The decline, however, prompted whales – investors with ample capital supply and ability to move markets – to go bargain hunting. These entities recently purchased 10.4 trillion SHIB tokens worth approximately $110 million, according to CoinDesk's AI insights.
Meanwhile, prices bounced 11% in the seven days to June 29, forming an "insider week" candle, signaling a pause in the downtrend.
The pattern occurs when the trading range (high- low) of a weekly candle is entirely contained within the range of the preceding weekly candle. It's a sign of indecision, with both buyers and sellers unwilling to lead the price action.
The occurrence of the said candlestick pattern after a prolonged downtrend, as in SHIB's case, is said to represent seller exhaustion and a potential for an upward price swing.
