The post Dogecoin Price Repeating Mini Cycles—Is Another Big Move on the Horizon? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

The Dogecoin price has been capped below a crucial resistance range since February, which has dropped by more than 6% in the past few days. The price is down by 3.43% to $0.0904, significantly underperforming a slightly weaker broader market, primarily driven by derivatives-led selling pressure. In the meantime, the on-chain activity begins to rise, despite the DOGE price action remaining muted. This suggests that a larger move could be building beneath the surface. 

The question now arises: will the Dogecoin price repeat the previous pattern and explode, or will there be yet another sideways consolidation?

Rising Active Addresses Signal Renewed Interest

Recent data shows that Dogecoin’s daily active users have climbed to around 53K, marking a noticeable recovery in network activity over the past few weeks. After a prolonged period of relatively flat engagement, the uptick in active addresses suggests renewed user participation, increased transaction activity and growing market attention. 

Historically, such rises in network activity have often aligned with early-stage accumulation phases, where interest begins to build before price expansion. However, this alone does not confirm a bullish breakout. While rising activity supports a constructive outlook, it needs to be backed by strong price action to validate any sustained upward trend.

Dogecoin Price Analysis: Mini Cycles Hint at Repetition

The Dogecoin price has been consolidating within a narrow range between $0.0902 and $0.0970 from the past few days, suggesting tight accumulation. From a technical perspective, the price appears to be following a repeating structure of accumulation, then markup, pullback and later consolidation. Previously, this trade set up have delivered nearly 190% gains in the first breakout and over 480% rally in the second phase. 

Currently, DOGE seems to be forming a potential third accumulation zone as the price continues to move sideways within a defined range. 

The above charts suggest the price remains within a range bound by lower highs. Momentum is still weak and indecisive with no confirmed breakout structure. This suggests that while the pattern resembles past cycles, the current phase lacks the strength seen before previous rallies. The structure is similar, but the confirmation is still missing. For now, the next direction depends on how the price reacts to these levels. 

A breakout above the $0.13–$0.15 zone could signal a shift in momentum and open the door for a move toward $0.25 and higher levels. On the other hand, a breakdown below $0.08 may weaken the structure and delay any bullish continuation. In simple terms, Dogecoin is not in a trend yet—it’s in a setup phase. While the pattern suggests the possibility of another rally, only a confirmed breakout will validate the move.

Final Verdict: Can Dogecoin Follow Its Historical Cycle and Reach $0.7?

From a broader perspective, Dogecoin’s chart still carries a long-term bullish possibility, mainly driven by its repeating accumulation cycles. If this cycle plays out, a confirmed breakout above the descending resistance and the $0.13–$0.15 zone could be the first signal of strength. 

Beyond that, sustained momentum could push DOGE toward the $0.45–$0.50 range, and in a more extended bullish scenario, the target could escalate to $0.7. However, this outlook remains conditional. The bullish trajectory depends entirely on whether Dogecoin can break out of its current range and maintain higher highs. Until then, the long-term scenario remains a possibility—not a certainty.

WASHINGTON — The Senate agreed unanimously early Friday to fund the Department of Homeland Security, but without funding for immigration enforcement and deportation operations.

Senators approved the package at 2:20 a.m. by voice vote following a marathon session.

The 42-day funding lapse has seen them go without pay, leading many to call out of work and causing long lines at airports. While the measure still needs to pass the House, the Senate vote paves the way to allow airports to fully function again.

The legislation would fund all of DHS except Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, which Democrats have refused to vote for without significant reforms to immigration raids and deportation practices.

The deal followed arduous bipartisan negotiations that occurred in fits and starts over the last six weeks, succumbing to the impasse around policy changes to immigration enforcement. Under the new plan, Democrats get their weeks-long demand to fund the department with the exceptions of ICE or CBP, but also without the restrictions they sought on how immigration officers may conduct operations.

“This could have been done three weeks ago,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said. “This is exactly what we wanted.”

The bill faces an uncertain future in the Republican-controlled House. It is expected to have President Donald Trump’s support, which could help corral conservatives who have been skeptical about splitting off ICE funding from the underlying bill.

“Hopefully they’ll be around, and we can get at least a lot of the government opened up again, and then we’ll go from there,” Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said of the House and a potential vote on Friday. He said he texted with Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Thursday night.

The Senate adjourned for a two-week recess, leaving the House with few options other than to accept their bill as written.

Thune separately blamed Democrats. “President Trump should never have had to step in to rescue TSA workers and U.S. air travel. We are here because, thanks to Democrats’ determined refusal to reach an agreement, there will be no Homeland Security funding bill this year.”

