Dogecoin’s price is entering a new bullish phase after months of decline. Technical analysis of the daily candlestick timeframe chart shows that the popular meme cryptocurrency is flashing a trend reversal, hinting at a significant shift from bearish to bullish momentum.
Analyst Flags Daily Trend Reversal On Dogecoin Chart
A prominent crypto analyst known as Trader Tardigrade has highlighted a confirmed trend reversal for Dogecoin. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) this week, he pointed out that DOGE’s daily chart has flipped from a downtrend to an uptrend. This claim is reinforced by a technical analysis of Dogecoin’s price action.
Dogecoin’s price recently broke above a descending trendline that had defined its downtrend for several weeks. This breakout occurred on April 22, when Dogecoin closed above $0.165 on the daily candlestick timeframe. This breakout was the first step indicating the coin was escaping its bearish trajectory.
Shortly after breaching the downward sloping resistance line, Dogecoin’s price pulled back between April 23 and April 24 to retest the same trendline, but this time from above. Importantly, the former resistance trendline held strong as a new support level during the retest. Following that successful test, Dogecoin resumed its upward climb, marking the continuation of the new uptrend.
This pattern of breakout, retest, continuation is a classic technical confirmation of a trend reversal. The successful retest of this trendline gives more confidence that the bullish shift is real and not a false signal.

Bullish Target: $0.25 By Early May
With the daily trend now pointing upward, the focus is now on how far this new uptrend could carry Dogecoin. According to Trader Tardigrade’s analysis, Dogecoin could continue climbing in the coming days, potentially crossing the quarter-dollar mark very soon. As indicated on the chart he shared by Trader Tardigrade, the next Dogecoin price target is around $0.25 by the first week of May.
If achieved, a rise to $0.25 would be a significant milestone, considering Dogecoin has been stuck in a downtrend for over 10 weeks. As such, a break to $0.25 would mark Dogecoin’s highest price since late February and a robust recovery from its recent lows around the $0.14 to $0.15 range. Such a move would also represent roughly a 51% gain from the breakout level of $0.165.
However, $0.25 is only the target in the short term. In a separate analysis, Trader Tardigrade pointed to Dogecoin’s long-term chart, highlighting a round bottom formation. The accompanying chart shows that in previous cycles, Dogecoin’s price formed a rounded bottom before entering explosive upward trends. This repeated pattern, now visible again on the monthly timeframe, signals that Dogecoin may be on the verge of another significant breakout. The long-term price target in this case is $2.8.
