JAVONMARKS, a crypto analyst, affirmed the sentiment by highlighting a long-term chart that illustrates an Inverse Head and Shoulders (IHS) pattern developing between 2021 and 2025. This formation, commonly linked to bullish reversals, features a left shoulder, a deeper low forming the head around mid-2023, and a right shoulder with a similar trough.
The current SHIB price of approximately $0.00001316 aligns with the chart data, supporting the potential for a trend reversal if the pattern is confirmed.
Additionally, a possible breakout above the neckline of this pattern could point to a target near $0.00002847. According to JAVONMARKS, the continuation of this trend could push the price further, though confirmation through sustained volume and market validation remains necessary.
