XRP price hovers near an inflection point
XRP price surged nearly 68% after falling from the swing highs of 1.01 made in late December. This upswing in the price pushed the token to test the $0.90 level. However, with the broader market structure, and profit-booking by investors, the XRP price retreated to the swing lows of $0.62 in February. Since then XRP has been trading in a short-term trading range of $0.70 and $0.90.
In addition to that, the XRP price remains pressured below the critical 200-day and 50-day EMAs (exponential moving average) since April 6. This makes the recovery of the asset more challenging.
Now, the price holds near the reliable support level of around $0.72. If it closes below $0.70 on the weekly basis would result in the piercing of the lower trading range.
The price could plunge toward the horizontal support zone at $0.62 followed by the lows of January 24 at $0.55.

As of publication time, XRP/USD is trading at $0.72, down 1.20% for the day.