Speaking after the vote, Schumer said: “In the wake of the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, Senate Democrats were clear. No blank check for a lawless ICE and Border Patrol.”

He added that the “long overdue agreement” funds TSA, the Coast Guard, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and “strengthens security at the border and the ports of entry, and keeps Americans safe.”

He added that the deal “could have been accomplished weeks ago if Republicans hadn’t stood in the way.”

The White House and Republicans declined to grant Democrats’ demands to restrict Trump’s immigration practices. They now plan to pursue the remainder for funding for ICE and CBP in a separate party-line bill, which they could also use to pass Iran war funding and elements of the Trump-backed SAVE America Act.

Senate Republicans held a vote open for hours Thursday as the two sides continued to negotiate, having traded offers for days.

Trump, meanwhile, announced earlier Thursday that he would instruct newly sworn-in Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin to “immediately pay our TSA Agents in order to address this Emergency Situation.”

That move may not be needed if the House passes the Senate legislation, according to a senior administration official, who said the White House is waiting to see what will happen.

This official also said the funds to pay TSA agents would come from the so-called One Big Beautiful Bill, the tax-cut and spending legislation Trump signed into law in July. It’s not clear exactly how that would work, but the administration has dipped into those unspent funds before to cover pay gaps during funding lapses.

The House can either debate and vote out the Senate-passed measures in the Rules Committee before bringing them to the floor under a simple majority vote, or Johnson can seek to fast-track it to the floor.

The House was set to hold an unrelated vote at 10 a.m. before leaving for recess.

TSA officers missed their first full paychecks in mid-March, leading many to call out of work. Call-out rates for TSA officers have exceeded 11% nationally, with rates at some airports passing 40%.

Trump sent ICE agents to airports to help TSA earlier this week. Unlike TSA officers, ICE agents continue to receive paychecks during the partial shutdown as a result of funding from the so-called One Big Beautiful Bill, a sweeping GOP domestic policy package, that Trump signed into law last year.

The S&P 500 Index continued its strong downward trend last week as the Iran war continued, pushing crude oil and natural gas prices higher.

The SPX index fell to $6,368, its lowest level since August last year. It has fallen in the last five consecutive weeks.

S&P 500 Index in focus as Iran war takes new twist

The S&P 500 Index and other American indices like the Dow Jones and the Nasdaq 100 will be in the spotlight this week as the US-Iran war takes a new twist.

Yemen’s Ansah Allah, popularly known as Houthis, entered the war on Friday by shooting rockets towards Israel.

The group has committed to continuing fighting in the coming weeks, meaning that it may make it hard for oil tankers to transit through the Red Sea.

At the same time, the United States has sent troops to the region, with the ultimate goal being the control of the Kharg Island and the Strait of Hormuz.

All these events mean that the war will continue in the foreseeable future, pushing energy prices substantially higher in the coming weeks. 

Already, data shows that Brent and the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) jumped to $112 and $100, up by over 100% from the lowest level this year.

A continuation of this war will lead to a lower S&P 500 Index.

US non-farm payrolls data 

The other key catalyst for the S&P 500 Index will be the upcoming US non-farm payrolls (NFP) data, which will come out on Friday this week.

Economists expect the upcoming report to show that the labor market likely rebounded in February after shedding thousands of jobs in the previous month.

The average estimate is that the economy created 60k jobs in March after losing 92k in the previous month. The unemployment rate is expected to move from 4.4% to 4.5%.

Still, the labor market has largely stalled in the past few months, a trend that may continue in the coming months as the war in Iran leads to substantial shivers in the economy.

Indeed, the expected increase will partly be because of healthcare payrolls by over 30,000 Kaiser Permanente employees, who ended their strike.

A weaker jobs report will be bullish for the stock market as it may put pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. The challenge, however, is that the US is going through stagflation, which is characterized by high inflation and slow economic growth.

In addition to the labor market data, the S&P 500 Index will react to the upcoming manufacturing and services PMIs from the United States. Economists expect the data to show that these numbers dropped modestly in March as the Iran war pushed energy prices higher.

SPX Index technical analysis as death cross forms

The daily timeframe chart shows that the S&P 500 Index has slumped in the past few weeks, moving from a high of $7,000 in February to the current $6,368. 

It has slumped below the 23.6% Fibonacci Retracement level. Also, the index has formed a death cross pattern as the 50-day and 200-day Weighted Moving Averages (WMA) have crossed each other.

The Average Directional Index (ADX) has jumped to 40, a sign that the downtrend is gaining momentum. It has moved below the Supertrend indicator.

Therefore, the index will continue falling, with the next key target to watch being the 38.2% retracement level at $6,130.
