Ripple extended its rally above the $1.200 resistance zone before correcting lower against the US Dollar. XRP price is now consolidating gains and it is likely to rally again above $1.400.
In the past few days, ripple’s XRP saw a strong surge above $1.0000, unlike bitcoin and ethereum. XRP broke many hurdles near $1.200 to move further into a positive zone.
The price even rallied above $1.400 before the bears appeared near $1.485. A high was formed near $1.481 and recently there was a downside correction. The bears were able to push the price below the $1.420 and $1.400 support levels.
There was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.8598 swing low to $1.481 high. However, the price is still trading well above $1.250 and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours).

There is also a key contracting triangle forming with support near $1.310 on the 4-hours chart of the XRP/USD pair. The pair is placed nicely above the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.8598 swing low to $1.481 high.
On the upside, the $1.3800 level is an immediate resistance. The next major resistance is near the $1.400 level. A successful close above the $1.400 level is likely to start a fresh rally towards $1.500 and $1.650.
If ripple fails to clear the $1.4000 resistance or $1.450, it could correct further lower. An initial support on the downside is near the $1.3100 level and the trend line.
The next major support is near the $1.2500 level. Any more losses might call for a drop towards the $1.120 support zone in the coming sessions.
