XRP and XLM Plummet on Technical Indicators Pointing to Further Weakness
XRP and XLM have declined sharply in recent trading sessions due to technical indicators pointing to further weakness. The cryptocurrencies are part of a broader market environment that is experiencing risk-off sentiment, with investors cautious following regulatory uncertainties and macroeconomic headwinds. Technical charts show that both assets have broken below key support levels, triggering stop-loss orders that accelerated the downward momentum.
For XRP, the next major support lies near $0.50, with a potential retest of the 200-day moving average around $0.48 if selling persists. On the upside, resistance now lies at $0.55, followed by $0.58, where the 50-day moving average previously provided support.
XLM is facing similar challenges, with support at $0.10 and $0.095. A break below these levels could open the door to further declines toward $0.08. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) readings for both assets are hovering near oversold territory, which could indicate a potential bounce.
