XRP Price Trims Most Gains

The price even extended losses below $1.50. A low was formed at $1.4437, and the price is now consolidating losses. There was a minor upward move above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $1.6713 swing high to the $1.4437 low.

If there is a fresh recovery move, the price might face resistance near the $1.5150 level. The first major resistance is near the $1.520 level. A close above $1.520 could send the price to $1.550 and the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $1.6713 swing high to the $1.4437 low.

The next hurdle sits at $1.5840. A clear move above the $1.5840 resistance might send the price toward the $1.620 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $1.650 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $1.6750.
