Also from the chart, it can be observed that XRP
is on a clear path towards forming a death cross in the next week or so. Such an event could in turn become an obvious signal for bears to keep selling the remittance coin in a bid to push it to lower levels.The indicators on the daily chart paint a similar scenario for XRP. The MACD is confirming a bearish environment with a reduced interest by buyers. The daily MFI and RSI are also pointing towards an ongoing correction for the remittance coin.
If the bearish scenario continues to play out for XRP, the remittance coin could find some support at the $0.50 price area that held during the crypto-wide sell-off of June 22nd.
