Ripple (XRP) technical analysis:
Trade setup: Following a brief period of consolidation in a Bullish Flag pattern, price appears breaking out in the direction of existing Uptrend. Potential upside potential to $0.55 or even $0.60.
Pattern: Bullish Flag pattern. Short term small rectangle trading range between diagonal parallel lines. It moves counter to the prevailing price trend observed in a longer time frame on a price chart. It forms typically following a sharp advance and often indicates a small change in direction (or areas of consolidation) before the previous trend resumes. Flag pattern is among the most reliable continuation patterns that traders use because it generates a setup for entering an existing trend that is ready to continue. Trade is initiated on a breakout, if it is in the same direction as the prevailing trend. Also, with bullish flag patterns, traders prefer a breakout with an increase in volume but it isn’t a must.
Trend: Uptrend across all time horizons (Short- Medium- and Long-Term).
Momentum is Mixed as MACD Line is below MACD Signal Line (Bearish) but RSI > 55 (Bullish).
Support and Resistance: Nearest Support Zone is $0.45 (previous resistance), then $0.40. The nearest Resistance Zone is $0.55, then $0.60.
