FX.co ★ Short-term technical analysis on XRP/USD

XRP/USD as expected has reached the major Fibonacci resistance of $1.60-$1.70. Price has made an impressive upward move and now we have some signs that justify a pull back from current levels. This does not put the bullish scenario in danger, but in order for the bullish scenario to be confirmed, bulls will need to recapture $1.80-$1.85 first.

XRP/USD is trading just below $1.60. Price has stopped the rise from the $0.88 lows at the area where we find the important Fibonacci resistance of 61.8% retracement. Now XRP/USD has increased chances of falling towards $1.36 or even $1.18 before resuming the uptrend. If XRP/USD breaks above $1.66 and does not pull back from current levels, it should move close to the major resistance of $1.80-$1.85. As long as price is below $1.80-$1.85, XRP/USD is vulnerable to a pull back.
