- Shiba Inu continued its downward trend, losing a key support zone in the process.
- Selling volume has been reduced, giving the bulls some hope of a recovery ahead.
Shiba Inu [SHIB] fell below a key demand zone in the $0.000024 region. Selling pressure prevailed despite an outflow of tokens from exchanges.
Liquidated long positions have also contributed to accelerating recent losses.
A range formation was possible, but if bitcoin [BTC]
fell below $59,000, Shiba Inu coin price could retrace to the next Fibonacci support level.
The balance of buying and selling was surprising

The RSI on the 12-hour chart was at 33 and was showing strong bearish momentum. He came within a stone’s throw of falling below 30, which would indicate oversold conditions. That alone will not guarantee a recovery.
The current trajectory of Bitcoin and the rest of the market could easily drag SHIB down another 19%. Fibonacci retracement levels (pale yellow) highlighted the next support level at $0.0000172.
In mid-April, the $0.0000212 level served as support. It could give another rebound in this new test. While the price trended lower in April, the OBV remained range-bound.
This suggested that the selling pressure was not overwhelming.
Therefore, as long as OBV does not lose the lower support level, SHIB bulls can expect a recovery from the two highlighted support levels.
