Ripple price prediction: XRP loses 15% in 8 hours

Ripple quickly shed 15% but has recovered slightly from 40 cents to 42 cents. Meanwhile, the current bearish candles signify that price could hit 35-36 cents soon. In the last update, we expected a bullish impulse wave toward 80 cents. The 1st wave completed at 48 cents in mid-May while the 2nd wave was thought to have ended at 36 cents last week but an alternative look suggested to us that another bearish leg is very possible as the chart below shows.

A dip to 32 cents was possible if the 48 cents top still holds. Once a breakout happens above 48 cents, the 3rd wave is underway as we had in the first scenario. The bullish momentum couldn't push above 48 cents but the price came close. The chart below shows the new update.

The bullish trend from 28.5 cents could still continue if the price stays above 30 cents. A fast dip below 30 cents could lead to a retest of the 28.5 cents low and maybe a lower price. If the current dip is the 2nd wave, we should see a bounce off the 34-35 cents support zone followed by a strong break above the red wave (i)-to-(iii) red channel. The next bullish targets remain at 80 cents of price validates the chart above.
