Cryptocurrency Prices, News and Technical Analysis
- Bitcoin (BTC) remains dominant, but chart shows little upward momentum.
- Ripple’s (XRP) recent rally may help build positive sentiment.
Ripple (XRP) and Litecoin (LTC) Charts - A Positive Light in a Gloomy Market?
The cryptocurrency market remains in a bear grip as a space but a couple of the larger tokens are showing signs of a rebound, if certain parameters are met.
Ripple’s recent surge has seen it break and close above the important support zone between $0.35 and $0.42 which remains key support if XRP is to push higher. Ripple is also trading above all three moving averages, on the four hour chart, and may well re-test the $0.59 to $0.62 level in the short-term. A break and close above here could see the recent $0.77 high regained.
