Dogecoin Pulls Back 16% From $0.10 Resistance Level
bitcoinethereumnews.com reports that Dogecoin rallied from $0.07 lows to challenge the $0.10 psychological resistance before retreating 16.5% due to Bitcoin momentum stalling near $82k. Analyst Ali Martinez noted that the price action has vindicated his August 15 warning that the memecoin was primed for a parabolic move. The Tom DeMark Sequential indicator signaled a potential trend reversal on the monthly timeframe, supporting this bullish outlook. On-chain data shows whales accumulated 430 million DOGE over the past week, reinforcing the accumulation narrative.
The UTXO Realized Price Distribution identifies a key support cluster at $0.081, which Martinez argues is critical for targeting $0.177. This zone represents an air pocket with relatively little acquired supply, allowing for potential upward movement if support holds. A drop below $0.081 could expose holders to renewed pressure within the broader $0.069-$0.081 support region.
A daily close above $0.092 marked a market structure shift on high volume, suggesting the rally was substantive. Fibonacci retracement levels highlight the $0.08-$0.074 area as a golden pocket for potential buying opportunities. A dip into this zone could target an impulse move toward $0.12 or the yearly highs of $0.155.

Dogecoin is currently trading at $0.08524 on Binance spot markets. Short-term sentiment shows strong buying pressure with a 68.7% buy ratio in the last hour, contrasting sharply with the 48.2% ratio over the past four hours. This divergence suggests that immediate buying momentum is building after a period of more balanced activity. The one-hour volume delta is positive at $283,631, indicating net inflows, whereas the four-hour delta is negative at -$140,756. Over the last 24 hours, the buy ratio sits at 46.5% with a negative volume delta of -$4,333,103, showing that longer-term selling pressure has outweighed buying. However, the cumulative volume delta closed at +$254,213, and net buying occurred in 15 of the last 24 hours, indicating that buyers have regained control by the end of the day.
The latest daily buy ratio of 37.6% sits at the 0th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 48.9% - among the weakest buying days it has had.
