Ripple’s XRP token has continued to suffer following another gruelling rejection from the daily 200 moving average.
The world’s fourth largest cryptocurrency by market cap is currently trading back below the $0.20 level of support turned resistance after plunging by 9.68% in the past eight days.
From a technical perspective XRP is bearish on both low and high time frames following three consecutive lower lows from February’s high of $0.34.
It will remain in a bearish posture until it breaks the daily 200MA at $0.21 to the upside while forming a higher low above $0.217.
The $0.181 level of support is the most likely stopping point for XRP over the coming week, although a drop in the price of Bitcoin could push it down to as far as $0.169.
The dreary chart will come as a surprise to those who have followed recent developments from the Ripple Foundation, with new remittance corridors being established at a rate of knots.
There was also news that Santander’s payment solution, One Pay FX, has plans to expand its use of Ripple payments to a further six countries.
But in spite of the positive news, the value of XRP remains stagnant which is commonly attributed to he Ripple Foundation’s over-the-counter token sales.
