Ripple Price Analysis
There was a strong recovery wave above $0.3000 in ripple price against the US Dollar. The XRP/USD pair broke many important hurdles near $0.3220 and $0.3350 to move into a positive zone.
There was also a close above the $0.3220 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). The price even broke $0.3500, but it failed to continue higher above $0.3700. There were two attempts by the bulls to clear $0.3700, but they failed.
As a result, there was a bearish reaction below the $0.3200 and $0.3000 support levels. The bears took control and the price even declined below the $0.2800 support.
However, the bulls were active near the $0.2550 support zone and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). There is also a major bullish trend line forming with support near $0.2560 on the 4-hours chart of the XRP/USD pair. A low is formed near 0.2559 and the price is currently consolidating losses. An initial resistance is near the $0.2820.
It is close to the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $0.3671 swing high to $0.2559 low. The next major resistance on the upside is near the $0.3000 and $0.3120 levels.
The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $0.3671 swing high to $0.2559 low is also near $0.3100 to act as a hurdle. A close above $0.3100 could open the doors for a fresh increase. Conversely, the price might break the key $0.2550 support.
A close below the $0.2550 support and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours) could accelerate the current decline. The next major support on the downside is near the $0.2200 level.
