After breaking out of its falling wedge in early September, Shiba Inu’s [SHIB] bull run saw an expected reversal from the $0.0134-$0.0138 resistance range. (For brevity, SHIB prices are multiplied by 1,000 from here on).
Consequently, the sellers re-entered the market to propel a pull towards the lower band of the Bollinger Bands (BB) in a reversal pattern.
Going forward, a plausible U-turn from the confluence of resistances near the basis line (green) of the BB can hinder the recently-found buying pressure. At press time, SHIB was trading at $0.01133.

Post inflicting a concrete bullish volatile break in mid-August, SHIB sellers pulled the altcoin towards its sideways track in the $0.01217-$0.0134 range.
After oscillating in this range for nearly a month, the selling pressure kept mounting on its baseline support. The resultant decline shaped into a down-channel (yellow) that pulled SHIB below its 20/50 EMA alongside the basis line to paint a bearish picture.
However, the recent down-channel breakout tested the 50 EMA (cyan) and the $0.01217-resistance (previous support). Also, a bearish hammer candlestick reaffirmed the selling intentions to constrict the buying power in the $0.0115-$0.012 range.
With the near-term EMAs still looking south, sellers would look to sustain their momentum in the coming sessions. A decline below the immediate resistance can propel a retracement toward the $0.0104-$0.0108 range.
Any jump above the $0.01217-level would confirm the invalidation of the press time bearish bias. In these circumstances, buyers would look to test the upper band
