SHIB/USD traded at highs yesterday not seen since the 26th of July, but a reversal lower in early trading today has the Shiba coin barking within its lower range again.

SHIB/USD was introduced to the cryptocurrency trading world in May of this year by an anonymous creator. The Shiba coin, as it is referred to, is a definite creation geared towards fans of Dogecoin which also uses the allure of canines to stir a buzz of talk among potential influencers and fans of speculative cryptocurrencies which have little function except to serve as places to wager.

SHIB/COIN is still trading within the ‘infantile’ value range of its early days, but that has not stopped brokers from offering Shiba coin on their platforms. The potential exists clearly that if SHIB/USD is offered on more cryptocurrency trading exchanges its volumes will increase and so are the chances that it can find a larger audience of speculators who are attracted to its less than one cent values. Bullish gamblers may be tempted to buy at these lower values and simply hold onto the Shiba coin in their crypto wallets to see what will happen long-term.

Trading on SHIB/USD must, however, be treated seriously by speculators. The small amount of value within Shiba coin makes it EXTREMELY prone to potential volatility. Traders need to be mindful that fractional changes within the value of SHIB/COIN can cause massive changes in value to trading portfolios if large amounts of leverage are used unwisely. SHIB/USD, for the time being, should be treated with caution, even as it likely provides a strong dose of ‘fun’ to a trader’s day. In the end, the only thing that is likely to be remembered is the amount of profits or losses generated.

While SHIB/USD is new to the market, it has actually taken on a correlation to the broad cryptocurrency market. The ideas that Shiba coin’s value can be compared to the results which are demonstrated in DOGE/USD are not farfetched, though its results are certainly not guaranteed to produce mirror images. This weekend produced a swirl of speculative buying, followed by a reversal lower.

After starting its trading in the dramatic paradise of an exuberant cryptocurrency market, SHIB/USD has seen its overall value fall since May. The current value of SHIB/USD is within sight of its ‘all-time’ lows which happened in late June and came close to being touched on the 20th of July again. Speculators with a taste for adventure and the belief that sentiments are improving on the broad cryptocurrency market may believe in wagering on upside action if SHIB/USD can prove to be a worthwhile bet. Traders should try to use strict limit orders with SHIB/USD and pay attention to the exact values they are entering into their trading platforms because of the fractional prices used.

Dogecoin Short-Term Outlook:

Current Resistance: 0.00000649

Current Support: 0.00000627

High Target: 0.00000668

Low Target: 0.00000616
