Ripple Price Analysis: XRP/USD must break this key supply area now or back to $0.20 territory a strong possibility

  • Ripple price in the latter stages of trading on Wednesday was seen up just shy of 2%, after giving back some of the early session advance.
  • XRP/USD has been attempting to breakdown a supply area, tracking from back end of $0.50 region to early $0.60 territory.

The Ripple price was seen trading with up with minor gains in the latter stages of trading on Wednesday, just shy of 2% in the session. It had started the session with real strong momentum, up some 5%, before running into the heavy near-term supply area.

XRP/USD price action is having another attempt to solidify the strong bull run seen last week, after taking a beating at the start of this trading week, as the market was hit with a large bout of profit taking, which wasn’t too surprising.

Near-term troublesome resistance is eyed at a supply zone which once again rejected the upside momentum in Wednesday’s session. It is seen tracking from around $0.57 up to $0.62. Should the bulls manage to tear through, it could open doors for the long upper wick seen on 21st September be filled. Support looks solid around $0.44, which if the price edges back towards this area, could see a double bottom formation produced.
