Dogecoin wallet growth fails to catalyze price recovery

DOGE price could suffer further correction
Dogecoin price is likely to correct further as wallet growth fails to catalyze DOGE price recovery. DOGE price has been range bound between its January 29 high of $0.083 and February low of $0.077. At the time of writing, DOGE price is $0.078 on Binance.
DOGE price is likely to correct to support at $0.0759 before a bounce and a rally to its resistance at $0.087. This is likely since the two price levels have acted as support/resistance, consistently, since April 2023.
If bulls succeed in pushing DOGE price past its resistance at $0.087, the meme coin could target the 50% Fibonacci Retracement of the decline between December 11 and January 8, at $0.090.
The two green bars on the Awesome Oscillator (AO) and the green bars on the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) support the thesis of a recovery in DOGE price. Once the meme coin sweeps support at $0.0759 a recovery is likely.

A daily candlestick close below the February low of $0.077 could invalidate the thesis of price recovery and DOGE price could nosedive to $0.074 in its downward trend.
