XMR/USD 13/06/19 Daily Chart

For the day ahead,

A hold above $89.20 levels through the morning would support upward momentum later in the day. Monero’s XMR would need to move back through Wednesday’s high $91.03, however, to take a run at the first major resistance level at $92.26.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, Wednesday’s high $91.03 would likely limit any upside on the day.

Failure to hold above $89.20 could see Monero’s XMR slide deep into the red before any recovery. A fall through to $88.4 levels would bring the first major support level at $87.06 into play.

Barring a crypto reversal, however, Monero’s XMR would likely steer clear of sub-$87 levels on the day.
