XRP sails near $0.85
On the daily chart, XRP price finally broke the ‘Symmetrical’ triangle formation. The symmetrical triangle forms when the price is broadly in a consolidation phase that forms two converging trend lines meeting at an inflection point.
XRP price made high of $0.86 above the upper trend line of the mentioned triangle with above average volumes. This indicates the underlying bullish current in the price action. Now, if the price retests the descending trend line at $0.82 without falling further, then it will be not a fake breakout.
In addition to that, the $0.86 also marked the breach of the critical 200-SMA (Simple Moving Average) at $0.84.
Traders will meet the first upside hurdle at $0.9. Next, market participants will take out the psychological $1.0 level.
On the contrary, a spike in sell order will invalidate the bullish outlook in XRP with the immediate downside target at $0.78.
A resurgence in the bearish momentum would locate the next support at $0.70.
