XRP Maintains Its Range above $1.80

The XRP price is steadily declining below the moving average lines.

XRP long-term analysis: bearish

The cryptocurrency has paused its decline above the $1.81 level since November 21. Over the past month, XRP has traded within a range above the $1.80 support but below the moving average lines. Buyers have made several unsuccessful attempts to push the price above the 21-day SMA, resulting in further decline.

On December 19, the bears broke through the $1.80 support, but the bulls bought the dips. If the bears succeed in breaking below the current support level of $1.81, XRP will face renewed selling pressure. The asset would then fall and return to its October 10 price level of $1.58.

Meanwhile, the altcoin continues to trade within its range above the $1.80 support level.
