Dogecoin extends recovery as meme coins regain momentum

Key takeaways

• DOGE is up by nearly 1% and is now trading above $0.10.
• The rally comes as memecoins recorded gains amid the broader crypto market recovery.

Memecoins surge higher as market rebounds

Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and Pepe (PEPE) are extending their recovery on Thursday following recent corrections.

The positive performance comes as market sentiment helps lift major meme coins. Renewed optimism around a potential peace agreement between the United States and Iran has also contributed to the broader rebound across crypto markets.

Dogecoin is showing a very strong technical structure after rebounding from a key support zone. The coin is now approaching a major moving average level that could determine its next directional move.

Dogecoin price outlook: DOGE rebounds from key support zone

The DOGE/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and efficient despite Dogecoin adding 1% to its value. The leading memecoin faced rejection at the weekly resistance level of $0.119 last week, triggering a decline of more than 11% through Tuesday.

However, it has now bounced back above $0.10 after retesting a key support area around the previous trendline breakout zone, which aligns with the daily support at $0.102,

At the moment, DOGE is approaching the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $0.106.

If the memecoin closes the daily candle above the 200-day EMA, it could strengthen its bullish momentum and open the path toward a retest of the $0.119 weekly resistance.

The momentum indicators suggest that the buyers are stepping in. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is hovering near 43, indicating neutral conditions after the recent pullback. 

Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) remains in negative territory, suggesting that upside momentum is still fragile and could face resistance from overhead moving averages.

However, if the sellers return and DOGE drops below the $0.102 support, the bearish trend could push the price below the psychological level of $0.100.

Currently, DOGE remains in a short-term recovery phase, but traders are closely watching whether it can reclaim key technical levels to confirm a stronger bullish continuation.
