XRP Price Analysis: Will It Break Through Resistance?

\n

XRP price has been struggling to regain momentum, testing the $0.5785 support level. While attempting a fresh climb, it faces hurdles near $0.620. The price dropped below the $0.6120 zone and is currently trading below $0.6250 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. A crucial bearish trend line with resistance at $0.6220 is forming on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data from Kraken).

\n

The pair could initiate a new upswing if it surpasses the $0.6220 and $0.6250 resistance levels.

XRP Price Eyes Fresh Increase

\n

Similar to Bitcoin and Ethereum, XRP price extended its decline below the $0.6320 level. It even dipped below the $0.6000 support zone, reaching a low at $0.5782 before consolidating losses. A minor rebound took the price above the $0.6000 level.

\n

The price climbed above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $0.6640 swing high to the $0.5782 low. It is now trading above $0.6250 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.

\n

On the upside, the price might encounter resistance near the $0.6220 level. A key bearish trend line with resistance at $0.6220 is also present on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. This level coincides with the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $0.6640 swing high to the $0.5782 low.

\n

The first major resistance lies near the $0.6250 level. The next key resistance could be $0.6320. A decisive break above the $0.6320 resistance might propel the price towards the $0.6500 resistance. Further gains could send the price towards the $0.6640 resistance or even $0.6800 in the near term.

\n

More Losses?

\n

If XRP fails to clear the $0.6250 resistance zone, it could continue its downward movement. Initial support on the downside lies near the $0.600 level. The next major support sits near the $0.5920 level. If there is a downside break and a close below the $0.5920 level, the price might continue to decline towards the $0.5780 support in the near term. The next major support lies near the $0.5650 zone.
