XRP (Ripple) and XLM (Stellar Lumens) can be seen dancing together in tune with Bitcoin’s price action. Current XRP and XLM prices are highly correlated to the BTC price action and in turn, correlated to each other as well as shown in the given chart below:
- BTC/USD is denoted by a white line
- XRP/USD is denoted by a blue line
- XLM/USD is denoted by a red line
Bitcoin’s price recovers after hitting a low of $6500 and currently it is trading at $7500 across major exchanges. XLM and XRP too recover after hitting key support areas. Both are under 9 days SMA and might try to do S/R flip of 21 days SMA (Simple Moving Average) as both have RSI (Relative Strength Index) of 31.54 and 39.48, respectively.
