Dogecoin's (DOGE) price is up 10% on Jan. 17, forming a higher value of $0.42 on the one-day chart. A candle close above $0.40 will signal a strong trend reversal for the memecoin, which has consolidated between $0.45 and $0.30 since Nov. 11. 
With the crypto market picking up steam ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s move back into the White House, traders expect another blitz breakout for DOGE next week.
DOGE is the strongest “dino” coin after Bitcoin and XRP
Daan Crypto, a crypto trader and investor, highlighted that DOGE’s recent price breakout was the result of two accumulation periods between $0.30 and $0.33. At the start of 2025, DOGE registered a swing failure pattern (SFP), which pushed the price below $0.40 again. 
However, the recent retest and recovery above $0.35 has established a strong foundation for Dogecoin to rally further. The trader said,
Additionally, the analyst believes that DOGE has the strongest case as a “dino” coin after BTC and XRP. Dino or normie is a term that gained traction at the end of 2024 when previous bull market crypto assets like XRP (XRP), Hedera (HBAR), Cardano (ADA), Stellar (XLM), etc., started pumping better than newer narrative tokens. Dogecoin realized a similar breakout of 222% in two weeks in November 2024. 
Market interest is starting to flood again, as data from Santiment highlighted a $200 million purchase from DOGE whales over the past 48 hours.

Likewise, Johnny, a crypto investor, told his 785K followers that retail may have a similar impact on DOGE as they had on XRP. The investor believed that once the memecoin starts trending, it will trend “hard again” and it will hit its psychological level at $1. 
Mikybull, a technical analyst, also shared a similar outlook after the crypto asset breached a bullish pennant, as illustrated above. A similar price target of $1 was expected following the pattern break.
