It seems like the price is struggling to clear the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the main downward move from the $1.97 high to $0.95 swing low. A successful break above the $1.73 and $1.75 resistance levels could spark another rally.

The next key resistance is near the $1.80 level, above which the bulls are likely to aim a test of the $2.0 level in the coming sessions.

Dips Limited in XRP?

If ripple fails to clear the $1.75 resistance or $1.80, it could correct lower. An initial support on the downside is near the $1.52 level.

The next major support is near the $1.50 and $1.48 levels. If there is a downside break and close below the $1.48 level, the price could start a major downside correction. In the stated case, the price is likely to drop towards the $1.25 support.
