Dogecoin buyers are strongly represented among the traders on Binance Futures. At the time of writing, most of the Binance Futures accounts, 75.01%, were long, while 24.99% were short.
Consequently, the long/short ratio surpassed 3.0, which is usually a good measure of high market optimism.
This upside optimism increased as DOGE’s price surged from below $0.20 to over $0.30. When most futures traders are long, it usually means that there is a great deal of belief in additional price increases.
However, when combined, too many long positions can lead to more liquidation risk if the price drops sharply.
Meanwhile, according to the latest derivatives figures, the open interest in Dogecoin futures increased by 11.07% to $3.14 billion. The figure is the total number of open contracts and shows increased participation by market players. At the same time, the options open interest rose by 25.30% to $1.06 million.
However, it’s observed that options volume plummeted by 47.12% to $301K and total derivative activity fell by 19.33% to $8.29. This combination shows that traders are investing in their positions but are being cautious, maybe waiting for a breakout before increasing exposure.
Although DOGE’s futures volume is increasing, the drop in the spot trading activity suggests that the wider investor participation has not taken place. If leveraged positions rise in the absence of fresh spot buying activity, the market may experience increased risk of sharp price movements.
Dogecoin’s current market structure seems to be following a trend that is similar to what happened at the beginning of previous bull cycles. In the monthly view, DOGE’s RSI has spiked upwards from points where major bull runs have begun previously.
According to analysis by Trader Tardigrade, DOGE’s price tends to accelerate when RSI drops to current levels. In both 2017 and 2021, these RSI setups were accompanied by sharp price increases. As the RSI is moving higher again, it seems that bullish conditions may be developing.
Additionally, technical analyst DimaPotts36 shared a macro channel chart showing DOGE has broken its resistance level, a setup that mimicked the one before the 2017 and 2021 bull markets.
He notes that the breakout was characterized by the price revisiting the yellow trendline at $0.13, around April 14, 2025. Since that retest, DOGE’s price has been steadily rising, trading above $0.23.
According to his cycle, the upward move may take prices to $36, and even up to $69.42 if the momentum is strong. These levels correspond to the upper boundaries of the trend channel and previous major peaks.
Furthermore, based on ChandlerCharts, the current projections were generated by overlaying Bitcoin halving Fibonacci zones on DOGE.
His analysis shows that DOGE price cycles often top at these important zones. The last significant price highs for DOGE were in 2018 and 2021 at Fibonacci time levels of .236 and .382, and these levels should coincide again in Q4 2025.
Also, the RSI indicator on the weekly chart is also moving upwards as it was during the time before Dogecoin’s rapid rise in 2020. Such synchronization of technical tools and timing forecasts is prompting speculation that DOGE may be retracing its steps.
The long-term technicals are aligned with previous movements, but short-term conditions warn investors. A ratio of 3.0 represents a high bias among traders. In case the market goes down, these long positions may experience liquidations, causing sharp falls.
