Dogecoin Open Interest Hits $1.26B as Bulls Eye $0.093
CoinGape reports that Dogecoin price hovered at $0.0848 as open interest hit $1.26 billion, keeping the $0.093 upside target within reach. The broader crypto market gained 1.32% to $2.65 trillion as regulatory optimism strengthened sentiment. Bitcoin price traded near $78,905, while Ethereum stood around $2,532 and XRP reached $1.44.
Traders are now waiting for tomorrow’s vote on the CLARITY Act and Wednesday’s FOMC decision. A crypto analyst has outlined a $0.093 target for Dogecoin based on its four-hour market structure. The prediction comes after a second bounce off the lower trend line of an uptrend price channel.
DOGE is currently in this rising formation and has been steadily marking support levels. The analyst believes that DOGE is likely to move up to the upper line of the channel around $0.093. That level is the next big resistance in the ongoing formation.
If the DOGE long-term prediction closes in a four-hour timeframe above $0.09, it may lead to a rally to $0.095. The trading volume for Dogecoin derivatives surged by 65.06% to $1.17 billion, reflecting a strong uptick in activity. Open interest fell by 1.63% to $1.26 billion despite the higher trading volume.
