I will be expanding this idea whenever major news regarding the SEC vs. Ripple lawsuit is available.

SEC
Rippling and Looking for a BreakoutRipple has been filling out what could be either a symmetrical or ascending triangle since its last pump in February while ranging from about $0.42 to $0.49 since Feb 24th as it tightens into the vertex.
Anticipating a breakout within a week or so with a slightly bullish bias, my confidence of a move in either direction is not great.
Analysis : Daily indications mostly looking for confirmation. Remaining Neutral-Slight Bullish Bias .
Currently, my bias is slightly bullish due to the price action holding the $0.40 area as well as the directional index still maintaining the +DI above the -DI with a potential for a +DI/ADX cross suggesting a continued bullish trend. The shown linear regression channel has the -2 standard deviation finding confluence with a fibonacci cluster in the $0.40-$0.39 range, indicating that this could continue to be a strong area of support.
Some bearish factors are that the RSI is still in what I consider to be a slightly bearish zone below the 50 level as well as the MACD having both the MACD and Signal lines below the zero center line.
Looking for confirmation of breakout via the following.
What does confirmation look like??
I would like to see the following:
Price Action
Bull: A bullish impulsive candle breaking out of the triangle with a solid close above $0.50 would likely indicate a run upward.
Bear: A bearish impulsive candle breaking out of the triangle with a solid close below $0.40 would likely indicate a run downward.
RSI
Bull: RSI breaks above 55 corresponding with a solid candle break and close above $0.50
Bear: RSI breaks low, below 38.2 with a solid candle break below $0.40
ADX
Bull: +DI crosses above ADX (White line)
Bear: -DI crosses above +DI as well as ADX indicating trend reversal
MACD
Bull: MACD line (Blue) pulls up and crosses above signal (Orange). This "bullish cross" happening ON the zero line would be a very bullish signal.
Bear: MACD continuing below the zero line and maintaining this downward trend
Given the recent news released that the SEC and Ripple have agreed on dates regarding the arguments for a motion to dismiss, all due by June 4th 2021. There is no clear ending the the current legal battle. That said, there appears to be a technical indication of some sort of move in price action in the very near future, though I am uncertain what the catalyst would be.
Thanks for reading,

RIPPLE(XRP-USD) Support Unbroken After SEC Statements! Buy!
Hello, Traders!
Ripple seems to have not reacted to the SEC charges announcement
Which means that these news were already priced in
And the major support is unbroken
Therefore,I think that Ripple will go Up
After the breakout from the local falling resistance
A narrative, that is supported by the support confluence nearby
Buy!

XRP Current situation The bottom is a basically capped now at 0.25655, making XRP one of the safest crypto to invest in because there are many that will do >50% dip. If by any chance it dips below 0.25655, the next minimum is 0.20471. We are at resistance of 0.4051, if we pass above that, that may act as support, and unless there is bad news in the SEC we would not expect to dip below that price again.
At 0.77507, if we pass that it will be straight bullish. At that point, if the SEC is not finished, I will begin to take profits at varying degrees. It will inevitably crash if SEC continues - I would start buying back at 0.77506, because that might act as the new support.
$LUMN - Lumen Technologies - Insider Buying & Resistance Break3/3/21
$LUMN - Lumen Technologies - 7.315% Gainer
Catalysts:

This combined with the stock price in a bullish uptrend and at resistance caused a breakout.

