A sudden spike took XRP almost above $0.20, however, bulls were stopped quickly and are giving back almost all the gains. At this point, the 15-minute chart seems to have formed an extended ‘Bart’ pattern after dropping to $0.188 in a matter of minutes and trading sideways for the next few hours into the bull break.
