In the grand theater of cryptocurrency, the price of XRP has embarked on a fresh descent, tumbling below the $2.3350 threshold. Yet, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, it now seeks to reclaim its dignity, aiming for a glorious ascent above the $2.40 mark.
- Alas, XRP has begun its descent anew, falling beneath the $2.40 barrier.
- Currently, it finds itself hovering around $2.350, entangled with the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average, as if caught in a web of indecision.
- A bearish trend line, like a dark cloud, looms with resistance at $2.3620 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data courtesy of Kraken, the oracle of crypto).
- Should it linger below the $2.420 resistance, another decline may be on the horizon, much to the chagrin of hopeful investors.
XRP’s Aspirations for an Upswing
In a twist of fate, XRP has dipped below the $2.420 zone, unlike its illustrious counterparts, Bitcoin and Ethereum, who seem to dance in the light. The price has ventured below the $2.40 and $2.3650 thresholds, testing the waters at the $2.3150 level.
With a low established at $2.3157, the price now endeavors to recover, having ascended past the $2.335 and $2.350 levels. It has even flirted with the 50% Fibonacci retracement level, a mystical point of balance from the $2.4068 swing high to the $2.3157 low.
Yet, the path is fraught with obstacles near the $2.3650 level, where the bearish trend line continues to cast its shadow. The price now dances around $2.35, entangled with the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average, as it contemplates its next move.
On the upside, resistance awaits at the $2.3650 level, with the first major hurdle looming at $2.3850, a point of significance near the 76.4% Fibonacci retracement level of the downward journey from the $2.4068 high to the $2.3157 low.
The next resistance lies at $2.420. A decisive move above this threshold could propel the price towards the $2.450 resistance. Should fortune favor the bold, the price might even flirt with the $2.50 mark or ascend to $2.550 in the near future. The ultimate challenge for the bulls may well be the $2.650 barrier.
Will There Be Another Downturn?
Should XRP falter in its quest to breach the $2.420 resistance zone, a fresh decline could be imminent. The initial support on this treacherous journey lies near the $2.3150 level, with the next significant support lurking around the $2.30 mark.
If the price were to break down and close below the $2.30 level, it might continue its descent towards the $2.220 support, with the next major support resting near the $2.20 zone.
