XRP Price Revisits Key Support At $2.20

It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $2.865 swing high to the $2.166 low.

There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2.50 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The next key resistance could be $2.550. A clear move above the $2.550 resistance might send the price toward the $2.650 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.70 resistance or even $2.850 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $3.00.

More Downsides?
