DOGE interest rose 19 percent to a monthly high as the price ‘climbed’
Traders are increasing their positions on Dogecoin, reaching a monthly high on July 20.
“DOGE is emerging and appears to be prime for offensive activity,” wrote Shelby, a pseudo-anonymous crypto trader, in a July 20 X post. According to data from CoinMarketCap, Doge's price was “encouraging” other altcoins to follow suit, including FLOKI and Shiba Inu (SHIB).
Meanwhile, crypto trading accounts Cheds and CryptoBoss have pointed to a “nice base break” in Dogecoin's price, saying it's “coming out.” DOGE is currently trading at $0.1336, up 18.82% in the past seven days.
On the other hand, a pseudo-anonymous crypto trading magnate warned his followers, “Don't FOMO here, pullbacks are undervalued.” The 10.6% drop to $0.1194, the price level seen seven days ago, would cost roughly $47.23 on long positions.
Dogecoin recently reached its highest open interest (OI) level — a measure of the total value of all outstanding or “unstable” Bitcoin futures contracts — for the month of July, jumping 19% to $647.19 million in four days. CoinGlass data.

The price increase follows recent speculation on whether Dogecoin could repeat its previous performance in May 2021, after Bitcoin's previous halving of $0.73 per year.
Dogecoin price rose to an all-time high of $0.73 on May 8, 2021, a year after the 2020 Bitcoin (BTC) halving.
If this pattern repeats, the price of Dogecoin will reach a new all-time high in April 2025. But technical analysis is difficult to apply to memecoins because their value is speculative.
