Dogecoin (DOGE) has recently experienced a staggering rally. Over the span of eight days, DOGE surged nearly 200%, reaching a local peak at $0.4385 on Tuesday. This explosive growth propelled the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) to almost 93, signaling strongly overbought conditions.

Since then, the Dogecoin price corrected by 19%, trading at $0.37 as of press time. However, according to crypto analyst Kevin (@Kev_Capital_TA), who has gained significant attention on X for his Dogecoin price analyses, the correction phase may not be over yet. In a series of updates, Kevin addresses how low Dogecoin can go before resuming its upward trajectory.

How Low Can Dogecoin Go?

“My first price target and a level we will want to hold for Dogecoin is the $0.30-0.26 range, which is the golden pocket retrace levels,” Kevin stated. “That’s a 30-40% correction from the local top, which in a bull market is a perfect size correction.”

Kevin further explained the significance of RSI levels in predicting market movements. “A healthy 1-3 week correction/consolidation to cool off indicators would be the most beneficial thing that can happen to Dogecoin. Happened multiple times on the way up in 2020-2021,” he noted. “My opinion still remains this occurs soon based off the technical data I am looking at.”

Drawing parallels to the previous bull market, he added: “Back in the 2020-2021 bull market for Dogecoin, it hit a 90+ on daily RSI three times, each time marking a local top or consolidation period before the next leg up. We just hit 90+ on the daily RSI for the first time, signaling that we potentially have 1-2 more legs up remaining in this bull market before we find the macro top. PS: The second and third legs were both bigger than the first leg.”

On the lower time frames, the Dogecoin price action formed a symmetrical triangle, a chart pattern often associated with periods of consolidation that precede significant price movements. Kevin observed: “Tracking this weird Dogecoin symmetrical triangle. Honestly a 50/50 which way this breaks. I still favor the correction due to daily RSI being 90+.”

The symmetrical triangle can serve as either a continuation or a reversal pattern, depending on market conditions. For the Dogecoin price, the breakdown from the triangle aligns with Kevin’s expectation of a correction due to overbought RSI levels.

To estimate the potential magnitude of the price drop following the breakdown from the symmetrical triangle, traders measure the height of the triangle’s base—the widest part of the formation. This measurement is then projected downward from the point of breakdown, providing a target for the price movement.

Applying this method to Dogecoin suggests a correction towards the $0.28 price level, which aligns closely with Kevin’s analysis targeting the $0.30-$0.26 range. “Looks like the correction I have been calling for the last couple of days is beginning on Dogecoin,” Kevin confirmed after observing the market movement. “Can’t go straight up, folks. Dips are healthy and reset the indicators so we can go higher. Hopefully nobody gets mad at me anymore for delivering the truth.”

As of press time, Dogecoin is trading at approximately $0.37, having retraced about 19% from its local top. The price appears to have found temporary support at $0.35, but with the daily RSI only resetting to 80—still in overbought territory—a continuation of the correction cannot be ruled out.

“A healthy 1-3 week correction/consolidation to cool off indicators would be the most beneficial thing that can happen to Dogecoin,” Kevin reiterated. “Happened multiple times on the way up in 2020-2021. My opinion still remains this occurs soon based off the technical data I am looking at.”

Dogecoin co-founder Billy Markus has revealed how to make DOGE deflationary. The foremost meme coin’s total supply is unlimited, as it has a fixed yearly issuance of 5 billion coins, which could ultimately impact its value over time.

Dogecoin Founder Reveals How To Make DOGE Deflationary

In an X post, Billy Markus shared the GitHub code to remove Dogecoin’s inflation. He mentioned that anyone who was looking to make DOGE deflationary could simply make a pull request and convince the community and miners to use the new version.

The top meme coin currently has a total supply of 146.78 billion DOGE. That figure is bound to grow over time since 5 billion coins come into circulation yearly through mining rewards. However, this inflation rate decreases yearly compared to the coin’s total supply.

Billy Markus’ revelation came following criticisms about Dogecoin’s ‘infinite’ supply. Interestingly, he likened DOGE to Bitcoin while defending the former’s inflationary status. Markus claimed that DOGE and BTC are the “same with very minor parameter changes.”

He made this statement because Bitcoin’s total supply can increase from 21 million if the community and miners agree. Meanwhile, Markus also noted that based on its 21 million supply, BTC will continue to witness a supply shock until 2140.

Meanwhile, in another X post, The DOGE co-founder again highlighted the community’s power in determining the meme coin’s inflationary status. He remarked that the community is literally in control and has always been since Dogecoin is an open-source proof-of-work (PoW) cryptocurrency, and miners agreed to the code.

Elon Musk Says Inflationary Status Is A Feature Not A Bug

Following Billy Markus’ revelation on how to make DOGE deflationary, Elon Musk responded that he thinks Dogecoin’s flat inflation is a feature, not a bug. Flat inflation refers to how the meme coin’s inflation percentage decreases over time.

Markus agreed that Dogecoin’s inflationary status is ideal since it is intended to be used as a currency. He added that this meme coin’s inflation status is steady and predictable, with a percentage that goes down over time. He suggested that this makes DOGE better than the Dollar as a currency since its inflation rate is much lower.

Musk’s statement comes after Donald Trump appointed him to lead the Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E). It is worth mentioning that the world’s richest man coined the department’s name. The similarity between D.O.G.E and DOGE is believed to be deliberate since Musk is known for indirectly shilling the foremost meme coin.
