XRP Daily Chart – Source: Tradingview.com
XRP has dropped to the position of the third largest cryptocurrency by market cap after underperforming during bullish market rises last week.
The underperformance resulted in Ethereum overtaking it and reclaiming the position as the second largest cryptocurrency.
Technical patterns are not forming much better this week.
We have seen XRP continue to consolidate for a lot of the week with several Doji candles forming.
Doji candles are candles where the open and the close are around the same point and typically reflect uncertainty from traders.
Price has been forming lower highs since the end of 2018 forming a downward trend.
It has also been forming higher lows from the December low resulting in a descending triangle pattern.
With the downward trend line being significantly steeper, the pattern is more similar to a descending triangle pattern which is a bearish trend continuation pattern increasing the likelihood of bearish movements going forward.

Tron had been outperforming over the past few weeks but failed to stay above the resistance level at $0.028.
$0.028 is the point was a point of buyer liquidity during bearish declines in August.
After several attempts at rising above $0.028 and failing, the price has since started trading downwards.

The next key support level to monitor is $0.0233 which is just below where price is currently trading.
$0.0233 acted as a second point of buyer liquidity during the bearish declines in August and has since acted both as an important support and resistance level.
