One of Shiba Inu's most crucial points in its 2025 price cycle is currently upon us. The 200-day EMA, a crucial resistance level that has continuously capped bullish attempts since February, is finally being tested by SHIB following a protracted consolidation period and a painful multi-month downtrend.
SHIB may cause a significant trend reversal that changes the entire structure from bearish to bullish if it is able to decisively break above this barrier. SHIB is currently trading at approximately $0.00001441, pushing against the upper limits of a narrow trading range that has been developing for weeks. It has already surpassed the 50-day and 100-day EMAs, as well as all other significant short and midterm moving averages.
On its own, this alignment suggests significant underlying momentum. The 200 EMA is still the bulls' ultimate boss, though. A clear break above $0.00001451, which is the 200 EMA and horizontal resistance, would signal the beginning of a new bullish phase. In the short- to midterm it would not only render the previous lower-high structure invalid, but it would also pave the way for a retest of higher zones around $0.0000165 and $0.0000180.
The RSI is at 72, which indicates strong buying pressure but is also getting close to overbought territory, and volume has been rising steadily. Rallying prices typically extend significantly when SHIB breaks through the 200 EMA and enters this zone with volume support. Either a sharp continuation or another harsh rejection will be seen by traders at this point.
But in contrast to earlier failed rallies, the current setup appears to be essentially more promising. The altcoin market sentiment is stabilizing and whale activity has begun to gradually increase once more. To put it briefly, Shiba Inu is on the verge of a breakout that could completely alter its course for 2025.
It is not only possiblebut also likely that there will be a strong trend reversal if bulls successfully clear the 200 EMA. The rangebound prison SHIB has been confined to for months would be strengthened if this were to fail. The outcome will be determined by the next few candles.
