At the time of writing, the XRP price noticed upward movement on its chart. After the asset consolidated for a few days, it finally travelled north.

Over the last 24 hours, the XRP price registered a 6% appreciation. In the past week, the coin has rallied by over 20%.

Buyers were attempting to push the price up, and they finally succeeded over the last 24 hours.

XRP was stuck at the $0.38 price mark for a considerably long period of time, but buyers rescued the altcoin despite broader market weakness.

Continued pressure from the buyers could make XRP move past its immediate resistance, which would make it invalidate its bearish thesis.

On the other hand, if the bulls fail to defend the present price level, then the sellers will take over.

If the sellers take over, then XRP could be pushed close to the $0.30 price mark. At the current moment, XRP rests in a crucial support zone.

The altcoin was trading at $0.40 at the time of writing. The XRP price had witnessed weeks of consolidation on its chart. Finally, buyers pushed the price above the next resistance mark.

Over the past week, XRP has broken past many resistance lines.

The immediate price ceiling for the coin rests at $0.44 as the altcoin has had difficulty moving past that price level for multiple months now.

On the flip side, the closest support to XRP was at $0.38, and a fall from that level would bring XRP to $0.30.

If buyers remain steady, then XRP could push past $0.42 with a chance of toppling above the tough resistance of $0.44.

The amount of XRP traded in the last session declined slightly, indicating that the number of buyers also dropped to a small extent.

Buying strength recovered considerably over the last week, which slowly helped XRP travel upwards on its chart.

The Relative Strength Index was almost about to touch the overbought zone but it noted a downtick. Despite the downtick, buyers have substantially outnumbered sellers in the market.

Usually, an increased number of buyers creates a price pullback. In the event of that, XRP could rest at $0.38 before it picks up momentum again.

The XRP price was above the 20-SMA line, which signalled that buyers were driving the price momentum in the market.
