Bitcoin Price Watch: Bulls Target $120K Amid Strong Technical Breakout

Dogecoin hovered near $0.20 on Friday, nursing a weekly gain of about 17 
percent and a 24-hour trading volume above $2 billion as traders digested a 
late-June livestream by technical analyst Kevin, who argued that the meme- 
coin’s structure “has to be one of the best-looking altcoin charts out there.” 
Dogecoin Double Bottom Could Trigger $1 During the one-hour session Kevin 
highlighted a textbook double-bottom that printed on Dogecoin’s weekly chart 
exactly at the confluence of the 200-week simple and exponential moving 
averages, the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement of the 2023–2025 advance, and a 
long-term up-trend line dating back to the 2022 bear-market trough. Entering 
at that zone, he said, “the risk-reward here is phenomenal,” noting that a 
tight stop just below the cluster implied limited downside while upside 
targets stretched toward the previous cycle’s highs. Kevin told viewers the 
weekly momentum profile supports a larger breakout. Money-flow on Market 
Cipher is curling higher for the first time in more than a year; the MACD is 
preparing to cross bullish from a higher low; and the stochastic RSI has 
turned up from mid-range. On the monthly chart, relative strength continues to 
print higher highs and higher lows, and the stock-RSI “is hanging on, ready to 
push back up,” he said, adding that the entire structure “looks freakin’ 
great” for a sustained move once Bitcoin clears its own resistance band near 
$116,000. Related Reading: Dogecoin To $3.94 This Cycle? This Chart Says It’s 
No Meme His price map for the coming months begins with a purple resistance 
box between $0.94 and $1.31—the 2021 peak plus the 1.618 extension of the 
2022–24 base. “I’d be pretty shocked if Dogecoin can’t at least tag 94 cents,” 
Kevin said, stressing that a decisive break of a dollar would likely attract a 
new wave of retail traders and algorithmic trend-followers. He stopped short 
of offering an end-of-cycle target, but insisted “$1 remains likely,” 
conditional on Bitcoin extending toward the $150,000 region and—crucially—on 
macro tail-winds such as an end to quantitative tightening by the Federal 
Reserve. Even so, Kevin warned against complacency. Dogecoin’s intraday spike 
coincided with Bitcoin’s test of a major Fib cluster at $116,000, while USDT 
dominance hit golden-pocket support—levels that could spark a near-term 
cooldown. “Don’t be fooled by green candles,” he said, reminding viewers that 
meme-coins “can get crushed even in bull markets” and advising strict risk 
management: take partial profits after big thrusts, move stops to break-even, 
and “rinse and repeat.” Related Reading: Dogecoin Resistance Walls Ahead: 
Analyst Flags 3 Key Levels Beyond pure chart work, Kevin framed Dogecoin as a 
perpetual beneficiary of retail psychology. “You can walk into any gas station 
and someone owns Doge,” he quipped. “It’s the retail darling—it always will 
be—especially when new money shows up with deeper pockets than last time.” For 
now, price action is validating that thesis. If the double-bottom holds and 
macro conditions align, the analyst argues, Dogecoin could once again headline 
the next alt-season—this time with a dollar tag that traders in the last cycle 
could only meme about. At press time, DOGE traded at $0.1978. Featured image
