Shiba Inu (SHIB), the popular meme coin, is making headlines once again as an analyst predicts a potential 500% price surge. The analyst claims SHIB is on the cusp of breaking out of a bullish falling wedge pattern, a technical indicator often associated with significant price rallies.
This optimistic outlook stands in contrast to SHIB’s recent performance. The meme coin has undergone a substantial correction of over 70% since its February 2024 peak, which coincided with the approval of the Bitcoin spot ETF. Despite the downturn, SHIB remains the second-largest meme coin by market capitalization, boasting a valuation of over $7.85 billion.
A successful breakout from the bullish falling wedge pattern could propel SHIB’s price to $0.000081, according to the analyst. However, several factors temper this bullish sentiment. SHIB is currently trading below its 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), indicating a downtrend. Additionally, a weekly candle close above the $0.0000183 level is necessary to confirm a sustained uptrend.
While SHIB’s price has experienced a modest 1% increase in the past 24 hours, trading volume has declined by 50%, suggesting waning investor interest. However, a recent 13% increase in open interest, as reported by Coinglass, indicates growing investor curiosity.
As with any cryptocurrency, it’s essential to approach such predictions with caution. The market is highly volatile, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Investors should conduct thorough research and consider consulting with financial advisors before making investment decisions.
