XRP bulls attempted to resume the uptrend but met a stiff barrier above $0.50. Ripple has since returned into the range as bulls await a fresh rally on XRP/USD beyond $0.5. At the time of writing, XRP is changing hands at $0.454, up by 1.71% in the last 24 hours and 6.73% on a 7-day basis.

XRP/USD Daily Chart: Ranging

XRP/USD Daily Chart

XRP rose to highs of $0.519 on March 4, but the bulls could not push the price past this level. This attracted profit-booking, the however excessive decline was curbed at the MA 50 ($0.4240). The RSI just at midline suggests possible consolidation. XRP could however break out of the range and start a trending move if the bulls shatter the resistance above $0.50. This may cause the XRP/USD pair to rally to $0.65.

On the contrary, the bears have not thrown in the towel yet and may try to sink XRP price below the MA 50 at $0.424. In this case, the support at the ascending trendline may act as a backstop for further declines. If this caves in, XRP may retest support at $0.34 coinciding with the MA 200.

XRP/USD 4-Hour Chart

As seen on the 4-hour chart, XRP is consolidating in a tight range between the MA 50 ($0.4426) and the MA 200 ($0.4841). The RSI trades flat at the midline as bulls need to crack the MA 200 cap on approach to $0.50. Above this, the resistance at $0.55 and $0.60 could test the bulls’ commitments. Alternatively, XRP sits atop robust support levels, which could likely make it a tough task for the sellers to extend their control.

Immediate support awaits at the MA 50 of $0.4426, below which the February 23 low at $0.3622 could be challenged. In any case, the support at the ascending trendline remains strong. The XRP/USD pair is only bullish while trading above the $0.50 mark, key resistance is found at the $0.55 and 0.65 levels.
