Ripple Consolidates Above $0.62 as Bulls and Bears Reach Indecision

After the two rejections at the recent high, XRP retreated to the $0.62 support. However, as price consolidates above the current support, there is a tendency of a possible breakout or breakdown.

XRP will rise to the high at $0.90 if the bulls overcome the resistance at $0.70. On the other hand, the bears will push XRP to the previous low at $0.58 or $0.51. XRP/USD seems to have reached bearish exhaustion as the altcoin is regaining the previous low above $0.51. Currently, XRP is fluctuating in a tight range between $0.62 and $0.70. The altcoin will resume the trend if the range-bound levels are broken.
