Dogecoin Price Can Still Reach $1, But It May Not Be Soon, Analyst Explains Why
Crypto analyst XForce has assured that the Dogecoin price can still reach the psychological $1 level. However, he suggested it may not happen soon, as he alluded to technicals that indicate a single pathway for the meme coin to reach this level. Dogecoin Price Can Reach $1 In The Coming Years In an X post, XForce stated that the Dogecoin price still has the potential to record a 10x move in the coming years, potentially reaching $1 from its current level. He further noted that the idea is narrowed to a single primary bullish pathway, in which Wave 4 for DOGE is a potential triangle. Related Reading: Can Dogecoin Lead Meme Coins Back To Glory? The Index That Paints A Gloomy Story His accompanying chart showed that the Dogecoin price could rally to as high as $1.3 on Wave 5, a move which could play out by 2028 based on the technical setup. This notably coincides with a period that analysts such as Benjamin Cowen have predicted could be the peak of the next bull run. Meanwhile, the chart also showed that a drop below $0.05 could invalidate this setup for DOGE. For now, XForce noted that the Dogecoin price continues to hold above the major low and could be the latest remaining meme coin to go on a major run. DOGE is notably back above the psychological $0.10 level, following the recent crypto market rally, led by Bitcoin. However, activity in the derivatives market suggests that traders are still bearish on the meme coin. CoinGlass data shows that the long/short ratio is below 1, indicating that most traders are bearish. Derivatives trading volume has dropped by over 13%, and open interest is down by over 12%. However, the options trading volume is up by over 32%, and options open interest is up by 72%. A Rally To $5 Could Be On The Cards Crypto analyst Bitcoinsensus has suggested that a Dogecoin price rally to $5 could be on the cards. In an X post, the analyst stated that DOGE may have room to push to the $5 price level if this cycle plays out like previous ones. Bitcoinsensus noted that in the first cycle, DOGE recorded a 95x surge while it saw a 310x rally in the second cycle. This third cycle is now playing out, which could lead to another parabolic surge.

The analyst’s accompanying chart showed that the meme coin could record this parabolic rally between now and 2027. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at around $0.10, down over 12% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
