Dogecoin Price Forecast: DOGE bulls in control of momentum

Dogecoin price rebounded after retesting its previously broken descending trendline (drawn by connecting multiple highs since May 23) around $0.15 on Wednesday and rallied 9.8% until Sunday. At the time of writing on Monday, it trades at around $0.17.

If DOGE continues its upward trend and closes above the weekly resistance at $0.18 on a daily basis, it could extend the rally to retest its June 11 high of $0.20.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart stands at 51, having moved above its neutral level of 50, indicating indecision among investors. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator also displayed a bullish crossover last week. It also shows a rising green histogram bar above its neutral level, indicating bullish momentum and an upward trend.

Shiba Inu Price Forecast: SHIB could rally if it closes above the 50-day EMA 

Shiba Inu price broke above the descending trendline (drawn by connecting multiple highs since mid-May) on June 28. Still, it consolidated between the daily level at $0.0000111 and below the 50-day EMA at $0.0000123 last week. It edges slightly lower on Monday, hovering around $0.0000118 at the time of writing.

If SHIB rallies and closes above its 50-day EMA at $0.0000123 on a daily basis, it could extend the rally toward its June 11 high of $0.0000136.

The RSI on the daily chart stands at 49, hovering around its neutral level of 50, which indicates indecisiveness among traders. For the bullish momentum to be sustained, the RSI must move above its neutral level of 50. The MACD indicator displayed a bullish crossover last week.
