- Market sentiment around dogwifhat turned bullish in the last few days.
- Most metrics hinted at a continued price rise.
CoinMarketCap’s data revealed that the bears controlled dogwifhat’s [WIF] price last week as its value plummeted by over 9%. However, things took a U-turn in the last 24 hours, as dogwifhat’s price surged by more than 12%.
At the time of writing, WIF was trading at $1.59 with a market capitalization of over $1.5 billion, making it the 49th-largest crypto.
The good news was that the memecoin’s trading volume surged by 55% while its price increased. Generally, a rise in volume amidst a price increase acts as a foundation for a bull rally.
Apart from that, the price increase also had a positive impact on the memecoin’s social metrics. For example, its Weight Sentiment increased. This meant that bullish sentiment around dogwifhat increased.

Usually, prices tend to move the other way than the Funding Rate. Moreover, after a slight decline, WIF’s Open Interest increased, indicating that the chances of the bullish price trend continuing were high.

Coinglass’ data revealed yet another bullish signal. The memecoin’s long/short ratio registered an uptick. This meant that there are more long positions in the market than short positions — a bullish signal.
The technical indicator MACD suggested that the bulls and the bears were in a tussle with each other.
But the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicated that the bulls might be victorious as the graph moved northward. If the bulls continue to dominate, then investors might witness WIF first target $1.97.
A successful breakout above that level might allow WIF to reclaim $2.8. In the event of a jump above that mark, then dogwifhat might target $3.7 in the coming weeks.
