Dogecoin has started February with a sharp 23% price drop, worrying investors. Historical data suggests that February is often a weak month for DOGE, but some analysts still predict a major rally ahead.
Data from CryptoRank shows that Dogecoin has seen an average 1% loss in February since its launch in 2013. The meme coin has only managed to close the month with gains four times in the last 12 years.
While DOGE has rarely lost more than 20% in February, the worst drop was in 2014, when it fell over 30%. With the current 23% dip, investors are wondering if a relief bounce is possible to ease the losses.
Despite the bearish historical trend, analysts believe Dogecoin could still see a massive rally. Crypto analyst Master Kenobi compared DOGE’s current price action to its 2017 bull run and suggested the coin could surge above $1 by April.
Another analyst, Ali Martinez, remains even more bullish. He believes that as long as Dogecoin holds above $0.19, the setup for a parabolic rally toward $10 is still strong.
Similarly, Trader Tardigrade pointed to the Average Directional Index (ADX), which measures trend strength. He predicted that DOGE could reach $4.5 in the coming weeks if momentum builds as expected.
As of now, Dogecoin is trading at $0.25, down 4% in the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap. While history suggests a challenging February, analysts remain optimistic about DOGE’s long-term potential.
Will Dogecoin recover from this crash, or is more downside ahead? Investors will be watching closely in the coming weeks.
