Dogecoin to outperform Shiba Inu with a 60% breakout

  • Dogecoin price develops a trifecta of bullish entry conditions.
  • Short-sellers fail to capitalize on setting off a capitulation move.
  • Downsides risks, while limited, do remain.

Dogecoin price action has certainly been a disappointment for the Dogearmy. Dogecoin lost nearly 34% of its value in November, which is likely to change very soon.

Dogecoin price action traps short-sellers, creating huge short-squeeze opportunity

Dogecoin price has a tremendous buying opportunity setup on its $0.001/3-box Reversal Point and Figure chart. The theoretical long setup is a buy stop order at $0.218, with a stop loss at $0.214 and a profit target at $0.351. The entry, if confirmed, completes three conditions simultaneously:

  1. An entry at $0.218 confirms the breakout above a triple-top that formed at $0.217.
  2. The entry at $0.218 confirms a bullish Point and Figure pattern known as a Bear Trap.
  3. The entry moves Dogecoin price above the current dominant downtrend angle and converts the $0.001/3-box Reversal Point and Figure chart into a bull market.

Despite the bullish positioning for Dogecoin, there is a possibility of a powerful short setup that would invalidate the above theoretical long entry. Dogecoin does have a split-triple bottom pattern on its chart. The hypothetical short entry is a sell stop order at $0.212, a stop loss at $0.217 and a profit target at $0.153. The profit target is derived from the Horizontal Profit Target Method in Point and Figure Analysis.

However, the probability of the profit target on the hypothetical short trade idea is low. Bears have had a myriad of opportunities to generate substantial sell-offs of Dogecoin over the past sixty days but have been unable or unwilling to do so. Additionally, downside risks are probably limited to the prior support lows near $0.185.
