SHIB price faces upside resistance
Shiba Inu has modestly rebounded in the last two days, mirroring the slight recovery in the general crypto market. Despite this uptick, SHIB remains below key resistance levels, and sustained momentum might be necessary to break through to higher price levels.
Shiba Inu is currently locked in a range between its daily SMA 200 and 50, at $0.0000187 and $0.0000259, respectively.
On the upside, SHIB may need to break beyond $0.0000223 to maintain the current rebound, with stronger resistance at $0.000024. A break in either way above the daily SMAs 200 and 50 would define Shiba Inu's next move. A break over the daily SMA 50 would signal a Shiba Inu recovery, sending the price to $0.00003 or maybe $0.000033.
Shiba Inu is currently down 18.59% for December, marking its first monthly decline since September when it embarked on a rally. With just two days to the close of 2024, eyes are on where Shiba Inu price trends next.
