There was a move below the $0.5750 level. Besides, there was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $0.5850 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The pair tested the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.5234 swing low to the $0.5989 high.

XRP Price

The first major resistance is near the $0.580 level. The next key resistance could be $0.5850. A clear move above the $0.5850 resistance might send the price toward the $0.5980 resistance. The next major resistance is near the $0.600 level. Any more gains might send the price toward the $0.6120 resistance or even $0.620 in the near term.

More Downsides?
