Ripple (XRP) Price Holding Crucial Support & Likely To Bounce Back

[Jating]

since bitcoin rise with a jump of more than 20 percent, indeed ripple hasn't followed bitcoin, i think when week end is like this when almost all altcoins experience ripple correction starting up ... hopefully up to 20 percent

Maybe because everyone is focus more on bitcoin, selling their altcoins including XRP to shift funds around the BTC market.

But XRP is holding as well, support is strong so I wouldn't be surprised to see the price climb again and move or a more bullish signals just like any other altcoins so far. But as far as hitting another all time high? I can't see it happening this year.

I think holding Ripple will a clever idea for investors who want a huge pumps in a very short time, recently XRP is having more dumps but after a long period, i guess it will soon rise back and maybe higher, so XRP is a great altcoin for investing when we can easily see its developement in just a very short time.

XRP is indeed good, because it has a very high market capitalization, XRP is only left behind by BTC and ETH,
it shows that XRP is indeed able to compete with the most famous coins in the whole world.

Ripple Price Analysis

This past week, there were decent gains in ripple price above the $0.3050 level against the US Dollar. The XRP/USD pair traded above the $0.3100 level, but it failed to gain strength above the $0.3120 resistance. As a result, there was a fresh decline below the $0.3080 and $0.3050 support levels. The price recently broke the $0.3000 support, and the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $0.2949 high to $0.3125 high. It opened the doors for a break below the $0.2950 support level.

The price is currently trading with a bearish angle and below the $0.2960 and $0.2950 supports. If it extends losses, the next stop for the bears could be $0.2907 and $0.2900. The 1.236 Fib extension level of the last wave from the $0.2949 high to $0.3125 high is also near the $0.2907. Below $0.2900, there could be a sharp drop towards the key support near $0.2850. The 1.618 Fib extension level of the last wave from the $0.2949 high to $0.3125 high near $0.2840 may also act as a support.

On the upside, there is a strong resistance forming near $0.3000 and the 100 hourly simple moving average. There is also a short term bearish trend line forming with resistance near $0.2980 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The pair needs to clear the trend line, the $0.3000 barrier, and the 100 hourly SMA to start a decent upward move. The next key resistance above the $0.3000 level is near the $0.3050 level.

Ripple is a risky investing in my opinion. Real circulating number is unknown and it can mint infinitive amount and most of the tokens held by the same company. And i choose not to trust this company regardless of what analysts say.

Yes, you are right, many think so. You can trade XRP, but very carefully!

yup probably a clever idea for all investors to make profits especially short term and on this current situation . But i don't believe it will stay stagnant for long time. Because it already made a pump despite of bearish along with ETH.  So surely soon it will rise back again IMO which is once some coin show a progress again especially bitcoin because mostly altcoin are following after.
