XRP Price Bounce Losing Steam: Will It Crash Below $1.40?

<a href="https://pricpr.com/xrp-usd/">XRP</a> Price Bounce Losing Steam, Failure Signals Could Emerge

The price of XRP has been rising, recently moving above $1.40 and $1.4150. It’s currently stabilizing, and could climb further if it breaks past $1.4650.

  • XRP price started a recovery wave above the $1.420 zone.
  • The price is now trading above $1.420 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.
  • There is a rising channel forming with support at $1.4190 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken).
  • The pair could continue to move up if it settles above $1.4650.

XRP Price Holds Support

Like Bitcoin and Ethereum, XRP’s price held steady above $1.3920 and then began to rise. It successfully broke through resistance levels at $1.4050 and $1.4120, moving into a positive trend for the short term.

As a crypto investor, I’ve been watching XRP, and it recently broke past a key resistance level – the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement. This meant it moved beyond a previous high point in its recent dip. However, sellers are now stepping in around the $1.45 mark, creating some pushback. On the hourly chart, it looks like XRP is forming a rising channel, with support currently around $1.4190, which could be a good buying opportunity if it dips.

The price has risen above $1.420 and is now trading above its 100-hour average. If the price continues to climb, it could encounter resistance around $1.450, or at the 50% retracement level based on the recent price swing between $1.510 and $1.3917.

The price is currently facing initial resistance around $1.4650. If the price breaks above this level, it could climb to $1.490, with the next challenge appearing at $1.50. A decisive move past $1.50 could lead to a test of $1.5180, and further gains might push the price towards $1.5320.

Another Drop?

If XRP doesn’t break past the $1.4650 resistance level, its price might start to fall. It could first find support around $1.42, and then potentially at $1.40.

If the price falls below $1.40, it could continue dropping to $1.3750. Further declines might find support around $1.3620, but if that level is breached, the price could fall to $1.350.
