Dogecoin Creates Golden Cross for the First Time Since November

Meme cryptocurrencies may soon heat up as their leader, Dogecoin, has formed a golden cross, hinting at a major price surge ahead.

A golden cross occurs when the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) of an asset’s price moves above the 200-day SMA. This crossover indicates that short-term momentum is now outperforming the longer trajectory, with the potential to evolve into a significant bull run.

Dogecoin’s averages crossed bullish early today. While the golden cross is seen as a positive indicator, it has a mixed record of predicting trends in various markets, including equities, Bitcoin, and DOGE. This makes it unreliable as a standalone indicator.

That said, most of DOGE’s previous significant moves occurred with the appearance of the golden cross. For example, prices surged over 130% to 46 cents in four weeks following the golden cross on Nov. 6, 2024. Prices rose 25% in four weeks after the averages crossed bullish on Nov. 22, 2023.

Additionally, a golden cross happened in early November 2020, marking the beginning of a major four-month bull run that saw prices rally over 1,000% in that period.

Let’s see if history repeats itself.
