XRP saw an extraordinary 32.5% price explosion today, which allowed the cryptocurrency to hit 17-month highs not seen since June 2019. It's up almost 60% for the week but is still down 90% from its ATH.

XRP/USD – Bullish Explosion Leads To 17 Month Highs

Key Support Levels: $0.4, $0.388, $0.378.
Key Resistance Levels: $0.42, $0.44, $0.457.

Today, XRP surprised everyone as it exploded by a powerful 32.5%. The cryptocurrency started the day at $0.33 as it started to push higher to reach as high as $0.44. It has since dropped slightly to trade at $0.413.

The cryptocurrency had been showing signs all month that it was ready to start a bull run, but nobody could have guessed this type of price explosion was incoming. The coin had broken out of a symmetrical triangle pattern at the start of the month as it started to push higher. XRP went on to reach $0.3 by mid-week and stalled here for a few days until it broke the resistance yesterday to reach $0.33.

XRP-USD Short Term Price Prediction

Looking ahead, if the buyers can continue this epic bullish push, the first two levels of resistance are found at $0.42 and $0.44. Above this, resistance lies at $0.457 (bearish .786 Fib), $0.48, $0.486 (1.272 Fib Extension), and $0.5.

On the other side, if the sellers push lower, the first level of support lies at $0.4. Beneath this, support lies at $0.388 (.236 Fib), $0.378, $0.36 (.382 Fib), and $0.35 (2020 High).

As expected, both the RSI and Stochastic RSI are extremely overbought with such a powerful push in one day.

XRP/BTC – Buyers Push XRP Back To October Highs

Key Support Levels: 2100 SAT, 2035 SAT, 1945 SAT.
Key Resistance Levels: 2335 SAT, 2450 SAT, and 2545 SAT.

XRP also managed to push higher against Bitcoin today as it surged into the 2335 SAT resistance (bearish .618 Fib Retracement & October high). The coin has since dropped slightly from here as it trades at 2185 SAT (bearish .5 Fib & 200-days EMA).

This is a very promising signal for any market buyers as XRP has struggled heavily against BTC for the past 3-months running.
