|- XRP is testing critical support in a longer-term bullish environment.

Daily ATR
The following is a top-down analysis that illustrates the recent price action and where the next opportunity might show up on the daily and 4-hour time frames:
Monthly chart
It's been getting busy in crypto again!
Weekly charts, 1
The price has been volatile with huge price swings on a weekly basis.
The initial block of flow created an M-formation and the price respected the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the bearish impulse.
the price then pulled back and created a buying opportunity from support, subsequently rallying to test the neckline of the M0formation and thus leaving a new formation on the chart:

The W-formation was created and following the impulse, a correction would be expected, again, to at least test the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level.
Instead, as more than often happens, the neckline of the formation was tested where the price would now be expected to hold within the 61.8%and 50% Fibos.
Daily chart
This leaves the outlook somewhat trapped between resistance and support on a daily basis.

The 4-hour basis identifies the levels better.

Given the bullish bias on the longer-term time frames, bulls will need to see price get above the resistance, where a restest of the structure would be probable.
An onwards rally to the -0.272% Fibo of the recent bearish correction's range opens risk to 39.356B.
