Why Ripple’s 10% surge met an immediate reversal?

Ripple price retreats to test $0.215 support, leaving $0.23 untested.
XRP and its pairs delisted on Bitbox exchange due to low and poor performance among other reasons.

Ripple reacted positively to the launch of a new futures contract on Binance Futures platform on December 6. The surge boosted XRP above $0.20, $0.21 and $0.22 resistance barriers. The more than 10% surge tested $0.25 but retreated below $0.22, leaving the $0.23 zone untested.

Meanwhile, XRP is trading at $0.2158 after losing 3.3% of its value on Tuesday. The existing trend is bearish with XRP testing the immediate support at $0.2150. The downtrend is reflected by the retreating RSI. However, as long as the 50 SMA on the 4-hour chart stays above the 100 SMA the bulls could be encouraged to increase their entries and push the price above $0.23.
