Shiba Inu investors have seen the meme coin gain nearly 150% measured from the bottom in mid-May to the top in mid-August.
At the time of writing, a chunk of these gains had been retraced over the past month.
The SHIB burn rate spiked last week but saw a massive slowdown over the past 24 hours. On the price charts, the bears have forced a decent drop and further losses could arrive over the next week.

The daily timeframe showed the market to take a bullish turn in July and especially August. In July the price formed higher lows, but August saw SHIB break decisively past the $0.00001313 resistance.
A few days after this sharp move upward, the same level was flipped back to resistance. At the time of writing, the most recent lows at $0.00001172 have been breached, and the market structure flipped to bearish on this higher timeframe.
Hence, traders can look for selling or shorting opportunities in the days to come.
The red box highlighted a bearish order block for SHIB. A move upward into this zone can be used to enter short positions.

This order block has also formed near the key resistance level at $0.00001313, making another rejection for SHIB likely.
