On the hourly time frame, the price has broken the support level of $0.5219. If buyers cannot seize the initiative soon, the drop is likely to continue to the <a href="https://u.today/xrp-price-prediction-for-may-16" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$0.5150 zone</a> soon. <img src="https://u.today/sites/default/files/inline-images/xrp2_150.png">Image by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/XRPUSDT" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">TradingView</a>
On the bigger time frame, buyers need more time to accumulate energy for a further move. In this case, consolidation in the zone of $0.5150-$0.5250 is the more likely scenario for the next days. <img src="https://u.today/sites/default/files/inline-images/xrp3_145.png">Image by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/XRPUSDT" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">TradingView</a>
A slightly better situation is on the weekly chart. However, it is early to think about a fast reversal as the rate is far from the main levels. All in all, one can expect sideways trading between $0.51 and $0.54 until the end of the month.
XRP is trading at $0.5206 at press time.
