XRP’s technical picture
XRP/USD stays below DMA50 (currently at $0.4510). which is a bad signal for buyers. The coin needs to recover above $0.4500-$0.4510 area to mitigate the bearish pressure and get a chance for an extended recovery towards the next target at $0.477 (this is a congestion zone that stopped the upside since October 19).
Long-term Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains flat, while volatility is low again, which means that the drop down was a one-off event. This is confirmed by RSI on intraday charts, where the indicator recovered from an oversold territory and settled at a neutral position.
On the downside, a sustainable move under $0.4400 will attract more sellers to the market. Speculators will rush to adjust their positioning, which will lead to an extended decline towards Monday’s low at $0.4320 and possibly to $0.4200.
