XRP Price Eyes Could Gather Pace Toward $0.650
XRP price remained stable above the $0.5920 support zone. A base was formed, and the price recently started an upward move above $0.600. There was a clear move above the $0.6020 resistance zone, but it lagged momentum like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
There was a break above a key contracting triangle with resistance at $0.6050 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The pair is now testing the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $0.6321 swing high to the $0.5827 low.
It is now trading above $0.6050 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there are more upsides, the price could face resistance near the $0.6135 level. The first major resistance is near the $0.6200 level or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $0.6321 swing high to the $0.5827 low.
The next key resistance could be $0.6320. A clear move above the $0.6320 resistance might send the price toward the $0.6465 resistance. The next major resistance is near the $0.6500 level. Any more gains might send the price toward the $0.6750 resistance.
Another Pullback?
If XRP fails to clear the $0.6200 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $0.600 level. The next major support is at $0.5940 and the triangle’s trend line zone.
If there is a downside break and a close below the $0.5940 level, the price might continue to decline toward the $0.5820 support in the near term. The next major support sits at $0.5750.
