XRP looks poised for Blast off

Long
KRAKEN:XRPUSD   XRP
No telling how long or how far for this glorified S* Coin.

TLDR: XRP poised Bullishly against ETH, BTC and USD.

The 12h chart is one of my favorites for planning swing trades and so I turn to there. The RSI/Stoch/StochRSI indicators which have become popular recently show a rising floor on the RSI suggesting a shifting in control from bears to bulls and that is confirmed by the fact the RSI has just dipped but stayed over 50. The green arrows show that there is no bearish divergence we need to worry about peak to peak so we should be safe to set some new peaks before XRPUSD has another major retracement. The Stoch RSI shows HIDDEN BULLISH DIVERGENCE and a bullish cross below 20. I expect the Stoch RSI will move bullishly above 8880 and spend a lot of time above 20 just as I expect the RSI to spend a lot of time over both 20 and 50. Also, the black dotted line shows that previous resistance has become support.

The MAs and EMAs are not that helpful on XRPUSD right now at the 12h. The red arrows shows the MAs as a hot mess after the September pump and show a very immature bullish stacking of the moving averaged. A more mature move happens after the price action has gotten very tight and then the price begins its “Stealth take off” and all of the MAs and EMAs began to gradually unfurl into a bullishly stacked position, with price action being over the 20, which is over the 50, so forth so on. That almost never happens with XRPUSD, it is such a volatile asset.

The right end of the chart shows price action got narrow and now the MAs as starting to unfurl bullishly and soon we should have our complete stack. The EMAs have are also just on the verge of having that bullish stack. But we have seen XRPUSD get smacked back down before so some more assurances is desired.
The weekly charts and the OBV w/EMAs certainly seem to justify a big move is in the works. The horizontal line shows where previous resistance in 2017 has become support in 2019. The upward sloping purple line shows rising support. The 13 and 48 EMAS have been broken and generally those predict explosive moves for crypto. So we have a couple of platforms that XRPUSD could blast off from with EMAs, MAs, and horizontal and rising support. The OBV shows that we are about to have a bullish stacking there, with the the OBV above the 100 EMA, and the 10 and 20 looking to cross bullishly. The major resistance on this chart is the 100 EMA which I think will be broken in short order. Moving average traders should be looking for your usual break through with a possible retest.
XRPETH shows that XRP is staged rather well against ETHUSD using the MACD and RSI, which are the bread and butter of finding divergences. Lots of divergence with the RSI floor that developed late march and the MACD floor that developed in April. Those oscillators have turned the corner with CLASSIC BULLISH Divergence and next hope to see this trend establish a higher low with HIDDEN bullish divergence. This puts XRP ahead against ETH, and I have shown in my linked post how bullish I am on ETH.

I hesitate to use the OBV EMAs with most exchanges because of how spoofed the volume can be and since XRPETH isn’t a pair on Kraken I do this with some qualifications, but seem that the OBV EMA situation for XRPETH has found a floor and is taking off from there.
XRPXBT looks insane. This pump as created a falling wedge half mast which suggest massive gains, and that is poised within a potential head and shoulders, with even more gains. The cloud had its first bullish twist in a long time and we have the structure to get over. The key thing I will be watching for XRPXBT is the OBV with EMAs. The 100 EMA can still act as resistance and kill this move against our asset class benchmark.

Conclusion
I have a high-risk appetite and XRP has taken a lot out of me because of that and now I think I have a great setup against it. It looks great against its 3 biggest trading partners and it just received a massive punishment against its crypto pairs and I think it is undervalued. There is bullish divergence all over the place, there is previous resistance becoming support all over the place, and the volume situation appears to be confirming my suspicions. This might be the take off I have been waiting for. But XRP pumps sometime last months or sometimes only days. This trade is going to require a strange combination of patience and monitoring considering how quickly XRP can take your gains away.

And I promise every Floridian that you will all be rich... because we're gonna print some more money! Why didn't anybody ever think of this before?
