Dogecoin Pushes Higher as Bulls Break 16 Cent Resistance

Dogecoin continued its upward trend over the past 24 hours, gaining 1.67% to close at $0.167 as bulls broke through a key resistance level.

The move comes amid ongoing macroeconomic tensions, including heightened trade disputes and geopolitical risk, which have injected volatility into broader crypto markets.

DOGE’s performance stands out as it climbs steadily off its weekly lows, forming a strong support base and flashing early signs of accumulation.

News Background

• Dogecoin’s breakout followed a surge in volume during the 16:00-17:00 UTC window on June 24, when the asset moved decisively above $0.166.
• The rally was backed by sustained buying interest and solidified earlier support established near $0.162–$0.163, where significant volume was recorded during the 13:00 hour.
• The price action unfolded against the backdrop of renewed market anxiety as global trade disputes and diplomatic tensions continue to weigh on investor sentiment.
• Risk assets have remained under pressure in recent weeks, though DOGE has demonstrated relative strength with consecutive higher lows and expanding participation from traders.
• Technical analysts note that the current price structure suggests further upside is possible if DOGE can maintain momentum above $0.165 and break beyond $0.168 resistance.

Price Action

DOGE traded within a healthy 3.4% range from $0.162 to $0.168.

The most dramatic movement occurred in the final 60 minutes of the session, when price jumped briefly to $0.168 at 07:26 UTC before entering a short-term retracement.

That surge was supported by a 0.28% price gain on heavy volume exceeding 11.7 million units. However, subsequent candles showed profit-taking and the formation of a descending channel, as DOGE dropped back to $0.166 by 08:04 UTC. 

Notable selling spikes were seen at 07:51 and 08:03, where volume exceeded 4.9 million units.
