XRP remains in a corrective phase across both USD and BTC pairs, with recent strength fading back into established resistance and trend filters. The price action is now testing whether the early-January rebound was merely a short-covering rally within a broader downtrend or the start of a more durable base.<\/p>\n
On the daily chart, XRP\/USDT is trading just above the major horizontal demand zone around $1.80\u2013$1.90 after being rejected from the $2.40 supply band and the declining 100-day and 200-day moving averages. The moving averages continue to slope lower, confirming a medium-term bearish bias, while daily RSI has cooled from overbought levels back toward neutral, consistent with a fading bounce.<\/p>\n
As long as the $1.80\u2013$1.90 floor holds, the structure can still evolve into a basing range, with $2.20\u2013$2.40 as the first upside threshold that must be reclaimed to argue for trend reversal; a decisive daily close below $1.80 would instead open room toward the October capitulation lows around $1.60 and, if pressure persists, the higher-timeframe lower demand zone near $1.20\u2013$1.30.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n Against Bitcoin, the XRP\/BTC pair is hovering around 2,100\u20132,200 sats mark after a sharp rejection from the 2,400 sats resistance band and the cluster of the 100-day and 200-day moving averages. The pair remains locked in a structural downtrend, with each rally into the 2,400\u20132,500 sats area repeatedly sold and momentum failing to establish higher highs.<\/p>\n The lower support zone lies around 1,900\u20132,000 sats, where a recent downside wick indicates some demand, but until daily closes reclaim at least the 2,400\u20132,500 sats region and the key moving averages, relative performance continues to favor BTC. A breakdown below 1,800 sats would confirm renewed underperformance and could extend the slide toward the prior major demand area closer to 1,500 sats.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The post Ripple Price Analysis: XRP Bear Trend Continues \u2013 Is a Drop to $1.20 Inevitable?<\/a> appeared first on CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" XRP remains in a corrective phase across both USD and BTC pairs, with recent strength fading back into established resistance and trend filters.
