Ripple Price Trend

There was a lot of pressure on Ripple price as it failed to remain above the $2.00-2.10 support against the US Dollar. The price declined and it recently moved below the $1.80 support area. The decline was severe as the $1.70 support also failed to prevent declines. XRP kept declining and even traded as few points below the $1.50 level. It traded as low as 1.4839 and is currently correcting higher.

It has moved above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $2.0796 high to $1.4839 low. The current upside wave is corrective and it faces a lot of hurdles below $2.00. There is also a short-term bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1.7050 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The trend line resistance is near the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $2.0796 high to $1.4839 low. Therefore, it won’t be easy for buyers to break the $1.7000.1.7050 levels.

Above the mentioned $1.7050, the 100 hourly simple moving average is at $1.90. The stated $1.90 level coincides with the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $2.0796 high to $1.4839 low.
