Ripple (XRP) Price Near $0.47; Moves Up For the 2nd Day In A Row

The Hourly View for XRP

Last Updated March 18, 2021, 04:017 GMT

Currently, Ripple’s price is down $0 (-0.34%) from the hour prior. Ripple has seen its price go down 4 out of the past 5 hours, thus creating some compelling opportunities for bears. If you’re a trend trader, consider that the strongest clear trend on the hourly chart exists on the 20 hour timeframe. The moving averages on the hourly timeframe suggest a choppiness in price, as the 20, 50, 100 and 200 are all in a mixed alignment — meaning the trend across timeframes is inconsistent, indicating a potential opportunity for rangebound traders.

Ripple Technical Analysis

The first thing we should note is that Ripple is now close to its 20 and 50 day averages, located at 0.45 and 0.46 respectively, and thus may be at a key juncture along those timeframes. Volatility for Ripple has been contracting over the past two weeks relative to volatility over the past month. Whether volatility reverts will be something to watch. The clearest trend exists on the 30 day timeframe, which shows price moving down over that time. For additional context, note that price has gone up 5 out of the past 10 days.

    It’s strange. I have had many regrets in life. But I realize that everything has been leading me up to this point. There are forces at work that wanted me to witness The Reset and be ready for #xrp. It was inevitable. Everything has been leading up to this point.

    If you’re an $XRP holder and aren’t following @attorneyjeremy, go do it now! His regular video updates keep me posted on any and all progress with the SEC case and they are actually very entertaining to watch at the same time.

Ripple took another legal jab at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that could tip the scales in its favor….A positive outcome from the new motion could benefit XRP price in the mid-to-short term scenario….However, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level at $0.43 seems to have done an excellent job preventing XRP price from dropping lower.
