On the 4H time frame, the situation is also bullish as buyers are aiming at $0.55.
However, there are low chances of breaking it from the first attempt as liquidity is low at current levels; this means that a false breakout is more likely to occur.

In the long-term view, buyers may get the rate of XRP to $0.65 if today's candle closes around $0.55. The high trading volume is another reason for continued growth.
