Ripple Price (XRP): Technical Indicators

In the case of XRP, it preceded the decrease which created the descending channel. Yesterday we stated that:

The 10-day MA is on the verge of crossing below the 20-day one. This is known as a bearish cross and often indicates that a downtrend has begun.

Today, a bearish cross occurred. At the time of writing, the Ripple price (XRP) was trading below both moving averages. The combination of these indicators supports further price decreases. However, on June 6, the 100-day MA crossed above the 200-day one. This is an indication that an uptrend may have begun. However, this is a long-term indicator. Therefore, it is still likely that the price will continue to decrease in the short-term. However, it should eventually find support and begin an upward move.

One support and one resistance area is traced for XRP below. The closest support area is found near $0.34. If the Ripple price (XRP) continues to decrease at the rate predicted by the channel, it will reach this area around June 18. An analysis of technical indicators supports this possibility. The closest resistance area is found near $0.43. If the price breaks out from the channel, it is likely to provide a reversal.
