SHIB trades at $0.00000589, up 1.73% today, and the upper trendline near $0.00000650 is about 10% away, but price first has to clear $0.00000600 and the late-September high near $0.00000625. Two rising trendlines, one along the lows since late July and one along the August high, have contained price since then, with the lower line now near $0.00000495.

Just under price, the 20-day EMA at $0.00000566 and the 200-day EMA at $0.00000565 sit almost on top of each other and form the first support zone, with the 50-day at $0.00000538 and the 100-day at $0.00000524 further down. MACD has slipped just under its signal line, 0.00000016 against 0.00000017, which suggests the momentum behind September’s push has flattened.

SHIB has closed October higher in four of the five completed years since 2021, with a median gain of 6.04%. The 167.46% average comes almost entirely from the 833.6% surge in 2021, so the median is the better guide, and October 2025 was the only loss at 15.2%.

September’s 13.5% gain compares with a September median of 0.83% and extended a run of green months that began in July. Applied to $0.00000589, the median October return implies about $0.00000625, the same area as the late-September high, though with 2.59% already booked this month it likely overstates the upside. It is a historical reference rather than a target.

He added that the altcoin total market cap’s monthly MACD has flipped bullish for the first time in 19 months, noting that alts rallied for months after the last two flips. He called the structure a bull pennant and said a break above its top would start the next move.

LuckSide, who says he has held SHIB, argued that its fundamentals set it apart from other meme coins:

• Exchange supply sits near 14% of circulating supply, which he said is less than half of what it was at the same point last cycle.
• Holder counts keep setting records, a trait he compares with Bitcoin and Ethereum.
• SHIB’s supply can only fall through burns, while he said Dogecoin’s keeps growing.

These are his own figures and the video does not source them. He also said the SEC has classed SHIB as a digital commodity, a claim the video does not source either.

The 30-day burn chart shows most days well under 20 million, with five spikes above 40 million and the three largest at roughly 68 million to 73 million, the latest around September 29. 

Because burns permanently remove tokens from circulation, the supply story LuckSide describes depends on those occasional large days more than on a steady daily rate.

SHIB holds the 20-day and 200-day EMAs near $0.00000565, closes a day above $0.00000600, then clears the late-September high near $0.00000625. That opens the upper trendline near $0.00000650, which climbs toward $0.00000670 by late October, with the monthly signals LuckSide Crypto flags as added support.

SHIB loses the EMA zone near $0.00000565 while MACD keeps slipping under its signal line, then closes below the 50-day EMA at $0.00000538. That would expose the 100-day EMA at $0.00000524 and the lower trendline near $0.00000495.
