Shiba Inu’s (SHIB) month-to-date price rally seems to be setting the stage for a double bottom pattern, a major bullish setup.
The joke cryptocurrency has risen 18% this month, its best performance since November, with prices gaining over 7% in the past 24 hours alone, according to CoinDesk data. The rally is consistent with the increased risk-taking in the crypto market triggered by bitcoin’s rally to lifetime highs above $118,000.
The upswing is characterized by robust trading volumes and and an increase in token burn, which took out a major chunk of supply out of circulation, according to CoinDesk’s AI research.

Double bottom bull reversal?
SHIB’s double-digit month-to-date gain follows a successful defence of the April low at around $0.00001005, hinting at the formation of a double bottom pattern on the daily chart.
The pattern comprises two nearly equal troughs separated by a recovery. A price rise through the trendline connecting the high point of the recovery is said to confirm the breakout and a bullish trend reversal.
In SHIB’s case, the so-called double bottom resistance is marked by the May high of $0.00001764. A move through that level would signal a major bull run.
