On July 13th, the Ripple coin price experienced an impressive surge of 73% due to a partial victory in the SEC lawsuit, reaching a peak of $0.82. However, after this partial triumph, XRP struggled to keep up the upward momentum, resulting in a double top formation at the $0.82 level and a neckline at $0.70. A recent breakdown from this support triggered extended correction for this altcoin.

The declining XRP prices have formed a bearish wedge pattern on the daily chart. After several days of stability at $0.70, intense selling pressure at the resistance trendline triggered a significant drop in Ripple’s market value.
This downturn represents a 12% decrease over the past four days, with four successive bearish candles. This significant reduction in this altcoin price resulted in the break of the falling wedge pattern and the 38.20% Fibonacci level at $0.64.
At present, the XRP market price is having difficulty maintaining above the 50-day EMA. However, the increase in selling pressure suggests a continued downtrend to the 78.6% Fibonacci level at $0.53. Interestingly, a support zone aligns with this 61.80% fib level, which could increase the chances of a bullish resurgence.
