The meme coins in the market are facing a downward trajectory, returning to their previous lows. Among them, the dog-themed meme coin Shiba Inu (SHIB) is approaching the critical threshold.

Over the last 24 hours, the SHIB price recorded a loss of over 5.60%. The asset hit its peak and low of $0.00001702 and $0.0000157, respectively. This price momentum indicates a bear rally.

The technical indicators of the meme coin suggest the failed attempt of the asset to overcome the bearish trend.

Moreover, the asset is in oversold condition, as the daily relative strength index (RSI) stands at 36.77.

Furthermore, SHIB’s price oscillated within the 0.000016 range. Breaking past the mark might signal the bull cycle. The asset may test its initial resistance at 0.00001712, a crucial area for bulls. A rebound from this level allows the asset to recover, but losing it could push the price toward the $0.00001508 support zone.
