On Tuesday, the Labor Department released the inflation figures for March, which indicated that the consumer price index (CPI) rose 8.5% in the period — the highest such spike since 1981.

What Does The Chart Reveal?
Dogecoin’s chart contains an inside bar pattern which is leaning bearish as the cryptocurrency was trading lower before the pattern was formed. However, according to Benzinga’s Melanie Schaffer, there’s a possibility that DOGE develops a double inside bar on Wednesday to further consolidate the recent volatility.

Dogecoin-oriented YouTuber Matt Wallace asked on Twitter why Robinhood Markets Inc HOOD lied about not listing DOGE-rival Shiba Inu (SHIB) on Tuesday.
#Robinhood said they were going to stick with #Dogecoin and not add #SHIB… but they just added it anyway. Why lie?
