- Over $200 million in DOGE was purchased within 24 hours, driven by whale-led accumulation.
- DOGE’s price rose 4% from $0.22 to $0.23, with strong support at $0.22 and resistance at $0.23.
- The final trading hour saw a 1% drop to $0.227 due to institutional selling pressure.
Whale-led accumulation dominated early and mid-session flows, with over $200 million in DOGE purchased over 24 hours. The $0.22 level held firmly on multiple retests, drawing in leveraged long positioning. However, the $0.23 resistance zone triggered profit-taking from short-term traders and potential distribution from large holders.
DOGE rises 4% in the 24-hour period ending August 9, climbing from $0.22 to $0.23 between August 8 04:00 and August 9 03:00. The move spans a $0.01 range, marking 5% volatility.
Support holds at $0.22 during the 05:00 session on strong bid-side volume of 262.2 million. Resistance emerges at $0.23 in the 14:00 hour as selling pressure accelerates, with volume peaking at 780.9 million. Supply zone above $0.23 caps upside momentum.
