XRP Eyes Key Resistance Levels at $0.5080 and $0.5120 as Bulls Seek Rally

The XRP has been seen supporting at $0.500 and making a promising sign of uplift in comparison to the sluggish performance of Bitcoin. XRP is currently trading below $0.5100, but technical indicators suggest it is about to break out towards bullish strength. Assuming XRP breaks above the psychological $0.5120 resistance level, traders could see a rally emerge, with a sustained uptrend in XRP’s value being something they have been waiting for.

The recent price movement of XRP tells us that there’s a change in momentum. It has repeatedly tested resistance over the past few days, especially testing the $0.5120 mark. The cryptocurrency has broken past its bearish trend line, which would confirm that the XRP/USD chart has broken past resistance at $0.5020 on an hourly basis, according to Kraken data. The asset now faces a significant test: It may trigger an upward trajectory once it consolidates above the price zone of $0.5120 if it can.

XRP’s Technical Indicators Turn Bullish, Signaling Growing Buying Momentum

The outlook looks to be optimistic though XRP still presents the risk of a downside movement should it be unable to push above the $0.5080 and $0.5120 resistance levels. Should the situation be in motion, first support rests around the $0.5000 level as a psychological barrier that can be enough to stabilize the face of the price. 

However, if it goes below here, then the $0.4950 support will come into focus, followed by the possibility of a further slide down to $0.4920. In the case of a breakdown below $0.4950, $0.4880 support should be closely monitored, as a failure to defend could confirm a much deeper correction to levels seen in the recent trading action.

XRP’s technical indicators are bullish. However, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) in the hourly scale has moved to the bullish side and hence, growing buying momentum. Additionally, the relative strength index (RSI) in the same period surpassed the 50 mark, which indicates a raised buying interest. The current uptrend may be on, especially if XRP manages to clear the $0.5120 level these indicators point to.

Conclusion

The newly emerging XRP bulls will need to climb up to breakout above key resistance at $0.5080 and $0.5120. A rally, however, will be helped by favorable market conditions, though failure to break out will see a support retest below $0.5000. Signals of a sustained bullish trend await the traders.
