Presently, Ripple (XRP) is consolidating above $0.195 low after the recent uptrend. Initially, the cryptocurrency was range-bound between $0.175 and $0.18 for over a week. The price breaks the $0.18 resistance and retested the $0.19 high.
A pullback to $0.185 low causes XRP to rebound as price breaks the resistance of $0.19 to $0.21. The coin reached the overbought region at $0.21. Consequently, sellers emerged at the overbought region to push prices down. The price dropped to $0.195 low and corrected upward. XRP moved up to $0.205 high but was repelled.
The market is now consolidating between $0.195 and $0.205. During the range-bound movement, the bulls made three unsuccessful attempts to break the $0.205 resistance. The coin was repelled as the price dropped below $0.20 support. On the upside, XRP has the possibility of moving upward. A strong bounce above $0.195 will propel the price to break through the resistance at $0.20 and $0.205. The momentum will extend to retest the $0.21 resistance. However, if the price fails to break these levels, XRP will be compelled to its sideways move below $0.20 resistance.
