XRP, Ontology, FTX Token Price Analysis: 19 August

XRP and ONT both moved significantly in response to Bitcoin dipping to $11,600. FTX Token had already been experiencing appreciable price fluctuation. XRP looked precariously perched, trading near a significant level but seemed poised to drop. The longer XRP failed to reclaim its nearest support, the stronger the case became for XRP bears. Ontology had been recovering from the March crash and looked set to continue that trend on a longer time-frame, while indicating bearish pressure on a shorter time frame.

If $0.3 is defended, XRP can look toward next long term resistance at $0.38.

The fact that the RSI value is failing to remain near the 50 mark does not bode well for XRP. It can still recover if buying pressure mounts, but until that is the case the outlook would be bearish.

Volume Profile showed that significant trading activity occured at $0.294 and $0.3. If XRP failed to surmount these levels, the next significant level is at $0.24.

From $0.294 to $0.24, the profile is thin, indicating that the gathered momentum can cause the asset to go past the prices indicated (red arrow).
