XRP price is consolidating below the $0.600 barrier. The price could surge if it settles above $0.600 or start another major decline.

#XRP price tried to settle above $0.600, but it struggled near the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the key decline from the $0.6319 swing high to the $0.5043 low. There is also a major contracting triangle forming with resistance at $0.600 on the daily chart.

The next key barrier sits near the $0.6320 level. A convincing move and close above the $0.6320 resistance zone could send the price toward the $0.6620 level. Any more gains might open the doors for a test of $0.700.
Another Drop?
Conversely, XRP price might fail to settle above $0.60 and react to the downside. Immediate support is near the $0.5680 level and 50-day simple moving average (blue). A downside break below the $0.5680 support might call for a drop toward the $0.5450 support or the triangle’s lower trend line.
The next major support is - seen near the $0.5050 level, below which the price could test $0.500 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $0.4620 level or even $0.4330.
Overall, #XRP price is eyeing a key upside break above $0.600. If the bulls succeed, the price could surge 15%-20%. If not, it might trim gains and revisit $0.5050 in the coming weeks.
