After witnessing good two-way trading, the price of Dogecoin fell on Friday as bears refused to relinquish control after a temporary reversal on Thursday.

After temporarily halting DOGE withdrawals following an upgrade announced by Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, Binance is back.
Conflicting reports have had a negative impact on people’s sentiment towards meme coins.
The daily chart of Dogecoin shows the asset’s price hovering near the bullish 21-day moving average at $0.2680, unable to find demand above immediate upside barriers located at the horizontal 100-day moving average, currently at $0.2588.
As long as the price remains below the second level, bears could maintain control of DOGE.
Meanwhile, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) has slightly declined below the 50.00 level, indicating that the bearish bias could persist in the short term.
DOGE sellers are currently targeting a strong support level at $0.25 to continue the decline. This level is a confluence point of the uptrend line support and the rising 50-day moving average.
Daily closing prices must remain below this key support level in order to retest the low of $0.2337 on Wednesday.
The low of $0.2272 on February 28 may provide some assistance to DOGE buyers, and below that level, the low of $0.2179 on February 27 will be their last line of defense.

On the other hand, acceptance above the 21-day moving average could provide additional strength for DOGE price recovery, needing to test the key level of $0.2848, the 200-day moving average.
Note that earlier this week, DOGE price failed to hold above the 200-day moving average, initiating a bearish trend for the token.
If the $0.30 moving average barrier is decisively broken, the $0.30 level will once again be in focus for the bulls.
