Shiba inu
dropped sharply early Friday as President Donald Trump’s new tariffs weighed on market leader bitcoin and strengthened the U.S. dollar. The price chart still offers bullish hints.
SHIB crashed 6% in a brutal 24-hour selloff from July 31, 13:00 to August 1, 12:00, plummeting from $0.000013 to $0.000012. Prices hit their lowest since July 9, extending the downtrend from the July 21 highs near $0.00001600.
Key AI insights for the past 24 hours

- Breakout volume of 90.51 billion catalyzed a move above $0.000012 barrier.
What next?
Despite the recent slide, the technical outlook appears constructive, thanks July’s “inverted bullish hammer” candle.
The inverted hammer comprises a long upper wick, a small body and a largely absent lower wick. The shape indicates that while the bulls initially took prices higher, sellers eventually overpowered and pushed prices nearly back to the starting point of the period.
When the pattern appears after a notable downtrend, as in SHIB’s case, it indicates that the bulls are looking to reassert themselves in the market. Hence, the pattern represents an early sign of an impending bullish trend reversal higher.
SHIB traders, however, need to note that a drop below the July low of $0.00001108 would invalidate the bullish candlestick pattern.
