- SHIB’s price is below 50 and 200 day EMAs, signaling a strong downtrend with resistance at $0.00001750.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) has had a substantial price drop, declining by 2.39% in the past 24 hours. At press time, SHIB was trading at $0.00001522, an 8.78% decrease over the last week. SHIB remains 24.19% lower over the past month, indicating continued selling pressure.
Technical Indicators Show Bearish Sentiment
Technical indicators show a persistent bearish momentum for SHIB. The price is below both the 50 day and 200 day EMAs, confirming a strong downtrend. The 50 day EMA is also below the 200 day EMA, strengthening the negative sentiment.
If SHIB fails to break above the 50 day EMA, which is an immediate resistance at $0.00001750, further declines may occur. Support is at $0.00001500, a level where SHIB has been consolidating.
If this level breaks, the next possible downside target could be $0.00001000. However, a breakout above the 50 day EMA could push SHIB towards the 200 day EMA at $0.00002000, an important psychological resistance level.
RSI and MACD Indicate Weak Buying Interest
The RSI is at 36.046, indicating weak buying momentum. Although it remains above the oversold level of 30, it suggests that further downside movement is possible before a reversal.
An influential shift in sentiment is needed for a sustained price recovery. The MACD histogram shows diminishing bearish momentum, with shorter bars suggesting a possible shift in market movement.
However, the MACD line is below the signal line and the zero level, indicating that bearish conditions persist. Without a bullish crossover, SHIB may continue facing selling pressure in the near term.
Whale Activity Declines
According to analyst Ali, whale transactions on the SHIB network have dropped by 79% over the past three months. Historical trends indicate that large transactions often influence price movements, with spikes in whale activity aligning with major price swings.
