The price is now trading below $1.60 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $1.60 level. The first major resistance is near the $1.650 level. There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance at $1.650 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.
A close above $1.650 could send the price to $1.720 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $1.938 swing high to the $1.50 low. The next hurdle sits at $1.770. A clear move above the $1.770 resistance might send the price toward the $1.80 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $1.8350 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $1.90.
Another Decline?
If XRP fails to clear the $1.60 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1.540 level. The next major support is near the $1.5150 level.

If there is a downside break and a close below the $1.5150 level, the price might continue to decline toward $1.50. The next major support sits near the $1.4650 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.420.
