Last week, I almost got wrecked by DOGE.
I opened my account and saw DOGE hanging around 0.099. A week ago, I was all bullish, and now I’m just flat out. To put it plainly, DOGE dropped nearly 9 points this week, and my mood went on a rollercoaster ride.
Let’s talk about this week’s price action. The first couple of days were a steady decline, and I watched my account shrink little by little, almost couldn’t resist the urge to cut losses. Later, I chatted with some seasoned traders, and they said that during times like this, increased volume is actually a good sign—trading volume exceeding 5% of market cap often precedes significant moves; it could be the last dip or a straight-up launch. I was skeptical at the time, but it seems like it stabilized a bit.
On the sentiment side, the fear index is at 28, with a weekly average of 27, not much volatility. Everyone is on the sidelines, no one’s daring to make moves. This atmosphere is actually pretty healthy, indicating that DOGE isn’t moving independently of the broader market, unlike before when some big whale would pump it at will.
However, short-term momentum is indeed weak, down 6.8% in 24 hours and 8.8% over the week, with selling pressure still ongoing. I initially predicted a bounce, but all I got was a deeper pullback. Honestly, I was a bit too optimistic this time.
But looking at it from another angle, DOGE has dropped 86% from its peak, and it’s now in the oversold zone. Here’s the question—has its fundamentals changed? Or is it just emotional selling? If it’s just the latter, then this position actually looks pretty tasty.
Next week, keep an eye on the support at 0.09671; if it breaks down, it could accelerate the decline; 0.10866 is a psychological barrier, and a breakout there could turn the tide. Whether the volume can keep increasing is also crucial.
As for my trades, I basically stayed put last week, maybe tested the waters with a small position. I’m leaning conservative; I’d rather miss out than get trapped. In this market, not losing money is more important than making money.
What about you? How did your trades go last week?
A. I bottomed out, waiting for a bounce.
B. I’m on the sidelines, waiting for clearer signals.
C. I’m already trapped, just lying low pretending.
