4H Order Block Shows Exactly What’s Happening

Following the Bitcoin price sweep down below the $104,000 level over the weekend, the Dogecoin price was pushed back down below $0.2 once again. This move understandably shocked the community as the $0.2 has held for a long time. However, using the 4-hour order block (OB), a crypto analyst has explained what is going on with the Dogecoin price, why the decline happened, and where it could be headed next.

Dogecoin Price Experienced A Liquidity Sweep

Crypto analyst Smart Flows, on the TradingView website, pointed out an interesting development on the Dogecoin price chart. This showed a clear delineation for why the meme coin’s price dropped below the $0.2 psychological support level, and it came down to something as clean as a liquidity sweep.

The crypto analyst uses the 4-Hour order block on the Dogecoin price chart to explain this, starting just above the $0.22 price level. This saw a liquidity sweep through the Fair Value Gap (FVG) at the 0.5 Fibonacci level, breaking through the $0.2 support. This move, Smart Flows explains, was in no way emotional and was more of a ‘mechanical’ move, suggesting it was engineered to happen.

The outcome of this liquidity sweep is that there has now been a reset of sentiment surrounding the Dogecoin price, setting the stage for a potential reversal. If this is the case, then Dogecoin may be sitting on the cusp of what could be the next major rally above $0.2.

What To Expect Next From Here

According to the crypto analyst, Dogecoin is now sitting in a 4-Hour demand order block zone that is in confluence with the Fair Value Gap (FVG) above $0.2. This makes the $0.20928 level the first “key reaction point,” and the analyst points out two possibilities for the meme coin here: either the price continues to stall or consolidation begins at this level.

Basically, the Dogecoin price has to be able to beat the first major test at $0.209 before moving higher from here. This means it must complete a clean clearance of the FVG to grab liquidity above. After this, the real test begins at $0.22094, where the next major 4-Hour order block sits. The analyst explains that being able to clear the FVG will mean a continuation model is in play.

However, there is still the possibility that the Dogecoin price is rejected before it is able to clear the FVG above $0.2. In this case, it could signal a further downtrend for the altcoin. “If we reject early — that tells me distribution is starting, and I’ll prep for a secondary sweep below 0.18 to retest the deeper 4H OB near 0.16387,” the analyst concluded.
