Ripple Consolidates Above $0.37 as It Challenges the $0.39 Overhead Resistance
Ripple (XRP) price is trading in the bullish trend zone and above the moving average lines. The bottom line is that XRP will continue to rise as long as the price bars remain above the moving average lines. After rejecting the resistance at $0.39, XRP is fluctuating above the 21-day line SMA.
The bulls will repeatedly test the overhead resistance to overcome it. For example, if the bulls overcome the overhead resistance, XRP will rise to the high of $0.49 or the price level of $0.54. However, XRP risks a decline if the bears break below the moving average lines. That is, the altcoin will fall back to the previous low above $0.30. Meanwhile, the cryptocurrency is trading at $0.3765 as it fluctuates below the resistance zone.
