Trader Notes: Crypto trader Javon Marks <a href="https://x.com/JavonTM1/status/1894469317825040558">believes</a> that the recent pullback doesn't alter Dogecoin's historical price cycles. 
He sees DOGE still in its third bull cycle, with a move beyond its all-time high of $0.73905—implying a 252% surge from current levels.
Trader Tardigrade compares DOGE's price action to the 2017-2018 bull run, indicating it could be setting up for its next explosive move.

Statistics: Crypto chart analyst Ali Martinez <a href="https://x.com/ali_charts/status/1894676276541051284">points</a> out that long-term DOGE holders are in denial, suggesting the holders may be refusing to accept that the meme coin is underperforming relative to other assets or that its long-term potential has diminished.
It implies that they are holding onto DOGE in expectations of a rebound as they dismiss negative news or fundamental concerns.
Martinez also pointed out that DOGE network activity has collapsed by 95%, plunging from 2.66 million active addresses in November 2024 to just 130,282 currently.

The company recently reported that it has 7.62 million shares sold short, which is 2.67% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>

Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.
