The price of Ripple (XRP) is moving above the $0.75 support, with the bears retesting the $0.76 support while the bulls are buying the dips. After each retest, the candlesticks show outstanding long tails above the current support.
The long tails indicate that the $0.75 and $0.76 price levels are strong buying support. XRP/USD will fluctuate between the $0.75 and $1.00 price levels if the current support holds. The high at $1.00 is the overhead resistance where upside moves have already been staved off twice. If buyers are able to overcome the overhead resistance, XRP will rise to the high at $1.41. On the other hand, if the bears manage to break the support at $0.75, XRP will fall to the low at $0.51.
