Watch: the daily chart check
▶ PlayThe daily candle
XRP closed the September 24 daily candle at $1.53, up 2.25% on the day, after trading between $1.45 and $1.55.
Moving averages
The close of $1.53 is 9.2% above the 20-day average ($1.40).
The close of $1.53 is 18.1% above the 50-day average ($1.30).
The close of $1.53 is 20.3% above the 200-day average ($1.28).
The 50-day average is above the 200-day average. A moving average is the mean of the last N daily closes; where the price sits against it describes the recent trend, not the next one.
Momentum: RSI and MACD
The 14-day RSI reads 62.0, between 30 and 70, neither extreme. RSI compares the size of recent up days with recent down days on a 0 to 100 scale.
MACD (12, 26, 9) is 0.05175 against a signal line of 0.03763, so the MACD line is above its signal. MACD measures the gap between a fast and a slow exponential average.
Volume and range
Volume on the day was 1.22 times its 20-day average. Volume counts how much traded; a move on heavy volume involved more of the market than one on light volume.
The Bollinger Bands (20 days, 2 standard deviations) run from $1.25 to $1.56, and the close is inside the bands.
Over the previous 30 days the highest close was $1.57 and the lowest $1.28.
