Ripple’s XRP has dropped back to a key support level after its good run in September. XRP rose up to $0.79 on September 21st when Ripple’s CEO announced three companies are now making commercial use of the digital asset and Ripple’s xRapid product. However, once the market participant started profit-taking, Ripple’s price went stumbling down to a key support level at around $0.48. Now we may have more reason to be optimistic about Ripple’s XRP’s future performance.

XRP/USD Technical Analysis

After forming a Double Top bearish reversal chart pattern that I observed last week, XRP/USD  has been ranging right above the pattern’s neckline in the past few days. Its attempts to break above $0.60 end of September has failed. Looking at the bright side, on the other hand, this level is way above Ripple’s previous consolidation level at around $0.25. Almost double. Furthermore, the price has broken above the daily Ichimoku cloud. The future cloud appears bullish. 

So what does the future hold for Ripple? From a long-term perspective, it’s still too soon to take profit in my opinion, and may very well reach and surpass current resistance levels which are set at $0.68, $0.79, and $0.93. Here’s why.
