More importantly, this week’s highlighted key bearish trend line was breached with resistance near $0.3288 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The pair climbed sharply above the $0.3350 resistance level to move into a positive zone. Finally, there was a break above the $0.3400 level and the price traded as high as $0.3422. Recently, there was a minor downside correction below $0.3380 and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $0.3209 low to $0.3422 high. However, dips remain supported above the $0.3300 level. An initial support is at $0.3320.
The 50% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $0.3209 low to $0.3422 high is also near $0.3315 to act as a support. The next main support is near $0.3260 and the 100 hourly simple moving average. Therefore, if the price corrects lower further, it could find a strong support near the $0.3320 and $0.3300 levels.
