XRP Price Extends Losses<\/h2>\n

XRP price failed to stay above $1.4350 and extended its decline, like Bitcoin<\/a> and Ethereum<\/a>. The price declined below $1.4250 and $1.420 to enter a short-term bearish zone.<\/p>\n

The price even extended losses below $1.40. A low was formed at $1.3630, and the price is now consolidating losses well below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $1.5496 swing high to the $1.3630 low.<\/p>\n

The price is now trading below $1.420 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there is a fresh recovery move, the price might face resistance near the $1.3920 level. There is also a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1.3950 on the hourly chart of the XRP\/USD pair.<\/p>\n

The first major resistance is near the $1.40 level. The main resistance could be $1.4080. A close above $1.4080 could send the price to $1.4350. The next hurdle sits at $1.4550 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $1.5496 swing high to the $1.3630 low.<\/p>\n

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

A clear move above the $1.4550 resistance might send the price toward the $1.4750 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $1.50 resistance.<\/p>\n

More Downside?<\/h2>\n

If XRP fails to clear the $1.4550 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1.3650 level. The next major support is near the $1.350 level.<\/p>\n

If there is a downside break and a close below the $1.350 level, the price might continue to decline toward $1.3350. The next major support sits near the $1.3220 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.3120.<\/p>\n
