The next resistance is near the USD 44,000 level, above which the price might gain bullish momentum.

On the downside, an immediate support is near the USD 43,200 level. The next key support is near the USD 42,500 level, below which the price might struggle in the short term.

If there is another bearish wave, the price might find support near USD 2,950. The next major support is near USD 2,850, below which the price could slide to USD 2,750.

XRP price is consolidating above the USD 0.820 support level. On the upside, the USD 0.85 is a major resistance. An upside break above USD 0.85 may perhaps open the doors for a move to USD 0.92 or even USD 1.00.
