XRP price is holding the $0.500 support zone. The price is consolidating and aiming for a fresh increase while Bitcoin is trimming gains.

  • XRP price is eyeing a decent increase above the $0.5100 zone.
  • The price is now trading below $0.5095 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.
  • There is a new connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $0.5090 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken).
  • The pair could gain bullish momentum if it settles above the $0.5135 resistance zone.

XRP Price Eyes Upside Break

XRP price extended losses below the $0.5000 support zone. The price even declined below $0.4980 before the bulls emerged, but losses were limited compared to Bitcoin and Ethereum .

A low was formed at $0.4948 and the price started a fresh increase. There was a move above the $0.4985 and $0.500 resistance levels. It cleared the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $0.5137 swing high to the $0.4948 low.

The price is now trading below $0.5100 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $0.5065 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $0.5137 swing high to the $0.4948 low. The first major resistance is near the $0.5090 level.

The next key resistance could be $0.5135. A clear move above the $0.5135 resistance might send the price toward the $0.5200 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $0.5250 resistance or even $0.5265 in the near term. The next major hurdle might be $0.5350.

Another Decline?

If XRP fails to clear the $0.5090 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $0.500 level. The next major support is near the $0.4950 level.

If there is a downside break and a close below the $0.4950 level, the price might continue to decline toward the $0.4880 support in the near term. The next major support sits near the $0.4740 zone.
