A new technical analysis on TradingView suggests that Shiba Inu’s recent price movements may be echoing a familiar structure from earlier last year, raising the possibility of history repeating itself. The analyst examined Shiba Inu’s chart from November 2024 to the present and pointed out a sequence of patterns that also appeared between March and November 2024, patterns that preceded a significant rally.

The analysis outlines a clear path that could lead to a notable price surge towards $0.00003 if these price patterns continue to play out.

Pattern Analysis Suggests Shiba Inu May Be Ready For A Big Upside Move

The entire analysis is grounded on the idea that crypto markets are cyclical and exhibit recurring behaviors, crowd psychology, and recognizable chart patterns. Notably, this analysis uses four distinct pattern stages that played out on the Shiba Inu daily candlestick timeframe chart.

The TradingView analyst began by highlighting the completion of a falling wedge pattern in SHIB’s price chart, which is a classic bullish reversal setup. The analyst noted that this same structure played out from March 2024 to September 2024, acting as a precursor to a breakout in the weeks that followed. 

As of now, Shiba Inu seems to have moved past that initial wedge stage, making way for the second stage, which has been identified as a cup-and-handle pattern. This pattern, which was observed and confirmed recently, also mirrors the meme coin’s formation back in August 2024, when a brief consolidation phase eventually gave way to an upward move.

The analyst believes that the chart has now entered what they describe as “Stage 3,” a phase where a W-shaped formation may emerge. Historically, this pattern aligned with a powerful uptrend in September 2024 when SHIB experienced a multi-week rally.

Breakout Could Be Coming Next

Although pattern repetition isn’t guaranteed, the analyst’s comparison of current and past formations presents an interesting narrative that bullish traders will be interested in. If the final stage plays out as the analyst expects, Shiba Inu could soon form an inverted head-and-shoulders pattern, which is one of the strongest bullish reversal signals in technical analysis. This pattern was last spotted as stage 4 just before a rally that brought the Shiba Inu price above $0.00003 in December 2024.

Based on this four-stage progression, the trader is projecting a 91% rally from here, which could lift SHIB to $0.0000335. At the time of writing, SHIB is trading at $0.00001340, meaning the token is still in the early phase of this anticipated pattern sequence.

However, Shiba Inu’s short-term performance has recently shown weakness. Over the past 24 hours, the token has slipped by 7.3%, losing ground after a brief push above the 100-day moving average it had only recently reclaimed a week ago. This dip now sees Shiba Inu retesting that same moving average, which could either act as a springboard for the next upward move or become broken.
