The price gained pace for a clear move above the $1.3650 resistance.<\/p>\n<p>There was a break above a bearish trend line with resistance at $1.3350 on the hourly chart of the XRP\/USD pair. The bulls even pumped the price toward the $1.3880 zone. A high was formed at $1.3963 and the price started a minor pullback.

The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $1.4650.<\/p>\n<h2>Downside Correction?<\/h2>\n<p>If XRP fails to clear the $1.3880 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $1.3575 level. The next major support is near the $1.3330 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.2940 swing low to the $1.3963 high.<\/p>\n<p>If there is a downside break and a close below the $1.3330 level, the price might continue to decline toward $1.3080.