XRP update! MUST READ! Hey everyone!
Hope you are all staying safe. I would like to begin by saying DAMN MAN FR where did the love go?
Anyways, I still would like to provide content of which I believe can genuinely help whoever is looking to grow in trading.
After taking a look at the first RIPPLE VS SEC court session, it was evident to me that this case may be over sooner than expected. First I would like to speak on the perspective of the SEC and basing it on the fact that they are looking to focus on the marketing enacted by RIPPLE over the sales of XRP. This is quite unusual as if they were to have a stronger case, they would have focused on the contracting aspect of the sales of XRP but seems there incapable of providing that as evidence to the court. In my opinion, this seems to me that the SEC is going after who is able to sell XRP and how are those "sales" being enacted. With this being said, I believe it is the question the SEC is asking the judge for regulatory clarity for they are not pleading for exposure of fraudulent activity nor will the penalties include jail time. The SEC did heavily condemn the actions of Garlinghouse, Larsen and company. The judge did mention the currency in both terms, currency and security and this this not mean anything as judges are to be impartial. There was more to be said on the half of the defendants than the SEC, I believe the explanations of the defendants gave the Judge a lot more to think about than the SEC which seemed to have a lack of strong foundation other than a speaking on to the events of 2013. Ripple was apparently approached by the SEC in the past regarding the sales of XRP. My question is if they knew that this was not a currency but a security, why not do your job then? During those years, how many warnings of statements did the SEC issue to Ripple either publicly or privately. The timing of this lawsuit needs is impacting the current PERFORMANCE of XRP and we have SEEN this.
In my opinion this is the reason why XRP has suffered a correction based on the uncertainty of the outcome this case in the US and as I said in my previous report XRP will range at the 0.50-0.60USD!. This correction has brought an opportunity for retail and institution investors to accumulate XRP and a very low price however, it is the regulatory unclarity that is stopping or slowing down the institutions from buying XRP. Therefore, I believe with that once this case has been resolved in such a dominant market like the US, the world will follow as it usually does in a economic manner.
I believe that we are building structures to the 0.60-0.70 and this level will play as a "determiner" level, meaning that if we are to break above this level we just may be able to the same peak levels we have seen back in 2017.
***I am not a financial advisor nor am I legal counsel however, I do believe the content I provide can genuinely help those who are looking to grow in the aspect of trading. I advise you all to DYOR always!***
SEND THAT LOVE BACK!!!!
XRP vs. SEC - The case is right around the corner!I had planned on doing a follow up intraday markup to my previous post which I have attached
I understand why people hate XRP so much after what happened between 2017-Present
I was looking on higher time frames (daily/weekly) and saw a big drop incoming so the moves did not surprise me
I have seen good things fundamentally wise and more partnerships forming globally which means more integration
I advise traders take a look at what ripple has been doing ripple.com
I just don't see the SEC destroying XRP
If you take a look at the chart we are primed for lower prices
I believe we will drop through .44 .26 and .21 respectively
Once we clear those levels we could reach for .16
As XRP approaches these levels they will scare out the majority of retail traders
Everyone wants to buy low and sell high well here is your chance but will you do it?
XRP will beat the SEC case which will be the catalyst to get this party started and show everyone XRPs true value
XRP - Its gonna happen today!Daily close above 0.57 and we are fine. WE just broke on the lower timeframes out of the downtrendline.
One piece of good news, and this thing will fly.
Never saw so much price suppression in a coin like this. Without the SEC case, we already would be at 2-3 dollar with no doubt.
Green is een pretty strong resistance area. We need to overcome the little resistance box at 65c en heave resistance at 80-85 cents.
XRP Breakout Target $0,74In this chart you can see a potential breakout target of $0,74 which rhymes with the Fibonacci 1.618 level and the reversed symmetrical triangle technique.
Should BTC hold it’s current support or breakout again, XRP will follow. Tomorrow will be the start of the SEC trails, so this may fuel the breakout or ignite a sell-off.
4 DAYS TILL SEC HEARING HOLD TIGHT Ascending TriangleSEC hearing in less than 4 days now. I have located an Ascending Triangle.
What is an Ascending Triangle?
The ascending triangle is a bullish continuation pattern and is characterized by a rising lower trendline and a flat upper trendline that acts as support. This pattern indicates that buyers are more aggressive than sellers as price continues to make higher lows. The pattern completes itself when price breaks out of the triangle in the direction of the overall trend.
Ascending Triangle - the price usually (HOPEFULLY) follows the up-sloping support line of the triangle. The numbers count on the minor high and low touches of the trend line
How to identify an Ascending Triangle Pattern on Forex Charts
The ascending triangle is fairly easy to spot on forex charts once traders know what to look for.
