If there is a fresh increase, the bulls might struggle near USD 3,500. The first key resistance is now forming near the USD 3,550. Any more gains could set the pace for a move towards the USD 3,650 level.

XRP price is stuck below the USD 1.12 resistance level. The first key hurdle is near USD 1.15, above which the price might rise towards USD 1.20. If there is no upside break above USD 1.12, the price could decline towards the USD 0.950 level.
