Today, buyers are trying to keep the price of the Ripple (XRP) coin above the moving averages.

The price of XRP is recovering after its decline on February 3. The coin recovered above $2.20 and started its price movement below the moving average lines. 

XRP long-term analysis: bearish

On February 14, the bulls pushed the price above the moving averages but were stopped by the bears. Today, the bulls and bears are still fighting above the moving average lines to take over the price. If the buyers hold the price above the moving average lines, XRP will rise to the previous highs and is expected to reach the highs of $3.21 and $3.40. 

However, if XRP turns down from the moving average lines, it will re-enter a trading range and move below the average lines but above the $2.20 support, as Coinidol.com reports.
