A crypto expert has highlighted a recurring pattern on the Dogecoin (DOGE) price chart that led to its historical 2020 price rally. At the time, the DOGE price had skyrocketed by more than 26,000%, turning many early investors into millionaires in just a few months. Now, with the current chart structure repeating the same pattern, the analyst believes that Dogecoin may be preparing for another historic rally, this time to a $2 price target.
In one of his latest Dogecoin analyses on X, market analyst Crypto Patel stated that DOGE is currently sitting within the same strong accumulation zone from 2021 that sent its price to an all-time high. He marked this zone at around $0.10, noting that Dogecoin traded around this level before jumping over 26,834% to $0.74 in the previous bull run.
Crypto Patel noted that during that time, tweets from SpaceX and Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, had acted as a major catalyst to the meme coin’s upward price action. With renewed attention on Dogecoin, the analyst now believes that the fractal pattern from that past bull market is repeating in this cycle.
He noted that the bull run between 2020 and 2022 had moved through Waves 1 to 5, with significant price fluctuations before finally peaking in the last wave. In his accompanying chart, Crypto Patel showed that in Wave 1, Dogecoin experienced its first breakout before jumping again to a new high in Wave 2. This bull run continued, with Waves 3, 4, and 5 all showing price moving higher before the peak finally triggered a bearish downtrend.

After the second breakout, the price retested the former lows before experiencing another strong rally, marking Wave 3.
Dogecoin previously surged by over 26,000% in 2020, reaching an all-time high of $0.74.

Based on Crypto Patel’s analysis, the market is currently in Wave 4, following months of significant volatility and price declines. If history repeats, the analyst predicts Dogecoin could see another parabolic rally soon. His chart points to an upper price target around $2.0, representing a more than 2,767% rally from the current accumulation zone between $0.07 and $0.10.
While analysts maintain their bullish stance on Dogecoin, the meme coin is also seeing a surge in whale activity and price. Recent data shows that whales are accumulating Dogecoin in droves.

He noted that large-holder activity has also spiked to its highest level in six months, reflecting renewed interest and demand for the meme coin. At the same time, CoinMarketCap data reveals that the DOGE price has risen by more than 3.4% in the last 24 hours, fueled by Bitcoin’s recent reclaim of the $80,000 level.
