Ripple Holds above $0.31 Support as Buyers and Sellers Face Indecision

Ripple is in a downward correction after its rally above $0.36 high. Today, the altcoin is trading at $0.31 at the time of writing.

The upward and downward price movement has been marginal. There has been no significant price movement. It is a must for buyers to push the coin above $0.45 high. This will place the coin in the bullish trend zone to resume the upside momentum

Unlike the other altcoins, Ripple is yet to participate in the bull market. If the crypto had participated, the coin would have risen from $0.17 to $1.0. However, if the bulls fail to push XRP on the upside, there is a strong tendency for the coin to fall. If the current support at $0.29 is breached, Ripple will drop to $0. 23. Subsequently, the market will revisit the $0.17 low.
