Ripple Daily Chart

The daily chart still looks under some serious pressure.

Although the lower timeframes have shown a bullish breakout the psychological 0.25 would be the level to beat on the higher timeframe.

Longer term the channel high is the main target for the bulls as the hammer candle two days ago provided a bullish signal.
