Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) showed up late for the crypto party, just like Benzinga called on Friday but had a howling good time when she got there. On Monday, the Shina Inu-themed alt coin ran over 15% north before bumping into resistance levels near the 27 cent mark, where it rejected the level and turned vicious.
The cryptocurrency market has been on fire with lately Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) has gained nearly 50% of its value since September 30th and ether (CRYPTO: ETH) traded over 30% higher in the same period. The momentum in the crypto market was further boosted by an announcement that the first Bitcoin futures ETF would start trading on Tuesday.

The Dogecoin Chart: After hitting the overhead resistance level, Dogecoin declined about 6% and began to consolidate sideways in lower time frames. Consolidation has pushed Dogecoin into a tightening area on the four-hour chart, with the last four hours of trading being within the previous four-hour area, creating a bullish pattern within the bar.
On the 24-hour chart, Dogecoin is trading in a confirmed uptrend that began on October 12th when the crypto hit a low of 21 cents. Dogecoin has since created a series of higher highs and higher lows, with the final low at $ 0.225. Dogecoin needs to stay above the level in order for the uptrend to remain intact.
The above-average volume on Monday indicates a high level of interest from traders and investors in Dogecoin. By late afternoon, the crypto was over 600 million in volume compared to the 10-day average of 280 million.
Dogecoin trades above the eight-day and 21-day exponential moving averages (EMA), with the eight-day EMA trading above the 21-day trend, both bullish indicators. Monday’s upward move also allowed Dogecoin to regain the simple 50-day moving average as support, suggesting that the longer-term sentiment in crypto has turned bullish.
