Will Shiba Inu Override the September Jinx?
Traders are watching as crypto enters what is commonly referred to as "Rektember." Since 2013, September has been Bitcoin's worst-performing month on average, producing a loss of around 3% and only producing five positive monthly returns.
September has usually been a negative month for Shiba Inu, marking three out of four years in losses since 2022. September 2024 marked an exception, with Shiba Inu rising 26.97%.
A bull flag pattern hints at a little encouragement for the bulls, with short-term support and resistance now watched at $0.00000488 and $0.00000537.
