XRP Price

The first major resistance is near the $2.80 level. The next resistance is $2.820. A clear move above the $2.820 resistance might send the price toward the $2.880 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.920 resistance or even $2.950 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $3.00.

 

Another Decline?

If XRP fails to clear the $2.750 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.650 level. The next major support is near the $2.60 level.

If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.60 level, the price might continue to decline toward the $2.550 support. The next major support sits near the $2.50 zone.
