Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Pepe all remain vulnerable to further downside after heavy selling pressure emerged following last week\u2019s market correction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DOGE is down by 5%, making it the worst performer among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dogecoin briefly rallied last week and retested the important weekly resistance zone near $0.119 on Thursday before sellers regained control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rejection triggered a fresh wave of downside pressure, with DOGE falling nearly 6% through Sunday and extending losses further on Monday as the token traded below the $0.106 level.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Technical outlook: DOGE risks a deeper correction below key EMAs<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The DOGE\/USD 4-hour chart is bearish as the leading memecoin has dropped below major support levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If DOGE closes the daily candle below the 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) near $0.106, selling pressure could intensify toward the 50-day EMA around $0.103.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A decisive breakdown below that support area may expose the previous trendline breakout region near $0.090, which now acts as the next major downside target.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Momentum indicators continue to reinforce the bearish outlook for Dogecoin. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the 4-hour chart currently sits near 41, slipping below the neutral 50 threshold and signaling that bearish momentum is beginning to strengthen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator confirmed a bearish crossover on Saturday, a signal that remains active and continues to support downside risk in the near term.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the bearish setup, Dogecoin could still attempt a short-term rebound if buyers successfully defend the 100-day EMA support near $0.106.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-364831\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DOGEUSD_2026-05-18_10-12-47.png\" alt=\"DOGE\/USD 4H Chart\" width=\"1793\" height=\"836\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A sustained hold above that level may allow DOGE to recover toward the key weekly resistance zone around $0.119.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, broader market sentiment, particularly Bitcoin\u2019s direction, is likely to remain the dominant driver for meme coin price action in the near term.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Analysis,Dogecoin News#Meme #coins #remain #pressure #Dogecoin #extends #losses1779099233<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key takeaways Dogecoin extends its correction on Monday as memecoins record huge losses.
