BNB, LTC, DOGE, and XRP price

Binance Coin (BNB) failed to stay above the USD 365 support level and started a downside correction. BNB is now trading near the USD 350 support. If there is a downside break below USD 350, the price could test the USD 335 level. Conversely, the price could break USD 365 and start a fresh increase.
Litecoin (LTC) struggled to test the USD 180 resistance and corrected lower. LTC is now testing the USD 165 support. If the bears remain in action there is a risk of a drop towards the USD 150 support. On the upside, the price might face sellers near the USD 172 level.

XRP price failed to stay above the USD 0.850 support and extended its decline. The price is now approaching the USD 0.820 support. If it fails to stay above USD 0.820, the next stop for the bears could be USD 0.780.
