Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.
1. Ripple (XRP)
Ripple XRP is the currency that runs on a digital payment platform called RippleNet, on top of a distributed ledger database called XRP Ledger. While RippleNet is run by a company called Ripple, the XRP Ledger is open-source and not based on a blockchain, but rather the aforementioned distributed ledger database.
XRP Price Analysis
At the time of writing, XRP is ranked the 6th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.4198. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:
XRP printed some gains during Q1 after moving sideways for the past few weeks. The price is in a downtrend, with the 9, 18, and 40 EMAs providing resistance on each attempt to rally.
However, bulls are showing some interest at the 70.6% retracement, near $0.4372. If this level breaks, a move into possible support – just below the lows near $0.3752 – seems likely.
If the price does rally through the swing high at $0.4955 – perhaps triggered by a sudden surge in Bitcoin – bulls might find some resistance at the 61.8% retracement level near $0.5850.
Overlapping swing highs and lows near $0.6546 might provide the next target, where bears immediately forced the price down in late December.
More bullish market conditions could shift targets up near the midpoint of Q1’s consolidation, near $0.7217, where higher timeframes show an inefficiently traded zone.
2. Tron (TRX)
Tron TRX is a blockchain-based operating system that aims to ensure this technology is suitable for daily use. Whereas Bitcoin can handle up to six transactions per second, and Ethereum up to 25, TRON claims that its network has a capacity for 2,000 TPS. This project is best described as a decentralised platform focused on content sharing and entertainment, and to this end, one of its biggest acquisitions was the file-sharing service BitTorrent in 2018. Overall, TRON has divided its goals into six phases. These include delivering simple distributed file sharing, driving content creation through financial rewards.
TRX Price Analysis
At the time of writing, TRX is ranked the 14th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.07396. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:
TRX accompanied the rest of the market during the April drop, falling nearly 60% from early May until it found a low last week.
Price action formed a weekly support level near $0.06754, which has so far held up the price. The most recent swing low inside this range, near $0.06329, might be the target for any future stop runs. After this low, the swing low near $0.05889 and the gap beginning near $0.05426 mark possible higher-timeframe support.
The price is currently battling with significant higher-timeframe resistance levels, with the closest probable resistance resting near $0.07892, just over the previous monthly open. A sweep of the relatively equal highs above this resistance might find sellers near $0.08235, but could reach as high as $0.08737.
3. Compound (COMP)
Compound COMP is a DeFi lending protocol that allows users to earn interest on their cryptocurrencies by depositing them into one of several pools supported by the platform. When a user deposits tokens to a Compound pool, they receive cTokens in return. These cTokens represent the individual’s stake in the pool and can be used to redeem the underlying cryptocurrency initially deposited into the pool at any time. These COMP tokens can be bought from third-party exchanges or can be earned by interacting with the Compound protocol, such as by depositing assets or taking out a loan.
COMP Price Analysis
At the time of writing, COMP is ranked the 90th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$66.93. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:
After rallying over 60% from its March low, COMP is encountering resistance near $75.43.
This resistance and the monthly open at $80.13 currently have the price trapped. The swing high and resistance near $86.27 provide a likely target before any major bearish market shift, with continuation through this resistance possibly reaching for short stops and resistance near $92.55.
The daily gap at $62.12 could provide support, while the area beginning near $58.49 could see more substantial interest from the bulls. A longer-term bearish shift in the marketplace will likely reach the relatively equal lows near $50.48, possibly finding a floor at possible support beginning near $45.81.
