XRP Price Maintains Key Floor, Market Awaits Next Major Move

XRP price started a downside correction from the $1.3750 zone. The price is now consolidating and might aim for another increase if it stays above the $1.3280 zone.

A high was formed at $1.3741, and the price started a downside correction. There was a move below $1.3450 and $1.3420. The price dipped below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.3001 swing low to the $1.3741 high.

The price is now trading above $1.350 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $1.3650 level. There is also a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1.3650 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.

The first major resistance is near the $1.3740 level, above which the price could rise and test $1.3880. A clear move above the $1.3880 resistance might send the price toward the $1.40 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $1.420 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $1.450.

If XRP fails to clear the $1.3740 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1.3370 level. The next major support is near the $1.3280 level and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.3001 swing low to the $1.3741 high.

If there is a downside break and a close below the $1.3280 level, the price might continue to decline toward $1.3175. The next major support sits near the $1.3120 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.3050. Any more losses might call for a test of $1.30.
