Technical Indicators

A move through the $0.00001020 pivot to target the First Major Resistance Level at $0.00001040 and the Friday high of $0.00001058.

Broader market sentiment would need to improve to support a return to $0.00001010.

An extended rally should test the Second Major Resistance Level at $0.00001080 and resistance at $0.00001100. The Third Major Resistance Level sits at $0.0000115.

Failure to move through the pivot would leave the First Major Support Level at $0.0000098 in play. Barring an extended sell-off throughout the day, SHIB should avoid the Second Major Support Level at $0.0000095.

The Third Major Resistance Level sits at $0.0000088.

The EMAs and the 4-hourly candlestick chart (below) send a bearish signal. SHIB currently sits below the 100-day EMA at $0.00001010. This morning, the 50-day EMA narrowed to the 100-day EMA. The 50-day and the 100-day EMAs eased back from the 200-day EMA, price negative.

A move through the First Major Resistance Level at $0.0000104 would bring the 100-day EMA into play.
