At the time of writing, the Ripple price is changing hands at $0.24, up two percent against the USD but lagging ETH.

Although traders are optimistic, candlestick arrangement suggest weakness.

In the daily chart, prices are consolidating below the middle BB pointing to weakness. Also, despite the higher highs of last week and increasing momentum relative to the lower BB, yesterday’s bar was bearish, quashing buyers’ attempt to push for better prices.

Technically, and in line with Sep 2 and 3 losses, every high should be a selling opportunity with immediate targets at $0.17 and $0.20 support zone. In the immediate term, if there are gains reversing yesterdays and last week’s consolidation above the middle BB and $0.25, the first bull target will be $0.30 and $0.34.
