Despite this, SHIB struggled to sustain above it in April, as bulls and bears tussled for dominance. Shiba Inu was able to break through in late April, achieving several days of closes above the daily MA 50. The rise met resistance en route to $0.0000067 with Shiba Inu price falling afterwards. At the time of writing, SHIB was down 1.37% in the last 24 hours to $0.000005838, having fallen below the $0.000006 level. In the coming sessions, a return above the daily MA 50 will be watched as SHIB momentum indicators near oversold levels. #Shiba Inu (SHIB) News #Shiba Inu
