The Monero (XMR) price has regained all of its losses resulting from the Sept 2-4 crash and is currently making an attempt to break out above a major resistance level.
The XMR price is currently trading near an important resistance area found at $132. The area is the 0.382 Fib retracement level and a previous resistance area, above which the price has not traded since Aug 2018.
A successful breakout would likely take the price to $166, which is the 0.5 Fib level of the entire decrease and a previous support area.

Technical indicators are bullish as the MACD, RSI, and Stochastic Oscillator are all increasing. While the RSI is in overbought territory, it has not generated any type of bearish divergence yet.
On the other hand, a decrease would likely take the price to the closest long-term support area at $90. At the current time, this scenario seems unlikely.
Cryptocurrency trader @Altcoinsherpa outlined an XMR chart, stating that the price could increase all the way to $175. While the level is slightly above the resistance area we have outlined, it is close enough to create some confluence.
No Weakness Yet

Similar to the weekly chart, there is no weakness in technical indicators, even though the RSI is overbought.
The two-hour chart does not show any weaknesses either, even though the rally has started to become parabolic.
If the price were to decrease, there is minor support near $113. However, there are no signs that the price will do so just yet.

XMR/BTC
The XMR/BTC pair shows a similar movement to its USD counterpart, with the only difference being that the price has not yet reached the main resistance area found at ₿0.0122.
If XMR is successful in breaking out above this area, the next resistance would be found at ₿0.0139.
Sponsored SponsoredTechnical indicators are almost identical to XMR/USD in that the MACD, RSI, and Stochastic Oscillator are increasing, with the RSI already in overbought territory.