Uptrend: The market must be in an uptrend before the ascending triangle appears. This is important and emphasises that traders should not simply trade the pattern whenever the ascending triangle appears.
Consolidation: The ascending triangle starts to take on its form as the market enters the consolidation phase.
Rising lower trendline: While the market is consolidating, a rising trendline can be drawn by connecting the lows. This ascending trendline shows that buyers are slowly pushing the price up – which provides further support for a bullish trading bias.
Flat upper trendline: The upper trendline acts as resistance. Price often approaches this level and bounces off until the breakout eventually occurs.
Trend continuation: After price posts a strong break above the upper trendline, traders will look for confirmation of the pattern via continued upward momentum.
Fingers crossed we get some good news and we can join the others on their BULL RUN. Missing out sucks!
I Feel Like XRP Is Going BackwardSometimes you just want to throw your hands up and sell the pants off of a specific asset.
XRP can be one of them.
This is the obvious reaction to the NEWS that a settlement will not be reached by the SEC and Ripple.
Thats fine.
Bags are packed, smoke em' if you got em', because we have plenty of time to get wealthy off of XRP. If nothing else, when it it happens we will have earned it.
Once we hit the .702 Fib well....we'll be on the rise.
Keep in mind, this is the 1 hour chart. On the 4hr there is a bullish pennant inbound. Take it as you will.
XRP won't do squat until we get NEWS...good NEWS on the SEC lawsuit.
Regardless, this is a longterm hold for me. If we dip below $.40 I'm going to accumulate more.
Love it or hate it, XRP has INSTITUTIONAL use...its not going anywhere.
Happy trading my friends.
NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE.
XRP update!Update!
Going back to my previous report I would just like to say THANK YOU FOR THE LOVE!
We can see that XRP is moving in the direction of which we predicted and if I may say we have might quite the accurate prediction.
In my "non pro" opinion, I believe we are simply creating structures to sustain the 0.60USD level. I believe this is to be due to the fact that we have not seen these levels CONSISTENTLY building bullish structures since before the SEC lawsuit.
I believe in order to get passed the 0.75USD level we need to consistently build bullish structures from the 0.40-50USD levels to introduce the breakout passed 0.75USD.
The big outburst are not going to last, any experienced trader understands this. We are currently at a level where XRP is being used as speculative subject because the financial institutions are aware of the ability this can provide to retailer investors and BANKS are always looking to have the advantage over retail investors.
With that being said, I would come to assume that regulatory clarity will side with financial institutions as they make the government more capital than the average retail investor and let us not forget to close ties between central banks to governments and banks to central banks. They are all connected.
With the focus being placed on XRP being used as a payment system to potentially replace the SWIFT system, one must ask themselves if retail investors will be able to buy XRP and other cryptos from banks as well.
The main point of this report is to provide my perspective on the fact that I believe the financial institutions are waiting for clarity in the US to integrate XRP in their system. Many people are speaking about Bitcoin not being regulated and that being a problem for the Crypto industry as a whole.
My answer to that is that Financial institutions are buying up assets like BTC AND ETH because once regulated they will have the upper hand as to who is protected under these new "crypto laws" that will be established. These assets will be mainly used for BUSINESS to BUSINESS transactions and XRP will be the one allow these financial institutions and businesses to connect with the average retail investor/average person. At this point it would make sense to see XRP hit 10 or even much higher.
Refer back to crash of 2008, people sold their homes and banks bought them up. Years later those same banks profited and now dictate the outcome of your financial decisions. I am not saying we retail investors will not have the ability to keep our XRP, however, I do believe it will come down to a day where the average retail investor is not able to buy even 1 XRP due the price being too high for them.
In my opinion, the system behind XRP is the reason why I am personally invested. The innovation that comes with XRP simply cannot be ignored and the thing this is just the beginning of understanding what XRP can do!
I do believe the GOV will provide clarity on XRP and other crypto currencies primarily to central banks, banks and businesses and finally the average person. In order to be well POSITIONED, and this is not Financial advice, I would buy and hold as much XRP as I can while I still can.
Thank you for reading this I did promise a more detailed report if y'all showed more love and you did!
Let's get some more love up in here and I wanted to ask you all, should I start making Youtube Vids? LET ME KNOW!!!!!
Short and SupportFollowing the recent XRP rally I have mapped out some possible short entries and support zones to take profits.
XRP rallies tend to end with a short and sweet wick which is highly volatile. Low leverage is necessary.
The road ahead for XRP will be rough. The ongoing battle with SEC will shake investor confidence overtime.
