XRP Price Movements and Technical Build Up Top XRP and Ripple Recent News XRP Market Analysis Using Omenics’ Sentscore

1. XRP Price Movements and Technical Build Up

Despite being the world’s third-largest cryptocurrency by market, XRP has stayed somewhat hesitant to participate in the crypto market rally in the last two months. XRP is currently trading above $0.40 with some modest daily trading volumes above $1.4 billion.

Over the last two weeks from today, XRP price swing has shown movements between $0.38 - $0.48 as seen in the chart above. The chart shows that despite the steady rise earlier, XRP lost momentum.

However, XRP has managed to stay above its crucial support levels of $0.40 despite the recent fall in its price. At press time, XRP is trading at a price of $0.40 with a market cap of $17.3 billion.

A number of comments from crypto traders say that strong technicals are building up for XRP and the cryptocurrency is poised to surge northwards to $0.50.

"Gordon Gekko" is, in fact, ultra-bullish on XRP to rise. Citing historical “daily golden” chart patterns in 2017 and XRP’s price surge to $4 levels post that, Gekko expects similar price shoot-up ahead in a few weeks. According to Gekko XRP’s price could hit anywhere between $7-10 in the next 3-6 weeks.

For you all that didn’t witness 2017 we hit the daily golden cross at .20 quickly over 3 weeks hit 3.50 golden cross 2019 at approx .40 a redo could mean a 7 dollar $xrp in 3 weeks with utility 10 bucks +++ — Sir Gordon Gekko (@gordongekko369) May 28, 2019
