XRP is holding gains above the $2.00 support zone. The bulls seem to be in control and might aim for a rally above the $2.50 resistance.
XRP Price Holds Key Support
After retesting the $2.00 support, XRP price started a consolidation phase. A base was formed and the price recovered some losses to move above the $2.20 resistance. It even cleared the $2.40 level and tested the $2.50 resistance.
A high was formed at $2.5085 and the price is now holding gains above $2.20, whereas Bitcoin and Ethereum saw bearish moves. There was a minor decline below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.00 swing low to the $2.5085 high.
