It is now trading near the $0.5700 resistance level and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours). It is showing a lot of positive signs. An immediate resistance is near the $0.5890 level. It is close to the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the key downward wave from the $0.5945 high to $0.4350 swing low.

A close above the $0.5890 level could set the pace for a sustained upward move towards the $0.6000 and $0.6120 levels in the near term.

Dips Supported in XRP?

If ripple starts a short-term downside correction, it could find support near the $0.5500 level. The first major support is near the $0.5400 levels, where the bulls are likely to take a stand.

The main support is near the broken channel trend line or $0.5200. Any more losses may perhaps decrease the current bullish pressure.
