Dogecoin (DOGE), the popular meme-coin, has experienced an impressive 94% recovery from its low of $0.0491 in June 2022, currently trading at around $0.0942. Despite this significant rebound, the cryptocurrency is still 88% below its all-time high of $0.76 set in May 2021.
The <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/cryptocurrencies/dogecoin/">DOGE</a>/USD pair has yet to establish a decisive bullish reversal on longer timeframes, leaving investors wondering whether a more substantial recovery is on the horizon.

Dogecoin&#8217;s rise in 2021 was primarily fueled by Tesla CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s vocal support. However, the DOGE/USD price peaked after Musk referred to the cryptocurrency as a &#8220;hustle&#8221; during his appearance on Saturday Night Live in May 2021.
The impact of Musk&#8217;s comment was amplified by the prospect of the Fed&#8217;s tightening, which eventually led to actual interest rate cuts in 2022 and 2023.
Furthermore, DOGE was dealt a big blow by <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/news/crypto-market-declines-as-concerns-over-silvergate-bank-spread/">the collapse of several major crypto firms</a> including <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/cryptocurrencies/terra-luna-2/">Terra (LUNA)</a>, Three Arrow Capital, and FTX. These events contributed to the selloff of DOGE, sending the cryptocurrency into a prolonged bearish cycle.
In October 2022, Dogecoin&#8217;s price doubled, coinciding with Musk&#8217;s controversial takeover of Twitter. Investors hoped that DOGE would become the social media platform&#8217;s official payment token.
Despite <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/news/elon-musks-favorite-cryptocurrency-takes-a-hit-after-twitter-logo-change/">Musk temporarily replacing Twitter&#8217;s bluebird logo with Dogecoin&#8217;s Shiba Inu mascot</a> earlier this month, that fueled a 40% rally in DOGE&#8217;s price, the platform has yet to implement DOGE payments, leaving the cryptocurrency&#8217;s future uncertain.
To reach its all-time high again, Dogecoin would need to rise by 700%, which may only happen if it sees broader adoption, such as becoming a payment option on Twitter.
From a technical perspective, Dogecoin&#8217;s bullish reversal will depend on maintaining support above two key weekly exponential moving averages (EMA) &#8211; the 50-week EMA at $0.0917 and the 200-week EMA at $0.0895.

While a similar 30,000% price rally like the one seen in 2020-2021 may not occur in 2023, positive catalysts such as a reversal of the Fed&#8217;s interest rate policy or the addition of Dogecoin payments on Twitter could propel DOGE toward its record high of $0.76 this year.
However, if Dogecoin fails to hold its key EMA levels, it risks triggering a bearish continuation pattern known as the ascending triangle. This would indicate a potential drop in price, with year-end price targets falling between $0.0363 and $0.0469, representing a 45-60% decrease from current levels.
