XRP/USD 4-hour chart: XRP looks to break $0.60

On the 4-hour chart, we can see strong selling taking place so far today as bears regained strength after retracement yesterday.

Ripple price action has seen a steady decline over the past weeks leading to further lows tested yesterday. From the last significant swing high at $0.80, XRP/USD has lost 25 percent to the $0.60 current low.

This means that Ripple is set to reach the yearly low at $0.56soon. XRP could quickly break lower and target the $0.50 next major support in this scenario.

Considering Ripple price action development over the past week, we expect further downside to follow soon. Likely the $0.60 current low will be broken without much hesitation as another lower high was clearly set late yesterday.
