However, the XRP/USD pair failed to climb above $0.2650 and traded in a range. Finally, the bulls had an upper hand and the price rallied recently after forming a base near $0.2550. There was a sharp rise above the $0.2600 resistance and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
Moreover, the price broke the $0.2620 and $0.2650 resistance levels. It opened the doors for more gains and the price traded towards the $0.2700 level. A high was formed near $0.2691 and the price is currently retreating from highs. An immediate support is near the $0.2650 level. It coincides with the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent rally from the $0.2514 low to $0.2691 high.
On the downside, there are many supports near the $0.2620 and $0.2600 levels. Additionally, the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent rally from the $0.2514 low to $0.2691 high is near $0.2600. More importantly, there is a connecting bullish trend line forming with support near $0.2550 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.
