XRP Price Dips To Support

The price even dipped below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.2702 swing low to the $1.4330 high. Besides, there is a new bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1.3880 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.
The bulls are now active above the $1.3320 zone. The price is now trading below $1.3750 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $1.370 level. The first major resistance is near the $1.3880 level, above which the price could rise and test $1.40.
A clear move above the $1.40 resistance might send the price toward the $1.4320 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $1.450 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $1.50.
Downside Break?
If XRP fails to clear the $1.3880 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1.3320 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.2702 swing low to the $1.4330 high. The next major support is near the $1.3085 level.
If there is a downside break and a close below the $1.3085 level, the price might continue to decline toward $1.2880. The next major support sits near the $1.2650 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.250.
