The squeeze you can trade
Dogecoin is moving. It jumped 13% this week to
1.63 billion worth of DOGE to exchanges in September, about 5.81 billion tokens. That usually means profit taking. Long-term holders also shifted coins, shown by rising coin days destroyed. That can add downside risk. Yet price held bid. Momentum is real.The blueprint for a break
The technicals favor buyers. On the Ichimoku Cloud, all four key signals align for a “perfect +4” bullish score. Support sits near
0.287. A clean break above that level can target 0.300 and higher. Analyst Trader Tardigrade sees steady momentum from consolidation. He notes higher lows on each test of resistance. “Eventually, DOGE will break this resistance and reach new all-time highs,” he said. Analyst Javon Marks sets a breakout target at 0.6533. That implies 111% upside from current prices. CoinCodex forecasts $0.32 by mid-October, which supports the bullish tone.Why the window is open now
The policy backdrop turned friendlier. The U.S. SEC approved listing standards for spot Dogecoin ETFs. The launch of DOJE, backed by REX Shares and Osprey Funds, is a landmark for meme coin access in regulated markets. Corporate adoption adds fuel. CleanCore Solutions is adding DOGE to its treasury strategy. Payment integrations keep growing. This keeps DOGE on institutional screens and in their models.
Short-term risk still exists. If DOGE fails to hold above 0.273, analysts warn of a move toward 0.241. Momentum looks overbought, so price could pause before the next push. The bigger picture remains firm. ETF momentum, corporate use, and a bullish chart point to a rally into late 2025. The breakout path that doubles price is on the table right now.
