Dogecoin and Shiba Inu are having a tough time keeping up with the rest of the crypto market. Even though big investors are buying more of these coins, they're still losing value. For them to bounce back, they need to hit some important price points.
Things aren't looking great for meme coins right now. Traders are moving their money away from these risky investments, even though other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum are doing better. Shiba Inu did get a boost when Coinbase started offering futures contracts for it, but that hasn't helped its price much yet.
Looking at the numbers, Dogecoin dropped by 3. 3% and is stuck under a falling trendline. Shiba Inu is in a similar situation, with both coins showing signs of heavy selling. Until they can break out of their current slumps, it's going to be hard for them to gain any momentum.
Right now, Dogecoin is trading around $0. 1262, and Shiba Inu is struggling to stay above its recent lows. Both coins are moving together, which shows that traders are treating them as a single risky investment rather than looking at them individually.
If Dogecoin wants to turn things around, it needs to get back above $0. 13 with strong trading volume. Shiba Inu needs to do the same with its own key levels. Until then, any attempts to recover are likely to be met with more selling.
