How Bitcoin impacted Shiba Inu’s price, and what you can do about it

• Shiba Inu has a bearish short-term market structure.
• The lack of demand at a key support zone was concerning.

A recent AMBCrypto analysis of Shiba Inu [SHIB] noted that an 18% move higher was expected. Since then, the bullish momentum has slowed, but a support zone could hold off the sellers.

Bitcoin [BTC] traded at $63.7k at press time and could sink toward liquidity at $59.4k again. This could hurt the meme coin prices in the short term.

The encouraging sign for Shiba Inu bulls in the past two weeks was the $0.0000235 region (cyan) being flipped to support. However, the RSI was at 45 and showed bearish momentum had a slight advantage.

Similarly, the OBV was also unable to break the two key levels of the past two weeks. It suggested that buying and selling pressure were balanced, and neither side had a clear advantage.

Therefore, the BTC trend could be the deciding factor for SHIB in the coming week. To the north, the $0.00003 level is the short-term bullish target.
