Shiba Inu: technical indicators and market challenges
Institutional investors with large positions pushed SHIB below $0.000018. Since the CMF is still negative at -0.22, this represents selling pressure from large holders. Meanwhile, the StochRSI revealed that SHIB was already entering an overbought mode due to its values fluctuating between 71 and 57.
