XRP Price Trims Gains


XRP price remained supported and started a recovery wave above the $2.320 zone, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price was able to clear the $2.40 and $2.420 resistance levels.


The bulls were able to push the price above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward wave from the $2.580 swing high to the $2.354 low. The price even tested the $2.50 resistance. However, there was no upside continuation and the price reacted to the downside.


There was a break below a connecting bullish trend line with support at $2.430 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The price is now trading above $2.40 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.


On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.450 level. The first major resistance is near the $2.480 level. The next resistance is $2.50 or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward wave from the $2.580 swing high to the $2.354 low.


XRP Price

A clear move above the $2.50 resistance might send the price toward the $2.550 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.650 resistance or even $2.6650 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $2.80.
