On the daily chart for SHIB/USDT, the price of SHIB is looking to test the resistance level being maintained by the 9 exponential moving average (EMA). However, the MACD and RSI indicators signal a bearish force on the meme token’s price, as both technical indicators have recently raised bearish flags.
The latest SHIB whale activity may be whales giving off a slight hint of things to come for the token’s price. This is somewhat evident with data from Glassnode that shows whales are moving their SHIB out of exchanges.
Despite the whale activity, SHIB investors and holders have not yet come to the party, as data from Santiment shows that the 24-hour volume for SHIB has fallen. The data also showed that the number of active deposits has been lackluster at best. This suggests that whales are the only ones acting on the accumulation opportunity that they have identified.
