Trading volumes surpassed 1.4 billion DOGE during the rapid selloff between 07:00 and 08:00 UTC. High selling pressure followed large-scale transactions by so-called “whale” investors, who collectively exited 360 million DOGE, equaling $74 million, as the broader cryptocurrency sector declined by 6% due to news of new U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports.

By late trading, Dogecoin rebounded from its morning low and finished the session near $0.186. The asset saw stronger support at $0.18, with buyers actively placing bids at that level. Attempts to break resistance at $0.188–$0.189 were met with persistent selling. In the futures market, trader positioning showed no strong bias, reflecting uncertainty over potential changes in U.S. Federal Reserve policy and inflation.

The market’s early decline coincided with the announcement of 100% tariffs on Chinese imports by the U.S. administration, which caused risk assets in Asia to fall. According to market observers, “heavy bids around $0.18 indicate accumulation rather than a widespread exit.” Funding rates in the derivatives market returned to average levels shortly after a jump in short selling, hinting at more balanced sentiment.

Technical signals showed a consolidation pattern with tight price movement late in the day and falling volume, suggesting traders are waiting for new developments. Support at $0.175–$0.180 was considered crucial. A move above the $0.19 resistance could open the path toward the $0.20–$0.21 range.

Traders continue to monitor for confirmation of short-term price floors, further large investor actions, ETF optimism, and any updates from the U.S. Federal Reserve regarding tariffs and liquidity.
