    XRP can almost taste freedom, but still can’t break the chains

    XRP hovers near $2.2 as the lawsuit between Ripple and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reportedly might come to a dead end. The almost 4-year-long legal battle between the two might come to an end as the duo filed a motion to dissolve the injunction. On June 12, the joint motion was filed with Judge Analisa Toress requesting to release $125 million in escrow. “I believe there’s a 70% chance she grants the relief requested,” stated the former candidate John E Deaton.

    According to CoinMarketCap, XRP is trading at $2.2 after losing more than 0.06% during the last week. However, the market cap of XRP increased by 4.28% to 133B showing increased activity of traders.

    Since June 12, the token has been below the opening market price of $2.26. Although XRP tried to break above this threshold today, the bears were too strong for XRP. 

    Bollinger bands signal overbought conditions while RSI does not

    The 4-hour graph above shows that XRP has been moving inside a broadening wedge. As the token has rebounded off the trendline, it would be natural to expect the prices to move towards the upper trendline. However, the RSI reads a value of 65 as it heads towards the overbought region. Although the RSI is not yet overbought, however, the Bollinger bands signal that XRP is overbought. Therefore, there might be a retracement in the market, and XRP could look for support close to $2.18.

    Contrastingly, if the bulls muster the strength to rebound into the market and take control, XRP might be on a journey towards reaching the upper trendline at $2.34.
