Ripple Price Support

It seems like a decent recovery is triggered from the $0.1970 swing low in Ripple price against the US Dollar. The price has managed to move above a couple of important resistances such as $0.2000 and $0.2030. There was a push above the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $0.2238 high to $0.1900 low. It opened the doors for more gains, and the price settled above the 100 hourly simple moving average and $0.2050.

The best part was a break above yesterday’s highlighted two bearish trend lines with resistance at $0.2040 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The pair is now above the 50% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $0.2238 high to $0.1900 low. It might continue to gain pace toward $0.2100 in the near term. Any corrections or dips from the current levels might find support near $0.2040 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

Moreover, the broken trend lines could provide support near $0.2020 followed by $0.2000. Therefore, there are chances of more gains in XRP as long as the price is above the $0.2000 level.
