XRP price is struggling to recover above the $2.850 zone. The price is now moving lower and might start another decline below $2.750.
XRP price managed to stay above the $2.70 level and started a recovery wave, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price climbed above the $2.75 and $2.80 resistance levels.
However, the price seems to be struggling to settle above the $2.850 resistance zone. Recently, there was a fresh bearish reaction below the $2.820 level. The price dipped below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.70 swing low to the $2.887 high.
The price is now trading below $2.820 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If the bulls protect the $2.780 support, the price could attempt another increase. On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.820 level. There is also a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2.8180 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.
The first major resistance is near the $2.850 level. A clear move above the $2.850 resistance might send the price toward the $2.880 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $3.00 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $3.050.
If XRP fails to clear the $2.820 resistance zone, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.780 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.70 swing low to the $2.887 high. The next major support is near the $2.744 level.
If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.744 level, the price might continue to decline toward $2.70. The next major support sits near the $2.650 zone, below which the price could gain bearish momentum.
