XRP (UPDATED!) → Ripple Higher Highs! Long the Moon Candle!?
Updated
Ripple has formed another pattern for us to take advantage of! My previous analysis showed a bear channel followed by what looked to be a forming double bottom. Now we have an ascending channel that appears to be putting in a second higher high.
How do we trade this?
We have most of the pieces we need to long with one crucial exception; the bull confirmation candle. The ascending pattern, higher highs, price above 30EMA and 200EMA, and RSI above the Moving Average, are all requirements for the long entry and we have them on this chart.
Things to watch out for. Bitcoin as a leading indicator is at its Weekly Resistance, we need to be aware that if Bitcoin reverses here, it could stall market sentiment to the upside. Be ready to respond to a bear signal and follow through with any such long position.
Trade Idea
Long Entry: $0.62
Stop Loss: $0.60
Take Profit: $0.66
Risk/Reward Ratio: 1:2
Key Takeaways
1. Three Legs Down, Trend Reversed.
2. Two Higher Lows, confirming the second.
3. Price above 30EMA and 200EMA. Wait for a Confirmation Candle.
4. RSI at 55.00 and above Moving Average, Bias to Long.
5. Target 1:2 Risk/Reward.

Note
We still have not received a bull confirmation candle! But XRP has provided a critical teaching moment; do not trade a candle that has not closed! The previous 4HR candle started bullish and went all the way to $0.64! If you longed at $0.64 before the candle closed, it would have been a very short-lived trade. That candle closed with a massive wick down to $0.58 and now we’re following up with a bear candle below channel support.
We need to see if the 200EMA will act as strong support or if we need to wait until we get toward the bottom of the range around $0.57 to $0.58 before entertaining a long. We need a strong bull signal and confirmation candle closing on or near its high. More updates as they come!
