Moving Averages

At the time of writing, the XRP price was struggling to break out above the 200-period MA.

Previously, the MA provided support on May 31, June 1 and June 3. This is the second attempt at breaking out above the MA. A breakout would also indicate that the price would break out above the descending channel.

As stated in our June 5 analysis, due to the long-term bearish divergence that has occurred, we believe this to be unlikely.
