XRP has completed a golden cross, a bullish pattern that occurs when a short-term MA (the MA 50) crosses above a long-term moving average (the MA 200).
This pattern has recently appeared on a short-term chart, in particular the two-hour chart, and comes as XRP sees renewed bullish momentum at October's start.

XRP has steadily rebounded since Sept. 26, surpassing the $2.93 barrier since Oct. 1. The rally has surpassed $3 consecutively since this date, but has not been able to progress beyond $3.10.

At the time of writing, XRP was up 0.84% in the last 24 hours to $2.99 and up 7.02% weekly, according to CoinMarketCap.
Is it enough?
While XRP has formed a golden cross on its two-hour chart, this seems not enough as its price remains locked in a range between $2.94 and $3.10. The RSI, a momentum indicator, is near the 50 midpoint, indicating the likelihood of consolidation in the coming sessions.
Going forward, it will be watched if XRP can sustainably hold above $3 to seek a break above $3.10. If this occurs, XRP might aim next for the $3.30-$3.50 range, with a further breakout reaching $4.
