XRP Struggles to Maintain $0.52 – Are Whales Exiting the Scene?

XRP has failed to sustain the recent uptrend, dropping by 1.2% in the last 24 hours.

The recent rally across the broader market because of the judge’s ruling on Grayscale’s litigation against the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has cooled, and prices are now retreating.

During the recent price rally, XRP climbed past the $0.54 level. However, bulls could not hold these prices, and a retracement threatens to push prices below $0.50.

XRP can potentially make more gains in the coming days if the broader crypto market recovers.

A recovery might be seen soon amid increased chances of the SEC approving a spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF).

XRP struggles to maintain $0.52

XRP was trading at $0.52 at the time of writing. The price action in the last 24 hours shows low volatility as the price traded in the $0.52 to $0.53 range.

After the recent rally, XRP was rejected severally at the $0.54 resistance level. Failure to break these levels has seen the price resume a steady decline.

If XRP breaks past $0.55, the price will likely rally toward $0.60, and more gains could see the token pushing past $0.625.

If XRP fails to hold levels above $0.50, bears might push the price lower to June lows and test the support zone at $0.435.

XRP shows bearish momentum as price retreats

XRP’s price chart shows a bearish momentum, with the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) being in the negative zone.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 37 shows sellers are driving the current price action. The RSI line shows indecisiveness between the sellers and the buyers.

XRP price is below the 50-day and 100-day Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), further showing bearish action.

The 200-day SMA places a support level at $0.503. Breaking below this price will see XRP trading at $0.42.

Whales Move XRP As Ripple Lawyer Remarks On Grayscale’s Win

Pro-XRP lawyer John Deaton has reacted to Grayscale’s win against the SEC. The lawyer opined that the favorable ruling was a win for the entire crypto industry.

It’s a massive win for #Bitcoin , BTC miners, @coinbase, and the Crypto industry in general. Does it mean the @Grayscale Spot ETF, along with the others, will be granted immediately? No. But a spot ETF is happening. The relevant question is whether it will in 2023? https://t.co/uUZUJ94dHz
