The breakout past the local resistance region on 28 July was accompanied by heightened trading volume on the 4-hour price chart.
Realistic or not, here’s SHIB’s market cap in BTC’s terms
The 1-hour chart from Coinalyze showed that the Open Interest also saw a massive move higher, climbing from $40 million to $60 million and rising. This was a sign of bullish conviction from SHIB speculators.
Apart from demand, the breakout was also fueled by the short liquidations as seen on the liquidation chart. Therefore, buyers can use the $0.0000082 zone as a marker- a move below this region would signal short-term bearishness.
