XRP Price Prediction: Coils Inside Flag Formation; A Breakout Above $0.80 On The Cards?

xrp5

XRP price trades lower on Tuesday after gaining some traction in the previous session. But the downside is capped near $$0.74, thus making it a reliable support level for traders. Sellers seem exhausted near this level. On the upside, buyers are not willing to cross the $0.80 upside hurdle.

  • XRP price fails to capitalize on the previous session’s gains.
  • A decisive close above $0.80 will see more gains in the price.
  • XRP continues to move in a short-term trading range of $70.0 and $80.0.

As of writing, XRP/USD is trading at $0.75, down 2.85% for the day. The 24-hour trading volume of the sixth-largest cryptocurrency stands at $2 billion. A decline in volume in correspondence to the price is a sign that the market might be looking for some bottom.
