XRP Price Struggles to Gain Pace

XRP remains in a bearish zone, extending losses below $0.5200, similar to Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price fell below $0.5050 and $0.5000, even dipping below $0.4950 to test $0.4880, reaching a low of $0.4867.

Currently, XRP is attempting to recover losses, having moved above the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the downward wave from the $0.5233 swing high to the $0.4867 low. A break above the bearish trend line at $0.5150 has occurred, though the price still trades below $0.5220 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.

Resistance is anticipated near the $0.5200 level, with major resistance at $0.5220 or the 76.4% Fibonacci retracement level from the same downward wave. The next key resistance is at $0.5320.

XRP Price

If XRP moves above $0.5320, it may target $0.5500, with potential further increases toward $0.5550 or $0.5620. The next significant hurdle is at $0.5650.

Potential for Another Drop

If XRP fails to clear the $0.5220 resistance zone, another decline may commence. Initial support is near $0.5100, followed by major support at $0.5050.

A downside break and close below $0.5050 could lead to a continuation towards the $0.5000 support, with the next significant support around the $0.4880 zone.
