Ripple Facing the Last Support Indicator, as it Heads For May’s Lows

Ripple facing the last indicators as it falls on the way down

The 200 daily SMA is giving up already now

It looked like cryptocurrencies were starting to bounce higher after the crash in May, but all attempts to reverse the course higher ended up being a dead cat bounce. Then they traded sideways  for about a month, suggesting that they were going to stabilize at last.

But, now we are seeing some increased bearish momentum again in the cryptomarket. Ripple coin (XRP) fell to $0.64-65 during the crash last month, where it formed a bottom and bounced from there to above $1.

But the 20 SMA (gray) has turned into resistance on the daily chart and this has been pushing the price in XRP/USD down on this timeframe. Yesterday we saw Ripple form a hammer candlestick, which is a bullish reversing signal, but there has been no bullish bounce.

Instead, the selloff is continuing today, and now Ripple coin is facing the lows we saw in May, as the 200 SMA (purple) tries to act as support at the bottom. Although, as we explained in our Ripple 2021 forecast, the decline seems broad-based across the crypto market, and the 200 SMA is giving up, so it seems like the bearish momentum will continue in the crypto market.
