Ripple Holds above $0.23, Amidst Sleepy Market

Recently, Ripple broke above the resistance at $0.24 which re-energized the hopes of analysts. It was anticipated that a break above $0.24 will cause the coin to rally above $0.25. Suddenly, the price retraced and found support above $0.23.Similarly, On January 19, Ripple attained a high of $0.25, but selling pressure made the coin fall to the low of $0.22.

Certainly, this clearly explains that the coin lacks buyers at higher price levels. Nonetheless, the current status of Ripple is that it is making a downward move. If the selling pressure continues and breaks the law of $0.2300, the coin will drop to a low of $0.22. XRP will resume a range-bound movement if the support holds.
