The Ripple price jumped 10% from yesterday’s low, which could signify that XRP is ready to resume the march higher. This article looks at some potential outcomes for the XRP price in the days and weeks ahead.
Ripple (XRP) is back on track and trading at $1.235 (+3.60%) on Thursday, increasing its gains in November to 11%. XRP’s market cap has risen by almost $3 billion to $57.83b in the last 24-hours, ranking it the 7th-largest cryptocurrency behind Cardano (ADA).
The XRP token started Wednesday brightly, reaching a two-month high of $1.387. However, late in the day, Bitcoin jumped to a record high of $69,000 before suddenly losing 9%, triggering a broad altcoin sell-off. As a result, the Ripple price slumped 20% from its intraday high before paring the one-day loss to -5.7%. BTC is currently stable above $65,000, encouraging XRP’s bullish momentum to carry over into Thursday. Subsequently, the technical outlook is improving, which suggests XRP could soon test the September high. That is, of course, as long as Bitcoin doesn’t suffer another bout of weakness.
The daily chart shows XRP has recovered trend support at $1.130. Furthermore, the 50, 100 and 200-day moving averages between $1.009 and $1.090 reinforce the significant scale-down support.
Also, yesterdays drawdown lowered the Relative Strength Index from 66.5 to 58.20, reducing the immediate threat of a correction.
As long as the Ripple price holds above the 200-DMA at $1.009, it should continue to trade with a bullish bias, targeting the September high of $1.435. However, a close below $1.009 invalidates the bullish view.
