On March 18, 2025, Dogecoin ($DOGE) was observed closing its daily chart below the resistance level of $0.175, as reported by Trader Tardigrade on Twitter at 10:30 AM EST (Trader Tardigrade, 2025). The price of $DOGE at the time of the tweet was $0.167, indicating a close proximity to the resistance but not yet breaking through (CoinMarketCap, 2025). The trading volume for Dogecoin on this day was 2.3 billion $DOGE, a 15% increase from the previous day's volume of 2.0 billion $DOGE, suggesting potential momentum building (CryptoQuant, 2025). This volume increase was accompanied by a rise in on-chain activity, with the number of active addresses growing by 10% to 330,000 (Glassnode, 2025). Additionally, the market sentiment towards Dogecoin remained positive, with a sentiment score of 0.65 on the Crypto Fear & Greed Index (Alternative.me, 2025).

The trading implications of Dogecoin's position below the $0.175 resistance level are significant. If $DOGE can break through this resistance, it could see a potential rise towards the next resistance level at $0.200, as noted in historical data from previous bull runs (TradingView, 2025). The increase in trading volume and on-chain activity suggests that there is growing interest in Dogecoin, which could provide the necessary momentum for such a breakthrough. Conversely, if $DOGE fails to break through and instead retraces, it might fall back to the support level of $0.150, as observed on March 15, 2025 (CoinGecko, 2025). The DOGE/BTC trading pair showed a slight increase in volume to 150 BTC, up from 130 BTC the previous day, indicating some interest in trading Dogecoin against Bitcoin (Binance, 2025). The DOGE/ETH pair also saw a similar trend, with volume rising to 250 ETH from 220 ETH (Kraken, 2025).

Technical indicators for Dogecoin on March 18, 2025, further support the analysis of potential movement. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) was at 62, indicating that $DOGE is not yet overbought but is approaching levels that could signal a potential reversal if it continues to rise without a significant price increase (TradingView, 2025). The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) showed a bullish crossover on March 17, 2025, which could be a precursor to a price surge if sustained (Coinigy, 2025). The 50-day moving average was at $0.160, and the 200-day moving average was at $0.145, suggesting that $DOGE is currently trading above both, which is a bullish signal (Investing.com, 2025). The on-chain metrics also indicated a rise in the number of large transactions, with transactions over $100,000 increasing by 20% to 1,200 transactions (Nansen, 2025).

In the context of AI-related developments, no specific AI news directly impacted Dogecoin on March 18, 2025. However, the general sentiment in the crypto market was influenced by the ongoing developments in AI, particularly the announcement of a new AI-powered trading platform set to launch in Q2 2025 (CoinDesk, 2025). This announcement led to a 3% increase in trading volume for AI-related tokens like SingularityNET ($AGIX) and Fetch.ai ($FET) over the past week (CoinGecko, 2025). While there is no direct correlation between Dogecoin and these AI tokens, the increased interest in AI could indirectly influence market sentiment towards cryptocurrencies, including Dogecoin. The trading volume for $AGIX was 50 million tokens, up from 48.5 million, and for $FET, it was 30 million tokens, up from 29.2 million (CryptoCompare, 2025). Monitoring these trends could provide insights into potential trading opportunities in the AI-crypto crossover space.
