SHIB on verge of breakout: analyst

Crypto analyst Ali Martinez believes that the second largest meme cryptocurrency by market capitalization is primed for a price rebound soon. In a recently published X post, he posted a SHIB daily chart that shows the buy signal on the TD Sequential indicator.

While the meme crypto is changing hands at $0.00002076 as of this writing, Martinez believes that the asset is likely to see a massive price jump to the $0.00002800 level or near it. If successful, that would be an increase of roughly 35% for SHIB.

Over the past week, Shiba Inu has seen a decline that took it down 21.7% – from the $0.00002530 mark to $0.00001983 on Friday. By now, SHIB has printed a small rebound, rising by 4.7%, and it is changing hands at $0.00002078.
