XRP hits a crucial crossroads

Ripple’s XRP is at a crucial juncture, testing the 50-day EMA, a support trendline connected by June 23 and August 3 lows, and the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level, which is drawn from the June 22 low of $1.90 and the July 18 peak of $3.66, at $2.99.

A decisive close below the support junction could extend the decline to the 50% retracement level at $2.78, with bears targeting the 100-day EMA at $2.72. 

The MACD and its signal line continue to decline, approaching the zero line. A wave of red histogram bars from the same line indicates rising bearish momentum. 

The RSI at 46 slopes downward, crossing below the midpoint line. This indicates increasing bearish momentum, with further room for correction. 

Looking up, XRP could bounce back from the support zone to retest the $3.34 resistance, last tested on Thursday.
