Key Support Levels: $0.243, $0.237, $0.228.
Key Resistance Levels: $0.251, $0.26, $0.271.

XRP found support at the $0.23 level at the start of October. It rebounded from this support yesterday to finally push higher above the resistance at the 100-days EMA – a level which the coin struggled with throughout last week.

After breaking the 100-days EMA, XRP climbed into the resistance at $0.251 – provided by a bearish .382 Fib Retracement. The psychological round number of $0.25 further bolsters the area. The following 4HR chart shows how XRP is now trying to breach this level.
