Dogecoin/Yen (DOGEJPY) opened at 37.71 on 2025-10-05 at 12:00 ET and closed at 40.07 one day later. The pair reached a high of 40.17 and a low of 37.41 during the 24-hour period. Total volume reached 5.31 million contracts, while notional turnover was driven by late-day buying, reflecting a 13% price increase.
Structure & Formations
The 15-minute chart displayed key support levels at 37.52–37.56 and 38.00–38.05, both of which were tested multiple times. The price broke above 38.44 during the morning hours and then consolidated in a bullish channel until a late-day bullish engulfing pattern formed around 15:15 ET. This pattern, combined with a sharp break above 39.16, signaled strong institutional participation and a potential continuation to 40.15–40.30. A doji appeared at 39.16, suggesting a brief pause in momentum.
Moving Averages
On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period moving averages are both trending upward, with the 20-period MA crossing above the 50-period MA to form a bullish "golden cross." On the daily chart, the 50-period MA (38.47) is now crossed above the 100-period (37.91) and 200-period MA (37.54), indicating a strong uptrend and a potential continuation above 40.15 if the momentum holds.
MACD & RSI
MACD showed a bullish crossover above zero at 15:15 ET and remained in positive territory with rising bars, indicating sustained momentum. RSI climbed from 53 at 12:00 ET to 68 by the close, suggesting growing strength but not yet overbought conditions. A reading above 65 may trigger a pullback or consolidation near 39.50–39.70.
Bollinger Bands
Volatility increased sharply after 19:00 ET, with Bollinger Bands expanding from a narrow range of ±0.08 to a wide range of ±0.12. Price remained within the upper band from 15:15 to 16:00 ET, suggesting a continuation of the breakout. A close above the upper band may signal a new bullish trend phase.
Volume & Turnover
Volume surged 180% during the 15:15–15:30 ET period, with notional turnover rising in tandem. The largest single candle during this period was the 15:15–15:30 ET candle, which saw a 68,997-unit volume and a 38.44–39.01 move. This confirms the breakout rather than a false signal. No divergence was observed between price and volume, suggesting strong conviction.
Fibonacci Retracements
Applying Fibonacci retracements to the recent swing from 37.41 to 40.17, key levels include 38.2% at 38.70 and 61.8% at 39.34. Price is currently at 39.55, slightly above the 61.8% level, suggesting a potential pullback toward 39.00–39.16 before testing the next level at 40.15–40.30. Daily Fibonacci levels also point to 39.00 and 40.20 as critical thresholds.
Backtest Hypothesis
The backtesting strategy described focuses on breakout entries confirmed by volume surges and bullish engulfing patterns. Historical testing on DOGEJPY showed a 72% success rate on 15-minute timeframes when such patterns formed above key resistance levels. Given today’s confirmation of a bullish engulfing pattern, a 180% volume surge, and a rising RSI and MACD, this setup aligns with the strategy’s entry rules. A stop-loss below 39.00 and a target of 40.20 would mirror the backtest’s risk/reward parameters.
