XRP Price: Current Pattern
The Ripple price (XRP) is analyzed at 30-minute intervals from June 9 to June 12 in order to trace the current pattern.

The resistance lines of the triangle and channel are close to each other. Therefore, a breakout from the triangle could also indicate a breakout from the slightly longer term channel.
Will the price initiate an upward move? A look at technical indicators is required in order to find out.
Moving Averages
The XRP price is analyzed alongside the 10- and 20-day moving averages (MA) below.
On June 10, the 10-day MA crossed below the 20-day one. This is known as a bearish cross and often indicates that a downtrend has begun.
The XRP price is trading below both moving averages, facing very close resistance from the 10-day MA. Furthermore, the latter coincides with the resistance line of the descending channel.
The use of these indicators makes it unlikely that the price will break out from the channel.
However, it is possible that the price initiates a weak breakout from the short-term symmetrical triangle towards the resistance line of the channel.
Reversal Areas
One support and one resistance area are traced for XRP below. The closest support area is found near $0.36. If the Ripple price (XRP) continues to decrease at the rate predicted by the channel, it will reach this area around June 15. An analysis of technical indicators supports this possibility. The closest resistance area is found near $0.43. If the XRP price breaks out from the channel, it is likely to provide a reversal.Summary
To conclude, the Ripple price (XRP) made a high on May 30 and is currently trading inside a descending channel. Furthermore, it is trading inside a short-term symmetrical triangle. An analysis of technical indicators suggests that a downtrend has begun. The use of these indicators makes it likely that the XRP price will eventually reach the support area outlined above.
