XRP Price Holds Key Support<\/h2>\n

XRP price started a decent upward move above $1.4350 and $1.4550, outperforming Bitcoin<\/a> and Ethereum<\/a>. The price gained pace for a clear move above the $1.480 resistance.<\/p>\n

A high was formed at $1.5074, and the price started a downside correction. There was a move below $1.4750 and $1.4650. The price dipped below the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.3785 swing low to the $1.5074 high.<\/p>\n

The price is now trading above $1.4450 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a bullish trend line forming with support at $1.4450 on the hourly chart of the XRP\/USD pair.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $1.4720 level. The first major resistance is near the $1.480 level, above which the price could rise and test $1.4880. A clear move above the $1.4880 resistance might send the price toward the $1.50 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $1.520 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $1.550.<\/p>\n

Downside Continuation?<\/h2>\n

If XRP fails to clear the $1.4720 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1.4450 level. The next major support is near the $1.4430 level and the trend line or the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.3785 swing low to the $1.5074 high.<\/p>\n

If there is a downside break and a close below the $1.4430 level, the price might continue to decline toward $1.4280. The next major support sits near the $1.4280 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.4120. Any more losses might call for a test of $1.4050.<\/p>\n
