Daily Outlook
A look at the daily time-frame gives us two notions:
- There is a resistance area at 3350 satoshis.
- Yesterday’s candle is akin to the first candle of a reversal.
The price first reached the resistance area on July 17, before immediately increasing.
It did so again on July 30. Likewise, a decrease followed.
The candle for July 31 was a bearish engulfing one.
Besides the low volume, it has the characteristics of the first candle of a reversal.
A look at the moving averages (MA) gives us a possible reversal sign.
The 10- and 20-day MAs made a bullish cross on July 25.
The XRP price traded above both until July 31.
SponsoredThe recent decrease took the price right to the 20-day MA, which is possibly providing support.
It previously acted as resistance on July 17 and as support on July 14.
It would not be surprising if the price bounces from it.
Let’s go back to a shorter time-frame to see if that is likely.
Possible Reversal
In order to better visualize possible reversal areas, we have gone back to the hourly time-frame.
We can see that there are two support areas, found at 31000 and 3000 satoshis respectively.
Furthermore, we can see that there is some bullish divergence developing in the RSI.

While not present in longer time-frames, it gains significance since it is occurring very close to a support area.
Therefore, we would expect the XRP price to reach the support area at 3100 satoshis before beginning to increase.
While an immediate decrease towards 3000 satoshis is possible, it seems unlikely at the current time.
