XRP/USD Natural Drop!

Technically, the rate found resistance right above the ascending pitchfork's upper median line (uml) and beyond the weekly R2 (0.56). It has registered only false breakouts announcing exhausted buyers.

The 0.5097 historical level and the uptrend line represent downside obstacles. Testing and retesting these levels may announce a new bullish momentum.

False breakdowns below the immediate support levels may announce a new rally. This could represent the first long opportunity. In addition, a valid breakout through the upper median line (uml) validates a larger growth.
