Shiba Inu Price Forms Cup And Handle Pattern, What Does This Mean?

SHIBUSD 2022 08 15 20 38 52

Shiba Inu Price had registered substantial gain over the last week. In the last 24 hours however, the coin moved down on its chart. The meme-coin had broken past its cup and handle pattern that was being formed for the past several months. This had pointed towards signs of bullishness.

Despite a fall in Shiba Inu price, the technical outlook of the coin continued to remain positive at the time of writing. If Shiba Inu manages to remain above the $0.000015 level then the meme-coin could trade near the $0.000021 price mark.

This meant that Shiba Inu price could rally by almost 50% in the upcoming days. Buying strength remained strong for the meme-coin. There needs to remain considerable buying strength in the market for Shiba to maintain its uptrend.

This rally happened after Binance announced that it will add SHIB support on the payment cards which are issued in Europe. This has in turn increased Shiba Inu’s potential to help find new users in the crypto space.
