XRP price started a fresh increase above the $2.150 zone. The price is now consolidating above $2.20 and might clear the $2.250 resistance.
XRP price started a recovery wave above the $2.0650 and $2.10 resistance levels, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price traded above the $2.120 and $2.150 levels to start a decent increase.
The bulls even pushed the price toward $2.250 before the bears appeared. A high was formed at $2.2490 and the price started a downside correction. There was a move below the $2.2350 and $2.2220 support levels. The price even tested the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.060 swing low to the $2.2490 high.
However, the bulls protected the $2.20 support. The price is now trading above $2.220 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a connecting bullish trend line forming with support at $2.20 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.
On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.2450 level. The first major resistance is near the $2.250 level. The next resistance is $2.350. A clear move above the $2.350 resistance might send the price toward the $2.50 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.620 resistance or even $2.650 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $2.80.
If XRP fails to clear the $2.250 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.20 level and the trend line. The next major support is near the $2.150 level and the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.060 swing low to the $2.2490 high.
If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.150 level, the price might continue to decline toward the $2.120 support. The next major support sits near the $2.080 zone.
