The price of the popular meme-inspired cryptocurrencyShiba Inu (SHIB) has come to a point that can be described as nothing short of "now or never." According to the Bollinger Bands indicator, the Shiba Inu token has hit the median line, a fixation below which could result in a painful drop of more than 17% to the lower end of the range. Currently, the lower of the Bollinger Bands is at $0.00002326 per SHIB, while the token itself is currently quoted at $0.00002826.
Bollinger Bands, a popular technical analysis tool, measure market volatility and identify potential overbought or oversold conditions. The indicator consists of three lines: a moving average, an upper band and a lower band. These bands expand or contract based on price fluctuations, providing traders with a look into potential breakout or breakdown points.

That said, the opposite is also true, where an upside exit beyond the median, and holding there for however long a period of time, could open a path up for theShiba Inu token - as high as $0.0000333 per SHIB.
In other words, there are two options for the capacitated cryptocurrency in the short term - either a 17% drop or an 18.3% rise. The chips are now on the bears' side as this very median passes $0.0000283.
