Subjecting the asset to technical analysis, a renowned trader identified as Javon Marks recently predicted that SHIB could surge by 351%. According to his analysis, the asset has broken out of a falling wedge pattern which positions it for an upsurge to the $0.000081 resistance level. 

SHIB (Shiba Inu)’s price is starting to return with strength here while continuing to hold broken out of a recently set falling wedge pattern, the crypto analyst noted. Next level can be coming in and it could lead into a massive, >351% move to our larger $0.000081 target.

Similar to this position, analyst BigMike7335 (Michael) has also predicted that SHIB could remove another “zero” in this cycle. Supporting his thesis with a chart, Michael pointed out that SHIB is currently in the middle of a five-wave impulse structure. This implies that the asset could reach and breach the $0.0002479 since this is the lengthiest in the wave sequence.

Currently, the $0.00003747 price zone is reported to align with the Fibonacci 0.618 region. Securing this zone could push the price to $0.0002 in the medium term according to the analyst. For that to happen, the asset would first have to break out of the $0.000014 and $0.000018 range. According to IntoTheBlock data, 120,930 addresses purchased more than 550 trillion SHIB within this zone.
