XRP Price Trends Downward

XRP was unable to surpass the $1.620 level and saw a dip akin to other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. It fell below the $1.60 and $1.550 thresholds, marking a move into negative territory.

The price even dipped past the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level from a low of $1.3475 to a high of $1.6713. Additionally, the XRP/USD pair’s hourly chart shows a break beneath the bullish trend line with support at $1.4880.

The bulls are currently active above the $1.450 zone, with prices fluctuating around the 100-hour simple moving average at roughly $1.4620. If another upward movement occurs, resistance might be encountered near $1.50. The first major resistance can be noted around $1.510, and if the price rises above this, there could be a test of the $1.5450 level.

A decisive move over the $1.5450 resistance could propel the price towards the $1.580 mark. Continued gains might lead it to the $1.620 resistance level, with the next major challenge for buyers around $1.640.

Potential for Further Decline?

If XRP cannot break through the $1.510 resistance area, it might face another downturn. There’s downside support near $1.440, with the next essential support level being around $1.4240, which correlates with the 76.4% Fibonacci retracement from the low of $1.3475 to the high of $1.6713.

A breach below the $1.4240 level could lead to continued pressure, potentially dropping toward $1.40. Should the price fall below the $1.360 region, it might continue to slide to around $1.340.
