Retail Market Participants Have Also Started Buying 

In addition to the growing demand from crypto whales, on-chain data further emphasis that Dogecoin retail market demand has now exceeded supply.

The latest readings from the Aggregate Order Books data of 10 crypto exchanges including Binance and Coinbase, reveals that the bulls have placed active orders to buy 872 million DOGE around the current prices.

The Aggregate Order Books chart represents the summation the all active buy/sell orders that traders currently have listed across recognized crypto exchanges. Typically, when the buy-orders exceed the sell orders as observed above, it implies a the bullish momentum is currently dominant across the Dogecoin markets. 

Hence, with 62 million fewer DOGE coins currently up for sale relative to demand, the currently buyers may be forced to increase their bids to get their orders filled quickly. This could inadvertently drive Dogecoin price further toward the $0.1 area in the coming weeks.

DOGE Price Prediction: Slow March to $0.1?

Meanwhile, the daily timeframe technical analysis indicators also affirms this bullish stance. 

As of November, Dogecoin price is trading at $0.075, Ethereum Exponential Moving Average (EMA20) stands at $0.68, whereas the Simple Moving Averge (SMA-20) is at $0.067. 

With both the EMA and SMA positioned below the current Dogecoin price, it signifies a prevailing short-term bullish sentiment. 

Hence, if the bulls seize the momentum as predicted, DOGE will face initial resistance situated ath upper bollinger band around $0.77. However a decisive upswing above that level could see Dogecoin price reach a new 2023 peak around the $0.82 area.

Conversely, the bears could invalidate that bullish prediction if DOGE fails to defend the inital support level at the lower Bollinger band at $0.060. Although, unlikely due to the current level of whale demand, but a larger downswing below $0.060 mark could open the doors to further reversal toward $0.05.
