XRP Price Dips Again<\/h2>\n

XRP price attempted a recovery wave above $2.020 but failed to continue higher, like Bitcoin<\/a> and Ethereum. The price started a fresh decline below $2.00 and $1.950.<\/p>\n

There was a move below the $1.920 support level. A low was formed at $1.8550, and the price is now showing bearish signs below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.047 swing high to the $1.8550 low.<\/p>\n

The price is now trading below $1.90 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average<\/a>. There is also a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1.980 on the hourly chart of the XRP\/USD pair.<\/p>\n

If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $1.90 level. The first major resistance is near the $1.920 level. A close above $1.920 could send the price to $1.950 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.047 swing high to the $1.8550 low.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The next hurdle sits at $1.980 and the trend line. A clear move above the $1.980 resistance might send the price toward the $2.050 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.120 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $2.150.<\/p>\n

More Losses?<\/h2>\n

If XRP fails to clear the $1.90 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1.8550 level. The next major support is near the $1.820 level.<\/p>\n

If there is a downside break and a close below the $1.820 level, the price might continue to decline toward $1.7650. The next major support sits near the $1.7320 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.7050.<\/p>\n
