Head And Shoulders Alert: Dogecoin Could See A Price Crash Soon

Source Newsbtc

Crypto analysts are sounding the alarm on Dogecoin as a classic chart pattern, known for predicting bearish trends, has emerged. Technical analyst Josh Olszewicz, @CarpeNoctom, flagged a potential Head and Shoulders (H&S) formation on the DOGE/USD 12-hour chart on X, hinting at a possible significant price drop if the pattern validates.

The H&S pattern is a technical indicator traditionally viewed as a bearish signal within the trading community. The pattern is composed of three peaks, with the central peak (the head) being the highest and the two outside peaks (the shoulders) being lower and approximately equal in height. The line connecting the lowest points of the two troughs (the neckline) can be horizontal or sloped and represents a critical support level.

Dogecoin Must Hold $0.14

In the case of Dogecoin’s 12-hour chart, the price has completed the left shoulder and the head, with the right shoulder currently forming. The neckline of this H&S pattern is identified at approximately $0.14, as annotated by Olszewicz. This level is crucial; a decisive break below could confirm the bearish forecast suggested by the H&S formation.

Another technical detail present on the chart is the Fibonacci retracement levels, which are horizontal lines indicating where support and resistance are likely to occur. They are based on Fibonacci numbers, a sequence famous in mathematics and nature for its proportionality.

Here, the 0.5 Fibonacci level aligns with the left shoulder around $0.18, while the 0 level coincides with the peak at approximately $0.23. These levels are key to determining the potential support and resistance areas in the market.

Olszewicz has also highlighted a projected target area based on the H&S pattern’s typical behavior. This bearish target is identified using the height of the pattern from the head’s peak to the neckline, projected downward from the point of the neckline break. The target box, marked in green, shows a potential decline to $0.10 to $0.09, coinciding with the 1.618 and 2.0 Fibonacci extension levels. A fall to this level could lead to a price crash of 40%.

The importance of the H&S pattern lies in its reliability as a trend reversal signal. It validates when the price breaks below the neckline following the formation of the right shoulder. For traders and investors alike, this pattern serves as a cautionary tale to brace for potential downside risks.

As of the latest chart by Olszewicz, the neckline has not been breached, and the pattern has yet to be confirmed. It is critical for observers to watch the $0.14 level closely, as a break below it would likely activate a sell-off, fulfilling the H&S prophecy. However, until such a break occurs, the pattern remains a watchful indicator rather than a confirmed trend reversal.

In summary, Dogecoin’s price chart is showing signs that could concern bullish investors. If history is any guide, the emerging H&S pattern, closely watched by analysts like Olszewicz, suggests a possible downward move in Dogecoin’s value in the near future. However, only a decisive break below the neckline will validate this pattern, turning a watchful eye into a bearish outlook.

At press time, DOGE traded at $0.1509.

Bitcoin Slides 5% as Sellers Lean In — Can BTC Reclaim $88,000?Bitcoin has dropped back below $88,000 after rolling over from $90,500, with price still trading under the 100-hour Simple Moving Average. The sell-off found a floor at $85,151, and BTC is now consolidating near that base, but rebounds are facing pressure from a bearish trend line around $89,000. Bulls need to retake $88,000–$89,000 to ease downside risk; failure to do so keeps $85,500–$85,000 and then $83,500 in play, with $80,000 as the deeper “line in the sand.” Bitcoin (BTC) is back in damage-control mode after a sharp pullback wiped out recent gains. The price failed to reclaim the $90,000–$90,500 band, rolled over, and slid through $88,500 before briefly dipping under $87,000. Buyers did show up around $85,000, but the rebound so far looks more like stabilization than a clear trend reversal. Bitcoin dips hard, finds a bid near $85,000(h3) BTC’s latest move lower began when it couldn’t build follow-through above $90,000 and $90,500. Once that upside stalled, sellers took control and pushed price down through $88,500. The slide accelerated enough to spike below $87,000, but the market didn’t free-fall. Bulls defended the $85,000 zone, printing a low at $85,151. Since then, Bitcoin has been consolidating below the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of the drop from the $93,560 swing high to the $85,151 low — a clue that the bounce is still shallow and that sellers haven’t fully backed off yet. Structurally, BTC is still on the back foot: It’s trading below $88,000, and It remains below the 100-hour Simple Moving Average, keeping short-term trend pressure pointed downward. Resistance is layered, and $89,000 is the problem area(h3) If bulls try to turn this into a recovery, they’ll have to climb through multiple ceilings in quick succession. First, BTC faces resistance around $87,150, followed by a more meaningful barrier near $87,500. From there, the market’s attention snaps back to $88,000 — the level BTC just lost and now needs to reclaim. A close back above $88,000 would improve the tone, but it doesn’t solve the bigger issue: there’s a bearish trend line on the hourly BTC/USD chart (Kraken feed) with resistance near $89,000, which also lines up with the next technical hurdle. If BTC can push through $89,000 and hold, the rebound could extend toward $90,000, with follow-through targets at $91,000 and $91,500. But until price clears that $88,000–$89,000 zone, rallies are at risk of being sold rather than chased. If BTC fails to reclaim resistance, the downside path is clear(h3) The near-term bear case is simple: if Bitcoin can’t climb back above the $87,000 area and keep traction, sellers may attempt another leg lower. Support levels line up like this: Immediate support: $85,500 First major support: $85,000 Next support: $83,500 Then $82,500 in the near term Below that, the major “don’t break this” level is still $80,000. If BTC slips under $80,000, the risk of acceleration to the downside increases significantly — not because it’s magic, but because it’s the kind of psychological and structural level that tends to trigger forced de-risking. Indicators: momentum still leans bearish(h3) The intraday indicators aren’t offering much comfort yet: Hourly MACD is losing pace in the bearish zone. Hourly RSI remains below 50, suggesting sellers still have the upper hand on short timeframes. So while the $85,000 defense held for now, the market hasn’t flipped bullish — it’s just stopped bleeding.
