Crypto analyst Erick Crypto has highlighted a Dogecoin price squeeze, which is currently playing out. Based on this, he mentioned two possible scenarios that could play out for the largest meme coin by market cap.
Two Possible Scenarios as Dogecoin Price Squeezes
In an X post, Erick Crypto stated that the Dogecoin price is squeezing hard, with a descending triangle and strong horizontal support around $0.136. He added that DOGE is compressing at the apex, which means that a breakout ot breakdown is imminent. The pundit warned that there is high volatility ahead of the meme coin.

Meanwhile, the crypto analyst stated that the Dogecoin price could see more downside if it loses the $0.13 support. On the other hand, it could record a relief rally if it breaks the trendline. He urged market participants to trade the breakout and not the noise. Erick Crypto’s analysis comes amid the crypto market downturn, which has already sparked a massive crash for DOGE.
Notably, the Dogecoin price is down over 20% in the last month, since around when the Bitcoin price first crashed below the psychological $100,000 level. The meme coin has also failed to gain traction despite the launch of two DOGE ETFs during this period. Bitcoinist reported that these Dogecoin ETFs have so far underperformed and failed to gain interest from institutional investors.
Meanwhile, the Dogecoin price and the broader crypto market are at risk of further declines as the Bank of Japan (BOJ) is likely to raise interest rates this week. This could tighten liquidity in the market and also lead to a further unwinding of the yen carry trade, which is a negative for crypto assets, including DOGE.
DOGE Is At A Crossroad
Crypto analyst CryptoCeek stated that the Dogecoin price is at that “classic meme coin fork-in-the-road.” The analyst explained that if the bears push and hold the price under $0.13, the door opens for a full retest of $0.10, where buyers historically aggressively buy the dip. On the other hand, CryptoCeek stated that reclaiming the 20D EMA near $0.14 would scream a bear trap, with $0.19 on the cards for “one of those classic DOGE squeezes.”

Crypto analyst Master remarked that between $0.8 and $0.10 seems likely for the Dogecoin price. He added that the base case is that the meme coin trades sideways until 2028, when the next bull run may start. However, as CryptoCeek suggested, DOGE may bounce from around $0.10 as the bulls step in to accumulate more coins at that price level.
