The Hourly View for XRP

Last Updated March 16, 2021, 09:017 GMT

At the moment, Ripple’s price is up $0.01 (1.15%) from the hour prior. It’s been a feast for bears operating on an hourly timeframe, as Ripple has now gone down 4 of the past 5 hours. If you’re a trend trader, consider that the strongest clear trend on the hourly chart exists on the 50 hour timeframe. The moving averages on the hourly timeframe suggest a choppiness in price, as the 20, 50, 100 and 200 are all in a mixed alignment — meaning the trend across timeframes is inconsistent, indicating a potential opportunity for rangebound traders.

    I just finished an outline on Attorney Deaton’s Motion to Intervene in the SEC v. Ripple lawsuit on behalf of XRP holders, what it is, and why it is CRUCIAL. I will shoot the video when I get home and try and have it up on YouTube early this evening – stay tuned!

  • From XRP_OWL:

    I would legitimately (not lying at all) be a fucking millionaire right now if I would have diversified more and not held so much XRP. That being said I chose to diversify in November and STILL HOLD xrp by using research metrics similar. This should be a lesson for everyone.

  • From xrp_mami:

    Undervalued projects are my go 2. But I only buy what I know is going to last post regulations. My top 2 choices are $QNT & $XRP. Those will bring my financial freedom. $HBAR will provide the gains I need to get a massive head start in my savings. Find your plan and stick to it.
