Amid the recent altcoin market selloff, the popular memecoin DOGE wasn’t spared as it succumbed to significant outflows on September 10th. Notably, this drop sent the coin price below the critical support trendline which carried a relief rally for over three weeks. Such a breakdown typically signals a continuation of the downtrend, suggesting DOGE price is poised for further fall.

In the preceding weeks, the Dogecoin price moved largely sideways but witnessed strong support from an ascending trendline. This memecoin obtained a surge in buying pressure every time it dipped to this support, carrying a relief rally in the daily chart. This setup often emerges in an established downtrend and recuperates the selling pressure for further downfall.
Come September 11th, the DOGE price decisively broke below the support trendline, diving to a $0.0593 low. However, the bulls were quick to react, pushing the price up in a retest of the now-resistance trendline. At the time of writing, the Dog-themed coin stands at $0.061, and the price rejection wick at the top reflects the overhead supply pressure.
If this retest phase shows price sustainability below the trendline, this coin price might see an additional decline of roughly 8%, targeting the $0.056 zone.
Can DOGE Price Regain Trend Control?
Despite its severity, the bearish candle on September 10th, lacked substantial follow-through in subsequent days, hinting at potential bearish exhaustion. Should the buyers regain control and push DOGE above $0.0636, it would likely invalidate the recent breakdown, potentially marking it as a bear trap. Such a development could reignite buying interest, shifting the momentum back in favor of the bulls.
