However, the price did not exceed the main resistance level of $ 0.3100. It also failed near the 76.4% fib retracement level of the downward move from the high of $ 0.3305 to the low of $ 0.2396. The price is currently falling but there is a high chance it will rise again above $ 0.3000.

Fresh immersion in XRP?
If the ripple does not fall back above $ 0.3000, it can be corrected lower. Initial support is near the USD 0.2800 level and the SMA of 100 (H4).
