XRP Price Starts Recovery
XRP price extended losses below $2.25 and $2.20, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price dipped below the $2.150 and $2.120 levels.
A low was formed at $2.066, and the price recently started a recovery wave. There was a move above the $2.20 and $2.25 levels. The price climbed above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.552 swing high to the $2.066 low.
Besides, there was a break above a bearish trend line with resistance at $2.240 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The price is now trading above $2.250 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $2.40 level.

A clear move above the $2.480 resistance might send the price toward the $2.550 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.650 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $2.720.
Another Decline?
