Ripple has been fluctuating between $0.43 and $0.50

Since March 16, the bulls have been retesting the $0.48 resistance level consistently. Unfortunately, XRP will be repelled after each retest. On March 16, XRP encountered a price spike as the altcoin rallied to $0.52 high.

However, within seconds, the bears pushed the price back to the range-bound zone. The price corrected upward to $0.48 high and resumed a range-bound movement. Presently, XRP is fluctuating in a tight range between $0.45 and $0.48. 

The altcoin upward move has been hampered by a lack of buyers at higher price levels. In the previous price action, XRP has been fluctuating between $0.43 and $0.50. On the upside, if the bulls break the $0.48 resistance, buyers are likely to be attracted and prices will move up to retest the $0.050 high. XRP will rise and reach the next target price level of $0.65. Conversely, if the bears have the upper hand and break the $0.43 support, XRP will further decline to $0.35 low.
