Shiba Inu, the Ethereum-based token that powers the Shiba Inu ecosystem, was last trading around the $0.000009 level and within recent ranges on Friday, with cryptocurrency markets in wait-and-see mode ahead of the release of key US jobs data. The SHIB token is about 13% up versus the multi-month lows it printed just above $0.000008 in late November, having been bolstered by a broad recovery in the cryptocurrency market, though sentiment remains fragile in the wake of last month’s abrupt collapse of the FTX exchange.
SHIB Sees Over $100 Million in Trading Volume in 24 Hours
SHIB has seen trading volume across major cryptocurrency exchanges of over $125 million in the past 24 hours. That’s impressive, but, according to TradingView data sourced from Coinbase, doesn’t represent much of a deviation from the volume profile that SHIB has seen in recent weeks.
The lack of volume at the moment likely suggests that a pump in SHIB’s price isn’t coming anytime soon. Volume spikes typically happen at the same time as significant SHIB price movements, which often involve a quick pump followed by a sudden dump in prices.
Price Prediction – SHIB To Pump From Here?
SHIB’s latest rally from lows has seen it move back above its 21-Day Moving Average. SHIB bulls will be hoping that this means the cryptocurrency can soon push back above the $0.000010 level and challenge the next group of major moving averages between $0.000010-11.
However, even if SHIB is able to manage a bullish push, many technicians think that its prospects for further neat-term upside look limited. That’s because the cryptocurrency has been moving lower over the last few months within a bearish trend channel. The pattern has been a pump, a fall to fresh lows, and repeat. Should the pattern continue, it seems likely that after a push to the $0.000013 area, the next stop for SHIB might be a retest of the annual lows just above $0.000007.
