Ripple Falls and Breaks Sideways, May Slide to $0.22 Low

Yesterday, the selling pressure of Ripple persisted as bears pushed price to a low of $0.22800. Before this time, the crypto has been range-bound between $0.23 and $0.26 since September 3.

Buyers have made more than three unsuccessful attempts to break the $0.26 resistance. The bearish reaction has enabled sellers to break the current support at $0.23. 

There are indications that the current price fall may extend to a $0.22 low. Presently, the price is making an upward correction on the upside. In the same vein, if buyers can defend the current support and push the price upward, the range-bound movement will resume. However, if the selling pressure persists, the coin will fall and reach the oversold region of the market. By implication, buyers will emerge in the oversold region to push prices upward.
