However, there was a sharp increase in buying volumes at mid-morning, and Dogecoin rallied. Dogecoin had pushed through multiple resistance levels within an hour and came close to testing the 78.6% Fibonacci resistance at $0.2057.

Dogecoin bounced off this support, and bulls were in control all through the evening. By the last hour of Tuesday trading, Dogecoin was close to testing the 61.8% Fibonacci resistance at $0.1942. 

Dogecoin started Wednesday trading bearish after it failed to test the 61.8% Fibonacci resistance in late Tuesday trading.

A glance at the day ahead

If bulls take control and push Dogecoin through the 50.0% Fibonacci resistance at $0.1860, the next key level to watch would be the 61.8% Fibonacci resistance at $0.1940.

If the 50.0% Fibonacci resistance is broken, prices above $0.21 could be seen in the day.

On the other hand, if volumes drop, Dogecoin could trade between the 50.0% Fibonacci resistance at $0.1860 and the 38.2% Fibonacci support at $0.1778.
