ADAUSD weekly recap: Cardano fades from 0.1803 high, 2026-07-20
ADAUSD opened at 0.1656 and closed near 0.1661 after failing to hold above 0.1800, leaving positioning heavily long.
3 min readDOGEUSD closed Wednesday at $0.0939, down 6.4% from Monday's $0.1003 open. The week's range spans from $0.0907 to $0.1014, with the low coming during Tuesday's sharp selloff.
Tuesday's plunge from $0.1009 to $0.0926 set the tone for the week. The move lower aligns with broader crypto weakness as traditional markets await key data, with volume picking up to 7,869 contracts on the down day versus Monday's 6,250.
Friday's US Non-Farm Payrolls report (expected 85K vs 115K prior) headlines the remaining calendar. If jobs disappoint and Average Hourly Earnings (forecast 0.3% m/m) comes in soft, risk assets including DOGE could catch a bid. Strong data would likely pressure crypto further as rate cut hopes diminish. Thursday's ISM Services PMI (forecast 53.7) offers a preview of economic momentum.
Retail positioning shows 73% long versus 27% short as of Wednesday morning. Despite the week's selloff, traders remain overwhelmingly bullish, suggesting either conviction in a bounce or positions trapped from higher levels.
DOGEUSD is testing near the $0.094 area after bouncing from Tuesday's $0.0910 low. If price holds above the week's low at $0.0907 through the US data releases, Monday's high near $0.1014 comes back into view. A break below $0.0907 would open up further downside.
