XRP Price

The next resistance is $2.240 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $2.335 swing high to the $2.145 low. A clear move above the $2.240 resistance might send the price toward the $2.280 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.320 resistance or even $2.350 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $2.40.

More Losses?

If XRP fails to clear the $2.220 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.150 level. The next major support is near the $2.120 level.

If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.120 level, the price might continue to decline toward the $2.050 support. The next major support sits near the $2.020 zone.
