Ripple Price Rally Could Gain Pace

In the past few sessions, there were strong gains in ripple above the $0.2650 resistance. XRP price even broke the $0.2720 and $0.2750 resistance levels.

Finally, there was a break above the $0.2800 level and the price settled nicely above the 100 hourly simple moving average. A new 2020 high is formed near $0.2811 and the price is currently consolidating gains.

There was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the $0.2617 low to $0.2811 high. However, the price is finding strong bids above the $0.2720 and $0.2710 levels.

Moreover, there is a key contracting triangle forming with resistance near $0.2788 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. If the price continues to consolidate, there are high chances of an upside break above the triangle resistance and $0.2800.
