The technical analysis of the daily time frame shows that the Shiba Inu price has traded inside an ascending parallel channel since June 2023. The increase led to a high of $0.00000120 on December 17, 2023. 

Then, the channel’s resistance trend line rejected it, and the SHIB price has moved downward since.

At the start of the year, SHIB fell below the channel’s midline and then decreased below a short-term horizontal area on January 21, 2024. Shiba Inu trades in the channel’s lower portion. 

The daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) gives a bearish reading.

If the RSI reading is above 50 and the trend is upward, bulls still have an advantage, but if the reading is below 50, the opposite is true.

The RSI is falling and below 50, both signs of a bearish trend.

If the SHIB price continues falling, it can decrease by another 12% and reach the next closest support at $0.0000077. This is a horizontal support area and coincides with the support trend lines of the long- and short-term channel. 

Despite this bearish SHIB price prediction, reclaiming the channel’s midline can trigger a 10% increase to its resistance trend line at $0.0000095.
