Dogecoin Flirts With An Inverse Head And Shoulders: $0.15 Break Is The Trigger

2026/01/16 20:30

Dogecoin (DOGE) is trying to base on higher timeframes as Cantonese Cat points to a potential inverse head-and-shoulders on the daily, with price compressing just beneath a defined resistance shelf while holding a nearby demand zone.

Dogecoin Breakout Could Target $0.19

In a daily chart (DOGE/USD, Binance) shared via X on Jan. 16, Cantonese Cat overlays an inverse head-and-shoulders schematic: a left shoulder in early December, a deeper “head” into late December near the mid-$0.11s, and a developing right shoulder as price rotates lower after the early-January spike.

The key feature on that daily view is a highlighted “Buy order block” spanning roughly $0.1250 to $0.1350. Price is shown pulling back toward the top of that block after failing to hold the most recent push higher, which places the current trade location in a classic “right shoulder” area if the pattern is going to remain constructive.

Above the current spot price, the chart marks a horizontal grey resistance (“the shoulder”) band at roughly $0.149–$0.152. This is the area DOGE needs to reclaim for the inverse H&S thesis to transition from “forming” to “triggering,” because it has acted as supply on recent tests.

Using Cantonese Cat’s daily inverse head-and-shoulders chart, the measured move is the neckline minus the head low, projected upward from the neckline: the neckline is the grey supply band centered near $0.151 (label on the axis), while the head prints at roughly $0.116. That gives a height of about $0.035, implying a pattern target near $0.186.

Notably, that objective runs directly into the chart’s overhead red supply zone, which begins around $0.175 and extends up toward $0.19, making that area the first obvious region where a confirmed breakout would be expected to meet meaningful resistance.

DOGE 2-Day Bollinger Bands Signal Momentum

Notably, the Bollinger Bands on the 2-day chart support the mid-term bullish thesis. On Tuesday, Cantonese Cat highlighted that DOGE is trading above the Bollinger basis around $0.1343, while the upper band is near $0.1526 and the lower band near $0.1160.

Cantonese Cat summarized the idea succinctly: “Price wanting to hang out at the top part of the Bollinger band? We have a chance here?” In practice, the “top part” framing matters because it’s a momentum tell. After an extended decline, sustained closes above the basis and into the upper half of the bands can signal that sellers are no longer controlling the volatility profile, even before price clears the obvious horizontal resistance.

That said, the 2D view also makes the immediate problem clear: the upper band sits close to the same zone highlighted on the daily as resistance. In other words, the bullish thesis is not just “hold support,” but “prove it” with acceptance above the $0.15–$0.152 region.

If DOGE continues to defend the $0.1250–$0.1350 buy-side block and reclaims the $0.149–$0.152 supply band, the inverse head-and-shoulders thesis gains credibility. The next areas the chart itself flags are the higher supply zones around $0.175 and the upper-$0.18s region, where prior selling pressure was visible.

If price loses the buy order block, the pattern read weakens materially. In that case, the Bollinger structure on the 2D chart points attention back toward the lower band region near $0.1160 and the late-December lows.

At press time, DOGE traded at $0.139.

Fed forecasts only one rate cut in 2026, a more conservative outlook than expected

The post Fed forecasts only one rate cut in 2026, a more conservative outlook than expected appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell talks to reporters following the regular Federal Open Market Committee meetings at the Fed on July 30, 2025 in Washington, DC. Chip Somodevilla | Getty Images The Federal Reserve is projecting only one rate cut in 2026, fewer than expected, according to its median projection. The central bank’s so-called dot plot, which shows 19 individual members’ expectations anonymously, indicated a median estimate of 3.4% for the federal funds rate at the end of 2026. That compares to a median estimate of 3.6% for the end of this year following two expected cuts on top of Wednesday’s reduction. A single quarter-point reduction next year is significantly more conservative than current market pricing. Traders are currently pricing in at two to three more rate cuts next year, according to the CME Group’s FedWatch tool, updated shortly after the decision. The gauge uses prices on 30-day fed funds futures contracts to determine market-implied odds for rate moves. Here are the Fed’s latest targets from 19 FOMC members, both voters and nonvoters: Zoom In IconArrows pointing outwards The forecasts, however, showed a large difference of opinion with two voting members seeing as many as four cuts. Three officials penciled in three rate reductions next year. “Next year’s dot plot is a mosaic of different perspectives and is an accurate reflection of a confusing economic outlook, muddied by labor supply shifts, data measurement concerns, and government policy upheaval and uncertainty,” said Seema Shah, chief global strategist at Principal Asset Management. The central bank has two policy meetings left for the year, one in October and one in December. Economic projections from the Fed saw slightly faster economic growth in 2026 than was projected in June, while the outlook for inflation was updated modestly higher for next year.
