XRP had been trading inside a symmetrical triangle pattern since mid-April. The coin attempted to break toward the upside of this pattern at the start of May but failed to close a daily candle above the upper angle on each attempt.
Over the past fortnight, XRP dropped into the support at $1.25, provided by the Feb 2018 highs. It held this support and rebounded from there this week to hit resistance at $1.50.
Today, XRP pushed higher above $1.50, reaching as high as $1.73, allowing it to break above the triangle. Although it has dropped slightly from today’s highs, the buyers are battling to remain above the triangle. We must wait for today’s candle to close above the triangle to confirm the breakout.
