If the bulls protect the $3.050 support, the price could attempt another increase. On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $3.10 level. The first major resistance is near the $3.120 level. A clear move above the $3.120 resistance might send the price toward the $3.20 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $3.2320 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $3.250.
More Downside?
If XRP fails to clear the $3.10 resistance zone, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $3.050 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.9830 swing low to the $3.138 high. The next major support is near the $3.020 level.
If there is a downside break and a close below the $3.020 level, the price might continue to decline toward $2.980. The next major support sits near the $2.9150 zone, below which the price could gain bearish momentum.
