- Ripple price commences consolidation above $0.2100 but the upside is limited under 23.6% Fibo and $0.2200 respectively.
- Stability and calm are expected on the market with XRP/USD bulls taking a breather to gather strength to attack seller congestion zones.
The daily chart for XRP/USD shows the price trading above $0.2100 following a recovery from the recent dip to $0.1982. Unfortunately, the immediate upside is capped by the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the last drop from $0.3470 to a low around $0.1751. The selling pressure at this level has intimidated the buyers who still have eyes on the hurdle at $0.2200.
XRP/USD is also trading under the moving averages. The 50-day SMA has maintained position above the 200-day SMA, which could be interpreted as a bullish gesture despite the dumping experienced from the 2020 highs at $0.3470. The moving averages are currently in the line of action and would limit XRP/USD recovery in the coming days; with the 50 SMA currently at $0.2566 and the 200 SMA at $0.2508.
