Ripple fell after two days of struggle below the $0.60 resistance

Ripple slumps down after failing to break the $0.60 resistance. The altcoin had earlier rebounded on December 16 to retest the previous highs but could not.

A daily candlestick on December 17 with a long wick has indicated strong selling pressure above the recent high. Ripple fell after two days of struggle below the $0.60 resistance. The coin has fallen to the support of the 50-day SMA. The crypto risks a further downward move if it breaks below the second moving average (50-day SMA). The coin will fall into the bearish trend zone. Alternatively, if the 50-day SMA support holds, there is a likelihood of uptrend resumption.

What is the next move for Ripple?

Ripple downward move has reached bearish exhaustion. The current downturn was a result of rejection at the $0.60 resistance. XRP corrected upward at the 61.8 % retracement level and plunged exactly at the 1.618 Fibonacci extension. The downtrend is likely to be over. The daily stochastic indicator has confirmed that XRP has fallen below the 20% range. In other words, it is in the oversold region, and buyers are expected to emerge.
