  • Shiba Inu price tests critical Ichimoku support levels.
  • Nearby resistance becomes increasingly weaker, enhancing the likelihood of a bull breakout.
  • Limited downside risks ahead.

Shiba Inu price action has outperformed a good chunk of the altcoin market. SHIBA has performed admirably despite experiencing intense selling pressure leading up to and after the US CPI data last Thursday. Most importantly, it has held onto the daily Tenkan-Sen as its primary support level.

Shiba Inu price could repeat the same breakout it experienced in October 2021

Shiba Inu price is positioning itself for one of the most sought-after buy entry setups within the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system: the Ideal Bullish Ichimoku Breakout. The Ideal Bullish Ichimoku Breakout was the entry setup that initiated the rally in October 2021. The rules for this setup are as follows:

  1. The current close is above the Tenkan-Sen and Kijun-Sen.
  2. The Tenkan-Sen is above the Kijun-Sen
    1. If the Tenkan-Sen is below the Kijun-Sen, then the Tenkan-Sen must be pointing up while the Kijun-Sen is flat or pointing down.
  3. The current close is above the Cloud (Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B).
  4. Future Senkou Span A is above Future Senkou Span B
    1. If Future Senkou Senkou Span A is below Future Senkou Span B, then Future Senkou Span A must be pointing up while Future Senkou Span B is pointing flat or pointing down.
  5. The Chikou Span is above the bodies of the candlesticks and in open space (open space is a condition where the Chikou Span won’t intercept the body of a candlestick over the next five to ten periods, horizontally).

All of the conditions above, save one, are fulfilled. The last puzzle piece is the current daily candlestick closing above the Ichimoku Cloud. For that to happen today, Shiba Inu price would need to close at $0.000040. However, by February 16, that threshold drops to $0.000032.

SHIBA/USDT Daily Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Chart

If bulls close Shiba Inu price above the Cloud, the next resistance zone would likely be the 100% Fibonacci expansion at $0.000045.

Downside risks for Shiba Inu price remain but are likely limited to the Kijun-Sen at $0.000026 or the lows of the prior range at $0.000021. A daily close at or below $0.000020 would invalidate any near-term bullish outlook.

Ripple price to close the week with a bang as next week will be crucial for another 20% profit

Ripple price is closing this week with very profitable numbers, even if a fade is ongoing. The fade occurred after bulls received a firm rejection at $0.50 and have been trading lower from that level since. If bulls can keep their hands on this momentum and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is not overbought, at least some 20% profit is being prepared for next week.
