Ripple (XRP) Outperforms Crypto Markets as Price Stabilizes Above Historical Support

2019-7-16 03:00

Ripple has been able to once again find strong buying pressure in the upper-$0.20 region, which has historically been a region of strong support for the cryptocurrency. After touching this region, XRP climbed slightly higher, and is currently outperforming the markets.

Analysts are now torn on whether or not this price region marks a long-term floor that will allow the crypto to surge higher, or if it is simply a weakening support level that will ultimately lead to a significant drop lower.

Ripple (XRP) Plunges Over Past Few Weeks, But Nears a Critical Support Region

At the time of writing, Ripple is trading up nearly 2% at its current price of $0.32 and is currently outperforming the aggregated crypto markets.

Although XRP has been able to climb slightly today, its price action over a several week period has been incredibly bearish, as it has plummeted from its late-June highs of nearly $0.50 to its recent lows of just below $0.30.

This price action has closely mirrored that of Bitcoin’s, as BTC quickly surged to highs of $13,800 in late-June before subsequently plummeting to its recent lows of roughly $9,900.

Peter Brandt, a popular cryptocurrency analyst on Twitter, spoke about XRP’s price action a few days ago, explaining to his nearly 300k followers that Ripple could plummet as low as $0.16 if Bitcoin continues to face downwards pressure.

“If $BTC has intermediate correction then $XRP will go to $.1600,” he explained.

Is XRP Forming an Accumulation Base Around Current Prices?

Although it does seem as though Ripple is currently sitting on the edge of a precipice that could result in a serious drop, other analysts are noting that the price region that lies just below where it is currently trading at could mark a long-term accumulation base.

Credible Crypto, another popular analyst on Twitter, recently spoke about this possibility to his nearly 50k followers while replying to another analyst’s bearish assessment of the cryptocurrency.

“I don’t know about this one Don. $BTC was resting on a level that had 20 days of consolidation as support. $XRP is resting on a level that has nearly 7 months of consolidation as support. Looks more like we are building an accumulation base here,” he replied.

Although it remains unclear as to whether or not XRP will closely follow Bitcoin’s price action in the near-future, it is highly probable that it will take a significant influx of selling pressure for the crypto to drop below its long-established support level around $0.30.

Analyst: Bitcoin Likely to Drop into Lower-$4,000 Region Before Finding Significant Support

Although many investors and analysts alike viewed Bitcoin’s muted reaction to the recent Tether/Bitfinex controversy as a sign of improving fundamental strength, it may be too early to celebrate just yet, as one analyst believes that BTC may dip back into the lower-$4,000 region before finding any significant levels of support that allow it to.

Analyst: 4,000 is a Critical Level that Bitcoin Must Defend, Or Else Significant Losses Could be Imminent

Bitcoin (BTC) has now firmly planted itself in the low-$4,000 region and appears to be increasingly building relative levels of support at the ever-so-important psychological price of $4,000. Despite this, the cryptocurrency still faces resistance levels around $4,200, which may prove to be a difficult price level to break above.

Bitcoin: BTC Stabilizes After Sinking Below $3,500, Analysts Claim it is Likely to Drop Further

Following a long period of sideways trading, Bitcoin (BTC) has now broken down below its previously established support level around $3,500. Today’s drop appears to have allowed BTC to establish support in the $3,400 region, but further volatility could easily push it down towards $3,000, where the cryptocurrency has significant buying pressure.
