XRP/USD Daily ChartXRP/USD is seeing a dip within its sideways range as most crypto assets fell during Friday’s trading session. Extension of recovery rally on Sept. 10 probed briefly above the $1.244 barrier but failed to close above the $1.055 level and generate a bullish continuation signal. XRP is marking the second day in red after retreating from a recently logged high of $1.13, thus hitting the $1.03 support near the MA 50 on Sept. 17.
Solid support at $1.065 (MA 50) and the $1.03 mark stays intact for now, with deeper pullback needed to hold above MA 200 ($0.93) to keep bullish near-term bias in play for fresh attempts higher. Conversely, Extended consolidation could be expected if the support near the MA 50 continues to hold, while near-term bullish signals would be generated on a close above the $1.13 and $1.24 levels. Beyond here, Bulls could subsequently aim for the $1.43 and $1.76 levels.
XRP/USD 4-Hour ChartXRP retreated below the 4-hour MA 50 following profit-taking seen across the markets. XRP however still trades within the range of $1.01-$1.17 (MA 200) and can continue to consolidate in the mentioned range for some more time before a break on either side. A broad range of $0.95-$1.24 continues to hold. Traders should watch price action near $1.03 as a break below this level can open doors for a fall towards $0.95.
The RSI is hovering beneath the 50 neutral levels, suggesting a slight advantage to the bears. On the contrary, a sustained rise above $1.08 (MA 50) is needed to take the price up towards $1.17 and to reinforce the neutral outlook. Price action near $1.17 remains critical and if the bulls persist, the XRP/USD pair may then be directed towards the $1.21 high ahead of the $1.41 barrier.
