Crypto Market Flatlines with No Major News to Influence

It was a quiet day on the crypto news wires, leaving the broader market in the red by the day end.

The lack of direction followed a Friday partial recovery of losses from Thursday. Regulatory risk remains a consideration for the crypto market. This week, the headline news was the EU parliamentary vote to introduce KYC for private wallets.

DOGE Price Action

At the time of writing, DOGE was up 0.79% to $0.1399.

Technical Indicators

DOGE will need to move through the day’s $0.1404 pivot to make a run on the First Major Resistance Level at $0.1428. DOGE would need the broader crypto market to support a move back through $0.1420 levels.

An extended rally would test the Second Major Resistance Level at $0.1467 and resistance at $0.15. The Third Major Resistance Level sits at $0.1530.

Failure to move through the pivot would test the First Major Support Level at $0.1365. Barring an extended sell-off, DOGE should steer clear of sub-$0.1350 levels. The Second Major Support Level sits at $0.1341.

Looking at the EMAs and the 4-hourly candlestick chart (below), it is a bullish signal. DOGE sits at the 50-day EMA, currently at $0.1395. This morning, 50-day EMA narrowed to the 100-day EMA. The 100-day EMA pulled away from the 200-day EMA after this week’s bullish cross; DOGE positive.

A breakout from the 50-day EMA would support a move back through to $0.1450.

Technical Indicators

An extended rally would test the Second Major Resistance Level at $0.0000281. The Third Major Resistance Level sits at $0.0000297.

Failure to move through the pivot would bring the First Major Support Level at $0.0000254 into play. Barring an extended sell-off, SHIB should steer clear of sub-$0.000025 levels. The Second Major Support Level sits at $0.0000248.

Looking at the EMAs and the 4-hourly candlestick chart (below), it is a bullish signal. SHIB sits at the 50-day EMA at $0.0000260. This morning, the 50-day EMA narrowed to the 100-day EMA. The 100-day EMA pulled away from the 200-day EMA after Tuesday’s bullish cross.
