Dogecoin price could surge by 20% as traders react to Twitter's latest move

  • Dogecoin price is trading with a bullish bias courtesy of Twitter's latest announcement.
  • DOGE could rise 20% to regain December highs around $0.104.
  • A daily candlestick close below the 200-day EMA could invalidate the bullish thesis.

Dogecoin price (DOGE) is trading with a bullish bias, sitting atop key supplier congestion zones as bulls ride the hype of Twitter's latest announcement. The giant meme coin is recovering from the aftermath of a recent move to restore Twitter's home button from a Shiba Inu dog to the traditional bird logo. This, coupled with the Bitcoin dominance effect, could help sustain the uptrend for DOGE.

Dogecoin price soars on the Twitter announcement

Dogecoin price is on course to rake in more gains for investors thanks to the latest announcement by Twitter. In a recent development, the giant social media platform has signed a partnership with the trading platform eToro to enable crypto and stock trading in the app.

Twitter CEO Elon Musk appears to be doubling down on his commitment to transform Twitter into a "super app" where users can access a variety of services, including travel, banking, and instant messaging.

The move is an enabler for crypto adoption and a boost for Dogecoin price. It will see Twitter users enjoy access to stocks, cryptocurrencies, and other financial assets. Notably, Twitter integrated pricing data for its "Cashtags" feature in December 2022 alongside a Dogecoin Cashtag. The move came much to the delight of the DOGE community.

With the latest development, a new feature on the Twitter app will allow users to watch market charts on various financial instruments. They can also buy and sell stocks and other assets via eToro. Courtesy of Twitter's Cashtags feature, you can observe real-time trading data from TradingView.

Thanks to the eToro partnership, Twitter Cashtags will henceforth capture a more expansive range of securities and asset classes.

Dogecoin price coils up for a 20% breakout

Dogecoin price is up 6% in the last 24 hours, with all signs pointing to a continued rally. The meme coin is sitting on strong downward support due to the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $0.082 and the base confluence between the 100- and 50-day EMAs at $0.080.

Notice a pending bullish cross on the one-day chart below, which will be authenticated once the 50-day EMA crosses above the 100-day EMA. A bullish cross happens when a faster-moving average crosses above a slower-moving average, in this case, the 50- and 100-day EMAs, respectively.

The bullish thesis for DOGE is also supported by the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which was about to send a 'call to buy' once it crossed above the Stochastic RSI (yellow). If traders heed these bullish calls, Dogecoin price could rise higher, shattering the immediate barricade at $0.089 before a neck up to the $0.104 resistance level. Such a move would denote a 20% climb from the current level.

Conversely, if DOGE holders start booking profits early, Dogecoin price could drop, first losing the support provided by the three EMAs, denying the bullish scenario.

In the dire case, the Dogecoin price could fall back to the March 10 lows around the $0.068 support level before a possible bounce.
