Ripple's XRP settled above $0.1900. The third-largest digital asset has recovered after a sharp sell-off under $0.1800 during early Asian hours but the further upside seems to be limited at this stage as the price lost bullish momentum on approach to $0.1970.

XRP/US: technical picture
On the intraday charts, XRP/USD settled above 1-hour SMA50 at $0.1925. This technical level now serves as initial support. Once it is out of the way, the sell-off is likely to gain traction with the next focus on $0.1900 reinforced by 1-hour SMA100, and $0.1880 (1-hour SMA200). Considering the downward-looking RSI, the short-term retreat below $0.1900 barrier looks likely; however, in the long run, the critical support is created by 4-hour SMA200 at $0.1770 as it separates us from a deeper decline towards 23.6% Fibo retracement for the downside move from February 2020 high.
On the upside, a sustainable move above $0.1960-$0.1975 area is needed for the upside to gain traction. This zone includes the weekend's high. Once it is out of the way, psychological $0.2000 will come into view, followed by $0.2035, which is a 38.2% Fibo retracement for the above-said move, This area stopped the recovery on April 7-9.
