coins.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"152\" data-end=\"710\">At the time of writing, the altcoin trades at $0.00001606, rising a further 3% on the day.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_308307\"

data-end=\"710\">However, several market indicators suggest that the rally may be losing steam.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"152\" data-end=\"710\">Traders are increasingly placing bets against the token\u2019s price, and multiple trend signals now point to weakening bullish momentum.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"152\" data-end=\"710\">These developments could push SHIB into a period of consolidation or even spark a corrective move if current conditions persist.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\" data-start=\"712\" data-end=\"755\">BBTrend shows a decline in upward momentum<\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"757\" data-end=\"1215\">One of the most widely watched indicators for Shiba Inu\u2019s price movement is the Bollinger Band Trend (BBTrend), which measures volatility and trend strength.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"757\" data-end=\"1215\">While SHIB has continued to rise in the short term, the shrinking BBTrend suggests the buying pressure that fuelled its recent rally is beginning to fade.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1217\" data-end=\"1447\">A loss in BBTrend strength often precedes either a price consolidation phase or a downward retracement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1217\" data-end=\"1447\">If this pattern continues, SHIB could lose a portion of its recent gains and struggle to maintain its current valuation range.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\" data-start=\"1449\" data-end=\"1501\">Traders favour short positions as confidence dips<\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1879\">Further <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/currencies\/SHIB\">data from Coinglass<\/a> shows that traders are turning increasingly bearish.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1879\">Since May 6, SHIB\u2019s long\/short ratio has remained below 1.0, with the latest reading at 0.96.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1879\">This ratio compares the number of long positions (betting the price will rise) to short positions (betting it will fall).<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1879\">A value below 1.0 suggests that more traders are shorting SHIB than going long.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1881\" data-end=\"2083\">This growing short interest highlights a decline in market confidence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1881\" data-end=\"2083\">It suggests that investors believe SHIB may not sustain its recent upward trajectory and are positioning for a downside correction.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\" data-start=\"2085\" data-end=\"2135\">CMF indicator signals declining buying pressure<\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2137\" data-end=\"2385\">The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), another momentum indicator that tracks the flow of money in and out of an asset, also supports the bearish narrative.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2137\" data-end=\"2385\">SHIB\u2019s CMF has been falling steadily and is currently close to breaking below the neutral zero line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2387\" data-end=\"2667\">If the CMF dips below zero, it would indicate that selling pressure has overtaken buying pressure, often a precursor to a price decline.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2387\" data-end=\"2667\">Such a shift could push SHIB\u2019s price lower in the near term, particularly if combined with rising short interest and weakening BBTrend signals.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\" data-start=\"2669\" data-end=\"2727\">SHIB is at a crossroads between consolidation and breakout<\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2729\" data-end=\"2986\">Despite the bearish indicators, SHIB\u2019s price still holds above key support levels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2729\" data-end=\"2986\">If broader crypto market sentiment improves or meme coin demand returns, the token could still attempt another leg higher, with the next major resistance seen near $0.000019.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2988\" data-end=\"3258\">On the downside, if current momentum continues to weaken, SHIB could slide back toward $0.000010 \u2014 erasing much of last week\u2019s gains.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2988\" data-end=\"3258\">The direction will likely depend on how sentiment evolves in the coming days and whether short sellers continue to dominate order books.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr
