Looking at the XRP/USD 1-Day Chart:

Since our previous XRP/USD analysis, we can see the market rebounded from our previously highlighted support at around $0.36, provided by the 200-day moving average. Ripple reached resistance at $0.4376, where the market fell slightly.
From above: The nearest level of resistance now lies at $0.4337. If the bulls can break above this level, the next zone of resistance exists between $0.4580 and $0.4617. The resistance at $0.4617 is provided by a long-term bearish .618 Fibonacci Retracement level (marked in red) and therefore will require significant momentum to overcome. Above $0.47, further resistance sits at $0.48 and $0.50.
From below: The nearest level of support now lies at $0.4235 and $0.42. Beneath $0.42, further support exists at $0.40, $0.39 and $0.379.
Trading volume has remained consistently high during May 2019.
The Stochastic RSI recently has reached oversold territory and is poised for a bullish crossover signal. Furthermore, the RSI recently rebounded from the 50 level which shows that the bulls still control market momentum.
