Furthermore, XRP price remained pressured below the descending trend line from the highs of $1.34 as Ripple continued to mark lower high and lower low formation. The price is being trapped in between the 50 and 200 SMA, which acted as clear support and resistance for the pair.

A renewed buying pressure could cause XRP price will face immediate resistance at the bearish slopping line at $0.92. Next, market participants would take out the psychological $1.0 level.

On the flip side, the token could reverse the current direction toward the lower hurdle of $0.75 upon the change in the bullish sentiment. This also coincides with the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA).

Furthermore, if the selling pressure continues to enhance, XRP price could fall toward the pessimistic target of $0.55.

Technical indicators:

RSI: The Daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) trades at 60 with an upward bias supporting the bullish outlook for the pair.

MACD: The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) holds above the midline.
