3 Major Crypto Assets Price Predictions: BTC, ETH, and XRP holders take profits, suggesting a potential short-term pullback.

Bitcoin (BTC) price is facing a pullback, dropping below $118,000 in the Asian afternoon session today (15th), as traders opted to take profits after a strong pump. Ethereum (ETH) and Ripple (XRP) followed Bitcoin's footsteps, pulling back nearly 2% and 3% respectively, breaking below the key levels of $3,000 and $3.

On-chain data shows that the net flow of Bitcoin to exchanges (the difference between the BTC flowing into and out of exchanges) is positive, reaching its highest level since February 25. The increase in inflows suggests that investors may be selling off Bitcoin, which could lead to a short-term pullback in ETH and XRP.

As of Tuesday when this article was written, the price of Bitcoin has fallen by 2%, trading below $118,000.

If Bitcoin continues to face a pullback, the downtrend may extend to the next daily support level of $111,968.

XRP Price Analysis

XRP continues its upward trend, having broken through the intraday resistance level of $2.72 last week, and on Monday re-tested the psychological barrier of $3. However, as of Tuesday when this article was written, the coin is facing a pullback, with the trading price falling below $2.88.

If XRP continues to pull back, it may extend its downtrend and retest its daily support level of $2.72.

The RSI on the daily chart is 76 and pointing towards the overbought level of 70, indicating that XRP is in an extremely overbought region. Additionally, the RSI continues to decline and has fallen below the overbought level of 70. In this case, it suggests that bullish momentum is weakening and may pave the way for further pullback in the short term.

On the contrary, if the daily closing price of XRP is above $3, it may continue its pump and retest the high of $3.40 from January 16.
