Bitcoin [BTC] traded at $19.1k at press time. The $19k and $18.6k are important lower timeframe support levels. A move below $18.6k could trigger a sell-off. The weekend has been rather quiet for Bitcoin and XRP thus far.

Here’s AMBCrypto’s Price Prediction for XRP in 2022

Both traded within a tight range over the past couple of days. However, 17 October could see this tightly wound spring unwind. The volatility of the coming days could see XRP hunt for liquidity to the downside before surging higher.

On the 12-hour chart, XRP formed a bearish divergence (orange) and saw a pullback to $0.45. However, this move downward did not go beneath the previous lows at $0.44. In the past few days, the pullback signaled it had ended when it broke above a recent lower high just above $0.488.

Moreover, the bearish divergence was followed by a hidden bullish divergence (orange dotted). This development indicated that the previous bullish trend could be set to continue.

The two lower timeframe levels to watch out for are $0.488 and $0.477. A move below $0.477 would inform traders to wait for a reaction near the $0.45 mark. Meanwhile, risk-loving traders can look to set bids on XRP already. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) climbed back above neutral 50, to show the bulls were slowly imposing their intent on the price.

The On-Balance Volume (OBV) made higher lows in recent weeks, but the buying pressure was not explosive according to the OBV. On the one-hour chart, the $0.486-$0.478 area formed a bullish order block where long positions can be considered.
