XRP Price On Shaky Ground As A New Selloff Threatens

XRP price started a downside correction below the $1.1840 zone. The price is now showing bearish signs and might decline further below $1.10.

There was a break below a bullish trend line with support at $1.1620 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The price even traded below the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.050 swing low to the $1.1863 high.

The price is now trading below $1.160 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $1.1350 level. The first major resistance is near the $1.1420 level, above which the price could rise and test $1.150.

If XRP fails to clear the $1.150 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1.1020 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.050 swing low to the $1.1863 high.

The next major support is near the $1.1072 level. If there is a downside break and a close below the $1.1072 level, the price might continue to decline toward $1.1020. The next major support sits near the $1.10 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.080. Any more losses might call for a test of $1.050.
