XRP price stays vigilant

XRP price has been attempting to get past the $0.381 resistance level since the initial breakdown on June 11, However, every time Ripple bulls pushed through to the aforementioned barrier, the sellers overwhelmed the move, undoing the bullish effort.

After four failed attempts to flip the $0.381 hurdle into a support floor, XRP price has once again sliced through this barrier in hopes of a successful move. If the buyers manage to maintain their buying pressure, there could be a run-up.

However, bulls need to stay on top as XRP price needs to wade through months of consolidation before reaching the $0.439 hurdle after a 15% upswing. Therefore, even after a quick flip of the $0.381 resistance level, Ripple buyers need to exercise caution.

In such a case, investors can expect XRP price to reach the $0.287 to $0.311 demand zone, which is likely to be a key zone in triggering the next leg up.
