Ripple Price Trend
There was a slow and steady rise in Ripple price from the $1.9000 swing low against the US Dollar. The price was able to move back above the $2.00 hurdle and is currently placed nicely in the bullish zone. There was also a break above the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $2.50 high to $1.60 low. It has opened the doors for more gains and the price is likely to towards $2.50 in the near term.
On the downside, there is a crucial bullish trend line forming with support at $2.1000 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The pair is currently testing the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $1.82 low to $2.39 high. However, there is a chance of it testing the $2.10 support area in the near term. The mentioned support is around the 50% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $1.82 low to $2.39 high. Therefore, any major correction from the current levels toward $2.10 and $2.00 remains supported.
On the upside, a break above the $2.40 would open the doors for an acceleration towards the $2.50 level.
