The cryptocurrency XRP has recently been experiencing a volatile trend. XRP’s price failed to surpass the resistance point around $0.5570 and showed a new downward trend. Currently, XRP has fallen below $0.53 and has formed a new red candle. What levels should be expected for XRP from this point on?
XRP Price Drops Again
A descending trend line formed with resistance at $0.5320 was identified on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. This indicates a further downward trend in the price. This downward trend in XRP’s price is also consistent with a general decline in the broader cryptocurrency market. Notably, leading cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are also experiencing similar declines.
The current situation of XRP’s price presents notable volatility and risk for short-term investors. If the price falls below the support level of $0.5250, the downward trend may strengthen further, leading the price to lower levels. Currently, the $0.5250 level could be a sign for short-term recovery.
XRP‘s near-term developments may be shaped by surpassing the immediate resistance level of $0.5310. However, for a more robust recovery, it will need to hold above the main resistance level of $0.5350. Otherwise, the price is likely to decline again.
What Levels to Watch in a Bearish Scenario for XRP?
If the cryptocurrency XRP fails to surpass the $0.5350 resistance zone, it may continue to move downward. According to the current technical analysis, the first support level for the XRP/USD pair on the downside is located at $0.5250. However, a more prominent support point is seen at $0.5185.
If there is a break below this level and prices close below it, further downward momentum in XRP prices may be observed. In this scenario, prices may test the support level of $0.5065 in the near term.
Looking at technical indicators, the hourly MACD is gaining momentum in the bearish zone for XRP/USD. Similarly, the hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) indicator is also below the 50 level, indicating that selling pressure may continue.
Key support and resistance levels for XRP should also be considered. The main support levels are identified at $0.5250 and $0.5185, while the resistance levels are seen at $0.5350 and $0.5450.
