Potential risks and resistance levels ahead
If XRP can sustain its current upward momentum and successfully break out of the $0.5724 per share resistance and close above it, it could continue to rise to challenge the $0.6697 per share resistance. A successful breakout of this level could see the price rise further towards the $0.7342 per share resistance and possibly higher levels.
Conversely, if XRP falls back to $0.5724 per share, it could retest the support level on the way down towards $0.3389 per share. If this support level is breached, the price could fall further to challenge the support level at $0.3483 per share and possibly even drop to lower levels.
