The price is currently rising and it is trading above the $0.2320 level. There was a break above a key bullish flag pattern with resistance near $0.2345 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.
The pair is now testing the 50% Fib retracement level of the downside correction from the $0.2415 high to $0.2298 low. If ripple breaks the $0.2360 and $0.2370 resistance levels, it could start a fresh increase in the near term.
An immediate resistance is near the $0.2400 level, followed by the $0.2415 high. A successful break above the $0.2415 high could open the doors for a larger rally towards the $0.2500 resistance level in the near term.
Another Dip?
If ripple fails to climb above the $0.2360 and $0.2370 resistance levels, it could dip a few points. An initial support is near the $0.2340 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
The first key support is near the $0.2320 level, below which the price is likely to retest the $0.2300 support. Any further losses may perhaps put the bulls under a lot of pressure and the price could slide towards the $0.2220 level.
