SHIB news: trades near session lows — downside momentum persists with oversold signals
Shiba Inu (SHIB) is currently priced at $0.0000078, having slipped by 4.17% on the day and remaining near the session’s low within a narrow $0.0000077 – $0.0000079 range. SHIB trades firmly below all major moving averages — MA-20 ($0.00000919), MA-50 ($0.00001010), and MA-200 ($0.00001229) — which highlights strong, broad-based selling pressure.

Leverage products and token burns drive shifting SHIB sentiment
Gemini has launched a regulated SHIB perpetual contract in Europe, offering up to 100x leverage and USDC settlement under Malta’s oversight and a MiFID II license. Weekly token burns remain an ongoing feature of the ecosystem, with around 32 million SHIB burned each week, signaling continued engagement by the SHIB community. Broader market sentiment is being shaped by evolving liquidity conditions, speculation, and institutional sector events, particularly in technology.
Bearish momentum and oversold readings constrain SHIB recovery
Technically, the asset’s position well below its MA-20, MA-50, and MA-200 reflects persistent downside momentum, with the Ichimoku Kijun at $0.00000913 acting as the nearest dynamic resistance and likely capping near-term advances. Momentum studies remain bearish: the MACD and ADX both signal a sell bias, and most oscillators — including the daily RSI and CCI — are deep in oversold territory. Stochastic RSI is also extremely low, which hints that a short-term bounce could emerge. However, the BBP stays negative, and the Awesome Oscillator underscores current seller dominance, while low intraday volatility points to continued pressure around day’s lows.
Limited upside as range trading dominates near-term outlook
Looking ahead, SHIB is expected to oscillate in a $0.00000715 to $0.00000813 range over the coming week, with less than a 20% probability of a significant upside move. The base scenario sees range-bound trading between support and resistance, with a bullish outlook dependent on a break above $0.00000913, possibly targeting the higher end of the band. Conversely, a drop below $0.00000715 would expose further downside risk. Overall, the technical and momentum signals point to a continuation of the bearish trend, with only limited, potentially brief rebounds unless underlying momentum visibly shifts.
Previously it was noted that momentum signals were weak, with indicators reflecting a prevailing bearish trend. Last time we reported that the expected range for the next 5 trading days was likely to be limited, suggesting a predominantly sideways or declining outlook.
