling hopes for a broader altcoin rally. Analysts across the market are eyeing a potential altseason, with Ethereum expected to lead the charge once it clears major supply zones. Related Reading: Ethereum Daily Chart Signals Strength Amid Market Uncertainty – Analyst However, the spotlight is shifting to a less discussed but highly significant chart—ETHBTC. According to top analyst Daan, the ETHBTC pair has been consolidating in a tight range between 0.022 and 0.026 since the last squeeze. This consolidation suggests a period of accumulation and reduced volatility, but it also acts as a crucial signal for altcoin momentum. If ETHBTC breaks above the 0.026 resistance level, Daan suggests it could trigger a temporary but powerful rally in ALT/BTC pairs. Sectors closely tied to Ethereum—such as DeFi protocols, ETH-based memecoins, and Layer 2 ecosystems—could benefit most from such a move. Until then, investors are closely monitoring ETH’s performance relative to BTC, as it remains one of the most reliable indicators of capital rotation within the crypto market. ETHBTC Chart Becomes Key to Altseason Outlook Ethereum is currently trading at a pivotal range, with investors closely watching for a breakout that could lead to new highs and potentially ignite the long-anticipated altseason. Despite global tensions and continued macroeconomic uncertainty—particularly surrounding the aggressive and unstable Bond market—ETH has remained relatively strong. Bulls are optimistic, viewing the current consolidation as a healthy pause before the next leg up. One of the most important signals for altcoin momentum is not found on the USD chart, but in the ETHBTC pair. Daan points out that Ethereum’s price relative to Bitcoin has been consolidating between the 0.022 and 0.026 BTC range since the recent squeeze. This range now acts as a pressure point for the market. A breakout above 0.026 would likely catalyze a surge in altcoin strength, especially among Ethereum-related assets like DeFi protocols, ETH-based memecoins, and Layer 2 solutions. However, Daan warns that if ETHBTC drops below 0.0224, it could signal weakness for alts relative to BTC. It’s important to remember that ALT/BTC pairs can fall even if altcoin USD prices rise, particularly during aggressive BTC rallies. The same applies in reverse. For now, ETH’s position in this range remains one of the most telling signs of where the broader crypto market might head next. Related Reading: Ethereum Reclaims Pivotal Level – Key Resistance Around $2,650 Ethereum Faces Resistance As Bulls Attempt Breakout Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading around $2,640, showing signs of strength after holding its ground above the $2,500 mark. On the daily chart, ETH is forming a clear consolidation pattern just below a key resistance zone defined by the 200-day moving average (currently at $2,676). This level has repeatedly capped price action over the past few weeks, signaling strong supply pressure in this area. Despite the lack of a decisive breakout, Ethereum is maintaining a bullish structure with higher lows and consistent volume support. The 34-day EMA has turned upward and currently sits at $2,418, providing dynamic support and reinforcing the short-term uptrend. If ETH can reclaim the 200-day SMA and push above $2,700, a broader rally could follow, potentially opening the path toward $3,000 and beyond. Related Reading: Solana Reclaims Key Support After Sweeping Lows – Early Signs Of Reversal? On the downside, if price fails to break this resistance and sellers take control, immediate support lies near $2,500, followed by stronger demand around $2,350–$2,400 where the 50- and 100-day SMAs converge. For now, Ethereum remains in a balanced state, showing resilience, but still needs a strong catalyst to overcome the technical ceiling that continues to stall upward momentum.

Bitcoin’s current price action is marked by a consolidation around the $105,500 price level. Although it reached an intraday high of $106,807, it has since returned to $105,500, and its dominance also witnessed a minor fall. Notably, Bitcoin’s dominance metric, the BTC.D, which measures its share of the total crypto market capitalization, has stalled around the 64% level in recent weeks. This stalling behavior drew attention from a certified market analyst, especially in light of many altcoins struggling to gain momentum in an environment dominated by Bitcoin’s inflow. BTC Dominance Hits Resistance, Candlestick Flash Warnings According to certified Level III CMT analyst Tony “The Bull” Severino, the 64% region on the Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) chart could mark a meaningful reversal point. Sharing his insights alongside a technical chart of Bitcoin’s market cap dominance on the monthly timeframe, Severino pointed out that the latest monthly candlestick formed a Doji right at the bottom of a previous Falling Window. Related Reading: Altcoin Season: Bitcoin Dominance Reaches Critical Level Above 64% In Japanese candlestick theory, such “windows” are not just gaps to be filled but serve as critical zones of support or resistance. The fact that BTC.D formed a Doji candle precisely at this window, according to Severino, is a textbook reaction suggesting the dominance rally may be losing strength. This candlestick structure brings the focus onto how the current monthly candlestick plays out. If the current monthly candle becomes an Evening Star candlestick and closes below 62%, the odds of Bitcoin dominance rolling over increase significantly. Altcoin Season Not Quite There Yet As noted by Tony, if Bitcoin’s dominance candlestick this month forms an Evening Star pattern and closes below 62%, it has a high possibility of marking the end of the cryptocurrency’s current dominance. However, the analyst added a key caveat: the BTC.D Relative Strength Index (RSI) closed the previous month above 70, still suggesting strong momentum and keeping the larger trend in flux. Related Reading: Is Altcoin Season Over Or It Never Started? Here’s What Historical Data Says Despite these early signals, Severino warned against jumping the gun. Although the technical evidence points to a possible short-term reversal in dominance, he clarified that it does not necessarily guarantee a full-fledged altcoin season. In his words, “I am still not of the mindset that we will get a typical altcoin season, but I am seeing some of the first signs that BTC.D might reverse here.” For now, Bitcoin continues to hold steady above $105,000, and until BTC.D breaks convincingly below 62%, the cryptocurrency is in dominance. Nonetheless, the altcoin market could soon be looking at its first real window of opportunity in months. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $105,500, down by 0.1% in the past 24 hours. Bitcoin dominance is currently at 63.1%, down by 0.57% in the past 24 hours. Ethereum, on the other hand, increased its market share by 2.13% to 9.6%.
