There was a break above the 50% Fib retracement level of the major decline from the $0.3061 high to $0.2498 low. Moreover, there was a break above a major bearish trend line with resistance at $0.2805 on the 4-hours chart of the XRP/USD pair. It opened the doors for more gains above $0.2800 and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).

However, the price faced a strong resistance near the $0.2900 area (the previous support area). Additionally, the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the major decline from the $0.3061 high to $0.2498 low is acting as a resistance near $0.2925. At the moment, the price is consolidating above the $0.2800 level and 55 simple moving average (4-hours). If there is a successful break above the $0.2925 level, the price could surge higher.

In the mentioned case, the price could even climb above $0.3000 and $0.3060. The next stop for the bulls might be near the $0.3190 level. It represents the 1.236 Fib extension level of the major decline from the $0.3061 high to $0.2498 low. Conversely, if there is a downside correction, the $0.2800 level could play an important role.
