A glance at the day ahead

The key levels to watch are the 61.8% Fibonacci resistance at $0.1704 and the 78.6% Fibonacci support at $0.1682.

If bulls take control and push Dogecoin through the 61.8% Fibonacci resistance at $0.1704, the 50.0% Fibonacci resistance at $0.1781 would be within reach. If the 50.0% Fib resistance

breaks, prices above $0.1801 could be hit in the day.

However, if bears take control and push Dogecoin through the 78.6% Fibonacci support, the next key level to watch would be the monthly support at $0.1607.  If Dogecoin pushes through

the monthly support, then prices below $0.1594 could be tested in the day.

On the other hand, if volumes are low within the day, Dogecoin could oscillate between the 61.8% Fibonacci resistance at $0.1704, and the 78.6% Fibonacci support at $0.1682.
