Liquidations in the SHIB market have totaled over $1.8 million in long positions since June 12, according to data provider Coinglass. In comparison, less than $500,000 in short positions were closed out during the same period. Over the past 24 hours, open interest—the total value of outstanding derivatives contracts—declined by 2.14% to $145.33 million. Meanwhile, long liquidations reached $244,000, surpassing the $57,000 in short liquidations.

The price of SHIB dropped 10% to $0.00001164 since June 12. However, the token continues to hold support above the $0.00001100 level, which analysts view as critical for the current market structure. The recent minor bounce from Tuesday’s low of $0.00001134 provides further evidence of possible stability, according to CoinDesk’s AI-driven insights.

Key technical signals offer a slightly optimistic view. Daily charts show a minor bullish divergence in the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator approaches a bullish crossover—a possible sign of upward momentum. Above-average trading volume at a closing price of $0.00001170 suggests strong buyer interest and support at current levels.

Short-term charts indicate oversold conditions in SHIB, which could prompt a technical rebound if the token holds above $0.00001168 support. Analysts point to the 23.60% Fibonacci retracement level at $0.00001390 as a potential target if momentum shifts in favor of buyers.
