The improbable $1 price target for Dogecoin has returned to the spotlight 
after independent crypto analyst Cantonese Cat (@cantonmeow) shared a bold new 
Ichimoku-based projection on July 3. In a chart posted to X, the analyst 
outlined a parabolic price trajectory for DOGE using 2-week candles, 
suggesting that the memecoin could begin an explosive ascent in late 2025, 
eventually reaching the symbolic one-dollar mark. The $1 Dogecoin Dream The 
projection rests on DOGE’s ability to maintain current bullish structure above 
the Ichimoku cloud, with a brief retest later this year during liftoff. “DOGE 
2-week candles, Ichimoku cloud shown. Why am I buying doge? Because I’m 
delusional and this is what I’m thinking,” the trader wrote, pairing tongue- 
in-cheek self-awareness with conviction in a longer-term breakout scenario. At 
the time of the chart’s publication, Dogecoin was trading at $0.172, up nearly 
14% on the fortnight. The price action shows a clean bounce off the top of the 
green Ichimoku cloud, suggesting that DOGE is holding bullish structure on a 
high timeframe, a key technical criterion in Ichimoku trend-following theory.

Analyst—Here’s The Target The Ichimoku Cloud (Kumo) on the 2-week timeframe, 
calculated with the traditional 9/26/52/26 settings, shows the Leading Span A 
(Senkou A) currently above Leading Span B (Senkou B), forming a green 
cloud—indicative of a bullish trend outlook. DOGE’s price is above the cloud, 
which acts as dynamic support. This is critical: Ichimoku practitioners 
consider price above the cloud to be in a bullish regime, especially on higher 
timeframes. The analyst’s hand-drawn black curve on the chart begins near 
$0.17 and initially curves downward, touching the upper boundary of the Kumo 
in the near future, likely near the $0.15–0.16 zone. This suggests an expected 
retest of the cloud support, a common setup in trend continuation trades. 
Rather than projecting a breakdown, the curve depicts this contact as a 
springboard for a rapid vertical rally. Related Reading: Dogecoin Under $0.20 
‘Is Free,’ Says Analyst—Predicts 2,000% Upside Once the price completes its 
cloud retest, the trajectory steepens dramatically, punching through overhead 
resistance near $0.29—the approximate flat Kijun-sen level—then continuing 
past prior 2024 highs. The final stretch of the curve accelerates toward the 
$1 level sometime in 2026, consistent with the behavior seen in prior memecoin 
mania phases. Interestingly, Cantonese Cat’s conviction comes despite several 
bearish near-term signals. Just two days prior to publishing the chart, the 
analyst wrote: “DOGE closed the month below the 20-month SMA, with a bearish 
engulfing candle! I would care if the volume wasn’t so pathetic…” That 
statement acknowledged structural weakness but dismissed it on the basis of 
low participation, hinting that sellers lacked conviction. The same day, the 
trader disclosed renewed entries into DOGE and Avalanche, stating, “I don’t 
know if I’m doing it right, but I bought AVAX and DOGE again this morning.” 
Broader Context DOGE’s memetic status makes it particularly susceptible to 
sentiment shifts, and it remains uncorrelated to fundamentals in the 
traditional sense. Still, in the 2021 and 2024 bull markets, DOGE served as a 
proxy for retail risk appetite, often outperforming once attention rotated 
from majors like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The green cloud forecast and the rising 
trajectory into 2026 may reflect not just technical setups, but a broader 
cyclical expectation: that another wave of liquidity, speculative mania, or 
cultural relevance could return DOGE to the spotlight. For now, however, the 
price must hold the cloud before the market can validate this roadmap. At 
press time, DOGE traded at $0.1678. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart
