XRP long term analysis: bullish

Now, the cryptocurrency has resumed its positive upward momentum. On a positive note, XRP is likely to return to its January 2018 price level, which was $3.30.

The price indicator predicts that the altcoin will rise but then reverse at the 1.272 Fibonacci extension or the high of $3.52. 

On the other hand, if XRP falls below the $3.00 resistance level, the altcoin will be forced to move in a range below the previous high but above the moving averages. XRP is now worth $2.43.

XRP indicator analysis

The price bars are still above the moving average lines even though the last high has been rejected. On the 4-hour chart, the price bars were previously trapped between the moving average lines, but are now above them. XRP is expected to move higher after breaking above the 21-day SMA.

Technical indicators:

Resistance Levels – $3.00 and $3.30

Support Levels – $2.00 and $1.70

What is the next direction for XRP?

On the 4-hour chart, XRP is caught between the moving average lines to the downside. The price of the cryptocurrency is rising after rising above the 21-day SMA. The current upward momentum will encounter resistance near the $2.60 high.

However, if the positive momentum continues, the market will reach its previous high of $3.00. In the meantime, the altcoin is oscillating above the $2.20 level and below the $3.00 resistance.
