source-logo  coinidol.com 01 March 2022 10:50, UTC

The price of Ripple (XRP) is stuck below the 21-day moving average line as buyers try to keep the XRP price above the moving averages. If the buyers are successful, XRP would have risen to the previous lows.

Currently, the upward movement is stopped at the high of $0.80. The cryptocurrency will rise to retest or break through resistance at $0.90 and $1.00 once the initial resistance is overcome. XRP/USD will exit the downward correction if the bulls break the overriding resistance at $1.00. Today, XRP fell below the 21-day moving average line. This means that it will be forced to move between the moving average lines. The altcoin will develop a trend once the moving average lines are broken. In other words, buyers and sellers will reach equilibrium when XRP trades between the moving averages. The cryptocurrency is trading at $0.77 at the time of writing.
