If the bulls continue to penetrate above $0.337, the next level of resistance lies at $0.35. Above this, additional resistance lies at $0.361, $0.379, and $0.39.

On the other hand, if the sellers push lower, the first level of support lies at $0.317. Beneath this, additional support lies at $0.31, $0.30, and $0.289.

The RSI has returned to overbought conditions after taking a brief dip below it. Similarly, the Stochastic RSI also produced a bullish crossover signal with further room to move higher. This shows that the bulls remain in complete control over the market momentum.

The break above 3000 SAT has started to turn XRP bullish. A further break above the 200-days EMA would confirm this. It would need to drop beneath 2700 SAT before the market would turn bearish.
