- XRP is back above $0.5369. The altcoin recovers while XRP holders keep their eyes peeled for the next steps from the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC). Though the SEC vs. Ripple lawsuit ended with an outcome that was considered a partial win for both parties; it remains to be seen whether the regulator will appeal the final ruling. An appeal could impact the legal clarity of XRP and likely hurt investor sentiment.
Chart of the day: SUI
SUI broke out of its multi-month downward trend with a close above $0.6167 on August 8. The DeFi token added 9% to its value on September 12. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator shows that SUI price trend has underlying positive momentum.
The green histogram bars above the neutral line support the bullish thesis. SUI could extend gains by 14.51% and target the June peak at $1.1700. SUI faces resistance in the Fair Value Gap (FVG) between $1.0439 and $1.0639.
SUI/USDT daily chart
If SUI sees a daily candlestick close below the September 11 low of $0.8663, it could invalidate the bullish thesis and the DeFi token could sweep liquidity at $0.8288. This is a key support level and the upper boundary of the FVG in the daily chart.
