Dogecoin has seen a surge in futures volume on major crypto exchange Bitmex. According to CoinGlass data, Dogecoin saw 4,858% jump in futures volume on Bitmex crypto exchange, reaching $77.61 million.
Dogecoin reversed a strong run in early 2026, falling for three days consecutively from Jan. 6 to 8, and will mark the fourth day of dropping if today ends in losses.
At press time, DOGE was up 0.31% in the last 24 hours to $0.14 and up 8.36% weekly.
Optimism remains on the market as signs of a crypto reset are emerging after December’s sell-off. In a recent tweet, Coinbase Institutional outlines four signs of a crypto reset after December’s sell-off. This includes fresh inflows into spot BTC and ETH ETFs, low leverage, balanced order books and options positioning, hinting that the market might be setting up for a Q1 bounce.
If this is the scenario, Dogecoin might aim for a retest of the $0.156 level ahead of the $0.193 level, which coincides with the daily MA 200. A decisive break above these levels might open the door toward $0.27 and then $0.30. On the other hand, we will wait to see if Dogecoin will convert the daily MA 50 - previously resistance, which capped its price action since early October - into support.
