Dogecoin Breaks Below Key $0.129 Support as Heavy Volume Flashes Warning
Dogecoin (DOGE) has dropped below the key $0.129 support level on a surge in trading volume, signaling potential further downside. Here's what traders need to watch now.
Dogecoin (DOGE) slipped below its critical support level of $0.129, a move confirmed by a significant spike in trading volume that suggests sellers are taking control. The breakdown ends a recent consolidation period and leaves the token in a technically vulnerable position.
Over the past 24 hours, DOGE edged down 0.3% from $0.1309 to $0.1305, according to market data on December 22. While the percentage drop was modest, intraday volatility hit roughly 4%, reflecting heightened sensitivity around key price levels. An early session rally failed near $0.134, establishing it as firm short-term resistance before sellers pushed the price decisively lower.
The most telling move occurred around 02:00 UTC, when a concentrated burst of selling broke the floor that had previously attracted buyers. "The breakdown occurred alongside a sharp increase in volume, suggesting active participation rather than low-liquidity drift," according to a technical analysis of the session.
What Traders Are Watching
With the old support now flipped to resistance, any attempt to rebound will likely face selling pressure around the $0.129–$0.130 area. A sustained failure to reclaim this level could open the door to further weakness.
For now, momentum indicators are leaning lower, and the price remains below its immediate moving averages. To neutralize the bearish setup, buyers would need to push the price back above the former range floor on rising volume. Until then, sellers appear to have the upper hand on any rebounds.
