Ripple's technical picture
From the intraday point of view, XRP's upside is capped by SMA50 (4-hour) at $0.3857. This resistance is closely followed by the sloping trendline from November 18 high at $0.5269 (currently at $0.3870). Once this area is cleared, the upside may be extended towards the above-mentioned psychological $0.40, that needs to be broken to motivate bulls for a new assault. The next resistance is spotted at $0.4318 (SMA100, 4-hour).
Once firmly below $0.3800, XRP/USD may extend the downside towards $0.3700 and $0.33 followed by the recent low of $0.3237.
