XRP Price Next Chapter Could Be A Strong Move To The Upside

XRP price started a steady increase above $1.1650. The price is now consolidating gains and might aim for more gains above the $1.20 zone.

The bulls even pumped the price toward the $1.1880 zone. A high was formed at $1.1926, and the price started a consolidation phase above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.0879 swing low to the $1.1926 high.

The price is now trading above $1.180 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. Besides, there is a bullish trend line forming with support at $0.140 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.

If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $1.1920 level. The first major resistance is near the $1.1950 level, above which the price could rise and test $1.20. A clear move above the $1.20 resistance might send the price toward the $1.2150 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $1.2220 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $1.2250.

If XRP fails to clear the $1.20 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1.1680 level. The next major support is near the $1.1550 level.

If there is a downside break and a close below the $1.1550 level, the price might continue to decline toward $1.1400, the trend line, and the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.0879 swing low to the $1.1926 high. The next major support sits near the $1.1280 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.1120. The main support could be $1.080.
