Are dips limited in XRP?
If Ripple fails to clear the $0.505 resistance zone, it could trigger a downside correction. The first support on the downside is near the $0.491 zone and the trendline.
The next key support is near $0.474 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.4433 swing low to the $0.5047 high. If there is a downside break and a close below the $0.474 level, the price of XRP could add to losses. In the said case, the price might test the $0.450 support zone.
