XRP’s technical picture
Looking technically, the psychological $0.2700 now serves as a resistance level for XRP. We will need to see a sustainable move above this handle to mitigate the initial pressure and allow for the upside to gain traction with the next focus on $0.2740 strengthened by SMA50 (Simple Moving Average) on one-hour chart. The next barrier awaits the bulls on approach to $0.2800. This area is likely to limit the recovery and trigger a new wave of sell-offs.

This barrier will to slow down the sell-off; however, once it is out of the way, the downside pressure may intensify and push the price towards $0.2350 the lower boundary of the daily Bollinger Band.
