Ripple Trades Marginally as Bulls and Bears Struggle Above $1 Support
Nov 02, 2021 at 09:39 //
NewsThe price of Ripple (XRP) has traded marginally over the past four days. Initially, buyers intend to keep prices above the moving average. This will accelerate price action to retest or break the high at $1.20.
However, the selling pressure evident in the long wicks of the candlesticks indicates a rejection to the upside. Today, the price action is insignificant due to the presence of the doji candlesticks, the small candle bodies. These candlesticks dictate the price movement.
In the last four days, Ripple is fluctuating between the prices of $1.08 and $1.11. The market will resume its uptrend if the price breaks above the moving average and retests the $1.20 resistance level. A breakout will push the altcoin to retest the previous high of $1.40. However, Ripple will continue to trade in a narrow range unless the range is broken.
