update (on the 4h again): June 23 we had a small bull flag begin that completely formed, and dumped invalidating the formation. This was gradual, brought us below major support (yellow), and eventually gave a sweet V shape recovery under the minor support (purple) by June 30 for the fake "portfolio rebalance rally", which immediately left us trading under once more, this time sideways.
Today we are left at the crossroads between the minor support (purple) and daily fractal/resistance (blue).
The blue resistance lines seem to be the strongest and we usually break through sideways as we can see today.
The fact that we have yet tested the blue support is reminder that XRP is healthy, but the macro conditions can be labeled the culprit (FED). However, these are strong conditions!
From here I confidently predict sideways movement because the yellow resistance/blue support are strong, barring a surprise fundamental event, but anything's possible! Remember XRP market cap is relatively small compared to other instruments like BTC, stocks, ect hence vulnerable to manipulation!
The next fractal play to look for IMO occurs towards the end of July where the yellow/blue lines cross.
Stay Blessed,
Cucho
