A Dogecoin cup and handle pattern has returned to the chart, which could be pointing to another recovery trend. The chart pattern was highlighted by crypto analyst Melikatrader on a TradingView post, showing that there could be a reversal coming for Dogecoin soon. The analysis further explains how the formation came about and what this could mean for the meme coin’s price as another week of trading gets underway in the current bearish environment.
Understand The Dogecoin Macro Cup And Handle Pattern
Interestingly, the formation of the macro cup and handle pattern didn’t just start recently, as is usually the case. The crypto analyst explains that this formation had begun years ago, back in 2021, when the Dogecoin price had staged its legendary 36,000% rally that pushed it to new all-time highs.

It comes after what was perhaps the strongest pole and flag rally in the Dogecoin price history, pushing it to new heights in the process. However, this led to the formation of a multi-year-long cup and handle pattern, with the cup portion of the pattern being in formation since 2021. This large cup formation points to long-term accumulation for the Dogecoin price.
Now, according to the analyst, the cup has been completed, leaving the handle pattern that is now underway. As part of this, the Dogecoin price is now trading inside of a descending handle, and this is where the bullish part comes in. This is because a descending bullish handle has often appeared as a precursor to a bullish price breakout.
Why DOGE Price Could Hit $4
With the formation of the handle pattern already starting, it now remains for the completion of the bullish trend. As long as the Dogecoin price is able to break out of the descending handle, then it would set the tone for the upward reversal for the meme coin.

The major thing about this bullish handle is the fact that the breakout could last into multiple years. This multi-year expansion phase could see the continuous increase of the price as Dogecoin makes its way back toward its $0.74 all-time highs that were set back in 2021.
However, this would not be the end of the uptrend, as the crypto analyst explains that the completion of the cup and handle pattern puts the price much higher. The target puts the lower and more conservative end at $2.8. But a 2,400% expansion is still possible, pushing the price as high as $4 before the trend is complete.
