The Dogecoin price is facing renewed pressure as market watchers warn the meme coin may not be out of the woods yet. A crypto analyst warns that unless Dogecoin meets certain key conditions, its ongoing weakness could trigger another price crash, further extending its bearish trend.
Dogecoin Price Could Extend Downtrend
Like many meme coins, Dogecoin is experiencing a major downturn after failing to break key resistance levels. This continuous rejection has kept selling pressure intact and prevented the DOGE price from building sustained upward momentum. As a result, Dogecoin’s bearish structure, which has been in place for months, shows few signs of relief. Bulls are also facing major roadblocks, leaving Dogecoin vulnerable to further declines so long as it trades below key levels.
According to crypto market expert KrissPax, Dogecoin remains weak and could extend its already intense downtrend if its price fails to recover. He explained that without a solid bullish catalyst to drive the price upward, the meme coin could experience another price crash.
KrissPax presented a TradingView chart showing just how far he believes Dogecoin could decline if it fails to recapture market interest and demand. Firstly, the chart highlights a higher-timeframe descending channel pattern that began after the broader market flash crash on October 10, 2025. At the time, Dogecoin recorded one of its largest single-day price crashes, falling from above $0.26 to below $0.10 before quickly recovering.
Following that steep decline, Dogecoin price remained stuck in the descending channel, with its overall structure reflecting a bearish trend. Typically, a descending channel pattern favors more downside pressure unless a decisive breakout occurs. So far, Dogecoin has made a few recovery attempts; however, its price has failed to sustain any bullish rally.
Recent price action, as shown in the chart, also indicates consolidation near the lower to middle part of the channel, with a gradual base forming around $0.12-$0.14. For now, a clear break below the lower trendline of the channel would confirm the continuation of Dogecoin’s prolonged downtrend. On the flip side, a breakout above the upper trendline of the descending channel with volume confirmation could invalidate DOGE’s bearish structure and signal a potential trend change.
Update On Dogecoin’s Current Price Action
According to CoinMarketCap data at the time of writing, Dogecoin remains in negative territory, recording a price correction of more than 3% over the past 24 hours. Data indicates that the meme coin’s daily, weekly, and monthly price performances are in a pronounced slump. If this trend persists, Dogecoin could close January in the red, extending the downtrend that marked the end of 2025.
Beyond weak price action, Dogecoin’s total market capitalization has also declined by more than 3%. Daily trading volume remains subdued, down over 2.5%, further highlighting waning investor confidence and reduced interest in the meme coin.
