In a hopeful turn of events, Ripple’s XRP exhibits bullish signs against the US Dollar as it attempts to push past crucial resistance levels at $0.515 and $0.525. Currently trading above $0.500 and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours), the token seems well-positioned for further gains. Additionally, a connecting bullish trend line with support near $0.500 has formed on the 4-hour chart of the XRP/USD pair, data sourced from Kraken.
Significantly, the token’s upward momentum aligns with our last price prediction, where we discussed the potential for Ripple’s XRP to follow a path similar to Bitcoin and Ethereum. Indeed, the token has overcome the key resistance zone at $0.50 and has even managed to rise above the 50% Fibonacci retracement level from its previous swing high at $0.5491 to the swing low at $0.4590.
Moreover, should the token close above the $0.515 level, it may ignite a robust bullish rally. This level is closely followed by the 61.8% Fib retracement level, offering stiff resistance. The next notable resistance zone lies at $0.525; overcoming this could pave the way for a run toward the $0.550 barrier. Consequently, breaching the $0.550 mark could catapult the token toward further resistance levels at $0.585 and even $0.600.
However, a downside correction might ensue if XRP fails to clear the $0.515 resistance. The immediate support in such a scenario lies near the $0.500 zone and the connecting bullish trend line. The next significant support zone is at $0.490. Failing to maintain above this level could lead to extended losses, with a possible retest of the $0.458 support zone.
Regarding technical indicators, the 4-hours MACD suggests that the token is currently in a bullish zone, and the 4-hours RSI is above the 50 level, further bolstering the bullish case.
Hence, traders and investors should closely monitor these key support and resistance levels as the token attempts to solidify its bullish stance.
