Ripple's technical picture

On the intraday charts, XRP's resistance is limited by $0.3170 with SMA200 (Simple Moving Average) 1-hour and the upper line of 1-hour Bollinger Band located on approach. Once it is out of the way, the upside is likely to gain traction with the next focus on $0.3180 (SMA50, 1-hour), followed by psychological $0.32. This barrier has been limiting XRO's recovery since the previous week.

On the downside, the initial support is created by $0.3130 the created by the middle line of the Bollinger Band on 1-hour chart. A sustainable move below this barrier will increase the selling pressure and push the price towards psychological $0.31 strengthened by the lower lines of Bollinger Bands on 1-hour and 4-hour charts.
