A well-known trader, Bonk Guy, has made a significant profit from Dogecoin and expects more gains. He shared on X that his Dogecoin trade is now up over $500,000, just a day after reporting a $252,000 profit. He started with a $100,000 investment but used leverage to amplify his potential returns.

What's Driving Dogecoin Higher?

Bonk Guy attributes Dogecoin's rise to several factors:

  • Pattern Recognition: Dogecoin often experiences long periods of calm followed by sudden jumps.
  • Short-Term Catalysts:
  • Possible Dogecoin ETF launch
  • Growing interest in the Dogecoin Asset Treasury
  • Market Momentum: The overall market trend remains strong, not slowing down.

Analyst Praise & Trading Strategy

Altcoin Sherpa, another analyst, praised Bonk Guy's trading approach, calling him a great example of how to trade meme coins with confidence and clarity.

Bonk Guy believes Dogecoin could reach $1 in a multi-step process:

  1. A strong move up from current levels.
  2. A period of consolidation where traders may become complacent.
  3. A "monster rally" lasting months, pushing Dogecoin above $1.

He advises traders to hold and avoid panic-selling during dips, calling it a "HODLer's market."

Short Squeeze Potential

Cryptoinsightuk, another analyst, noted:

  • High short interest on lower timeframes.
  • Rising open interest.
  • Negative funding premiums.
  • Increasing spot volume.

He believes a short squeeze is likely but questions whether this is just a temporary relief rally or the start of a full trend reversal. Many other altcoins are showing similar patterns.
