Ripple Battles Resistance $0.205 after Flexing Strong Support above $0.195

Ripple upward move has gathered momentum as price broke the previous resistance and reached a high of $0.21. In the last 48 hours, the bulls were unable to break the $0.205 resistance.

Buyers took bold steps to reach the $0.21 high. Sellers were defending the recent high as the upward move was repelled. Consequently, the market dropped to $0.195 low. The price corrected upward to the previous high of $0.205. The coin has returned to the price level where it was 48 hours ago. 

Ripple is now trading below $0.205 resistance. At this level, buyers would want to repeat the price action that propels price to reach a high of $0.21. The fact is that each time a resistance level is retested the level becomes weaker. On the upside, a strong bounce above the current support will propel price to break the $0.205 and $0.21 resistance. The price will accelerate to reach the $0.235 overhead resistance. On the other hand, if the bulls fail to push above the $0.205 resistance, the market will drop to $0.185 low.
