XRP Price Surges 10% Following SEC Case Drop
After finding support above $0.480, XRP has experienced a significant increase in price. The recent decision by the SEC to drop its case against Ripple’s executives has sparked a surge in XRP, pushing it above the $0.50 resistance level.
On the 4-hour chart of the XRP/USD pair, a major bearish trend line with resistance near $0.4885 was broken. Additionally, the pair surpassed the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the previous decline from the $0.5510 swing high to the $0.4730 low.
XRP is now trading above $0.505 and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours), which is also benefiting other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana as they move higher.
Potential Resistance Levels
The immediate resistance for XRP is around the $0.524 level or the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the key decline mentioned earlier. The first major resistance lies near $0.532. If the price manages to close above this level, it could rally towards the $0.550 resistance.
If buyers continue to dominate and break above the $0.550 resistance, there is a possibility of further upward movement towards the $0.565 and even $0.585 resistance levels.

In the event of a downside break and a close below $0.505, the price could accelerate its decline and potentially retest the $0.4850 support zone.
