Key Highlights

  • Ripple price failed to gain pace and is currently trading below the $0.1900 level against the US Dollar.
  • Yesterday’s highlighted major bearish trend line with current resistance at $0.1900 on the hourly chart of XRP/USD (data source from Kraken) is still active.
  • The price is now below $0.1850 and the 100 hourly simple moving average, which is a bearish sign.

Ripple price is struggling to gain traction against the US Dollar and Bitcoin. XRP/USD might correct lower and retest the $0.1750 level in the near term.

Ripple Price Decline

There was a short-term top in place above $0.1950 in Ripple price against the US Dollar. The price started correcting lower after trading as high as $0.1969. Initially, there was a break of the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $0.1500 low to $0.1969 high. It has opened the doors for more losses below $0.1900. The price recently broke an important support near $0.1850 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

On the upside, yesterday’s highlighted major bearish trend line with current resistance at $0.1900 on the hourly chart of XRP/USD is acting as a strong barrier. On the downside, there is a connecting trend line with support at $0.1780. The $0.1780 level is the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $0.1500 low to $0.1969 high.
