Dogecoin (DOGE) price action is against long traders, as they have suffered more losses in the recent liquidation event recorded by the meme coin on the crypto market CoinGlass data reveals that, in the last four hours, there was a 2,055% liquidation imbalance, as total losses amounted to $1.14 million.
Dogecoin price rebound stalls
Notably, traders betting long on Dogecoin saw $1,090,000 of their capital wiped out in the liquidation as prices shifted on the market. The investors were anticipating a continued rapid bullish climb for the meme coin, particularly as DOGE recovered quickly after dropping to $0.1495 within the last 24 hours.
However, following the quick recovery to reclaim the $0.15 support, the meme coin has evened out and refused to continue its upward momentum. Even with the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which rose to 79.67, dropping to 56.93, upward price movement has not resumed.
This surprise neutrality has left few long-term traders in losses due to their higher exposure. The price is continuing its sideways movement, with no sign of upward mobility.
As of press time, Dogecoin changed hands at $0.1505, which represents a 2.45% increase in the last 24 hours. Although the meme coin previously soared to $0.1535, it quickly witnessed a slight correction, a development that further increased the losses investors recorded.
Stability above $0.1535 might have provided some sort of relief on the liquidations market. It is worth mentioning that short-position traders also registered mild losses to the tune of $50,590.
Meanwhile, it appears the recent uptick in price might not linger for long as trading volume has slipped into the red zone. It is down by 0.52% to $1.87 billion, suggesting that market participants might have begun profit-taking moves following a slight price increase.
Dogecoin trading volume outlook
This marks a significant shift from how Dogecoin opened 2026, with a huge surge and up to a 57.3% spike in volume. Increased traders’ engagement had sparked hopes of a bullish start to the year.
With the current outlook, the ability of the leading meme coin to stay above $0.15 might determine if further spikes will be registered.
Dogecoin’s technical setup indicates a golden cross formation, which might be the catalyst to propel DOGE to the $0.20 level. However, this needs the support of the community to actively engage and push volume to a staggering level to validate the bullish potential of the asset.

Wintermute: BTC finds support at the 200-week moving average; a clear macro environment is needed to resume upward movement
Foresight News reports that Wintermute stated, "The road to a crypto market recovery depends on the clarity of macroeconomic conditions. The 200-week moving average still provides support, and the lack of structural damage means that when the recovery occurs, the rebound could be stronger than market sentiment suggests. Currently, we are in a range-bound and downward trend, with leverage factors dominating short-term market movements. Recently, $70,000 remains a resistance level. A recovery in the second half of 2026 is possible, but to achieve this, most participants will need to have exhausted their patience."

"Has the 'true bottom' not arrived yet? Experts warn: Bitcoin may face a 'surrender sell-off' in the final dip"
Just last week, Bitcoin experienced a thrilling "Raging Bull" rally, dropping over 10% in a single day and nearly breaching the $60,000 mark. Although it then rebounded strongly back to around $70,000, has this rapid sell-off already constituted a so-called "capitulation sell-off"? That is, investors panic and sell at a loss, completely releasing selling pressure and paving the way for the next bull market.
However, from the perspective of the derivatives market, the answer is probably no. According to Amberdata Derivatives Director Greg Magadini's observations, the signals from the futures market suggest that Bitcoin may still have further downside potential.
In his market report on Monday, Greg Magadini pointed out that during this decline, the futures basis (the difference between futures and spot prices) reacted noticeably cold, without the sharp changes often seen in bear markets. He said:
