Ripple’s XRP Price is Approaching Key Break

The decline found support near the $0.2500 zone. The Fib retracement level of the recent upward move from the $0.2463 low to $0.2644 high is also acting as a support. More importantly, there is a crucial bullish trend line forming with support near $0.2515 on the 4-hours chart of the XRP/USD pair.

On the upside, the price is clearly facing a huge resistance near $0.2600 and $0.2640. If there is a successful break above the $0.2640 resistance zone, the price might start a strong rally. The next major resistance could be near $0.2720, followed by $0.2800.
