XRP Struggles at Supply Zone with $2.50 Support in Sight
Crypto analyst Kamran Asghar highlighted that the XRP coin is presently testing the downward fair value gap, alternatively, the supply zone of $2.80 to $2.90. Asghar points out that this region can also serve as a potent opposition. A downward movement could follow failure to break the resistance at the price.
Analyst noted that a rejection in this area can result in a failure to the level of support at $2.50 to $2.60. He underlines the significance of this price level in the short-term market direction. The region has been used as backup in previous sessions. Traders would be waiting keenly to validate the breakout or reversal.
