An 18% hike in value from $0.697 to $0.84 was a much needed XRP rally, prior to which some questions[1] were raised about the alts’ restricted movement. Its daily active addresses stood at a 3-month low and the Ripple V SEC lawsuit presented another dilemma. Nevertheless, BTC’s rise above $45,000 proved to be the catalyst for XRP, the result of which saw the alt finally close above its daily 200-SMA (green) for the first time in seven weeks.

Following XRP’s rally, the $0.84 ceiling triggered an 8% decline in the market but prices formed a higher low at $0.76. Successive higher lows formed prior to this jump were used to plot out a lower sloping trendline. Similarly, the upper sloping trendline was used to indicate resistance at $0.84. Another barrier area lay just above this at $0.842 which also coincided with XRP’s 12th June swing high. Based on the ascending triangle plotted on the chart, a successful close above these levels would propel the digital asset  to its next swing high of $0.93- resulting in a further 10% hike.

Immediate breakout?

The RSI even formed two lower peaks
