According to our FXL XRP/USD daily analysis, XRP/USD shot to become the top-performing cryptocurrency by trading volume in the last 24 hours. While the spotlight began yesterday following Ripple Labs winning the SEC lawsuit, it’s important to evaluate the technicals and fundamentals to see how yesterday’s news aligns with the future direction of XRP. 

While studying the market to write the XRP/USD daily analysis, the XRP/USD pair missed the $1 mark by a few decimals after the announcement of the win. This not only attracted more buying volumes but enabled the resumption of Ripple’s positive sentiment across the market. 

XRP/USD daily price analysis

After hitting a high of 0.9472, XRP/USD corrected backwards to 0.73716. Buyers came in large volumes at this point, thereby pushing the price upwards to 0.82557. This is an interesting price point for XRP traders as it marks a supply level for break-even traders looking to take profit from short-term price swings. Before yesterday’s close, the XRP/USD pair dropped below this level multiple times but did not break below $077129, which is a minor support level.

The price did correct by the start of today’s (GMT) trading session, where it tested today’s daily low of $0.72464. This would however give more traders and [[XRP bulls]] to enter the market, thereby creating an important demand level for Ripple tokens. Thereby catapulting the price of XRP/USD to 0.82557 supply level, which again pulled the price downwards to the minor support level at $0.77129, marked by the middle red horizontal line on the chart below: 

The bears are attempting to push the price below a key support level, with the intention of triggering a downside move towards the 0.72464 price floor. This scenario would be advantageous for traders who have taken short positions on XRP/USD within the supply zone.

On the other hand, the bulls have the potential to counter this bearish pressure and consolidate their position. This positive outlook is supported by XRP’s strong fundamentals at present. If the bulls manage to consolidate, there is a possibility of the price testing the $1 mark. However, it is important to note that the bulls must first overcome the resistance level at 0.82557.
