The weekly RSI gives a bearish reading. The RSI is a momentum indicator traders use to evaluate whether a market is overbought or oversold and whether to accumulate or sell an asset.

Readings above 50 and an upward trend suggest that bulls still have an advantage, while readings below 50 indicate the opposite.

The RSI was rejected at 50 in August (red circle) and is now falling. These are both signs of a bearish trend.

SHIB Price Prediction: What Is the Next Move?

The analysis from the daily timeframe does not confirm the trend’s direction.

Since August 14, the SHIB price has decreased inside a descending parallel channel. More recently, the price bounced at the channel’s support line on September 11 (green icon).

While the meme coin reached the channel’s resistance line, it was rejected on October 2 and has fallen since. At the same time as the rejection, the RSI failed to move above 50 (red circle) and is now falling.

Therefore, the most likely future outlook for the cryptocurrency is an 11% drop to the channel’s support line at $0.0000065.

Despite this bearish SHIB price prediction, a breakout from the channel will mean that the correction is complete.

In that case, a 30% increase to the next resistance at $0.0000095 will be the most likely outlook for the future price.
