XRP has staged a sharp recovery from its August lows against USDT, breaking above the descending large channel and reclaiming key moving-average levels. However, the rally has now reached a major resistance area around $1.50, while momentum is beginning to cool down.<\/p>\n

The broader structure is therefore improving, but the token still needs a sustained breakout above this supply zone. Meanwhile, the XRP\/BTC pair is also lagging behind, which is a notable development to watch.<\/p>\n

Ripple Price Analysis: The USDT Pair<\/h2>\n

XRP spent much of the year trading inside a broad descending structure, with the descending trendlines defining the dominant downtrend. The latest move represents a significant structural shift, as price surged from around $1.00 and decisively broke above the upper descending trendline as well as the 100-day and 200-day moving averages, located around $1.15 and $1.30 levels, respectively.<\/p>\n

The breakout pushed XRP to a local high with a long wick near $1.70 before the price retraced sharply. XRP is currently trading around $1.41, meaning the initial breakout impulse has already undergone a meaningful correction.<\/p>\n

The main resistance is now concentrated between $1.45 and $1.55. This zone previously acted as a major supply area and has once again capped the recovery. A daily close above $1.55 would strengthen the bullish case and could open the way toward the larger $1.85-$1.90 resistance zone.<\/p>\n

On the downside, the 100-day and 200-day moving averages are the dynamic support levels to watch. Holding above them would keep the bullish reversal thesis intact.<\/p>\n

Momentum has also improved dramatically. The RSI surged above 75 during the breakout, entering overbought territory, but has since pulled back toward the mid-70s. This cooling is not necessarily bearish by itself, as it could simply indicate that the market is digesting the vertical rally. However, continued RSI deterioration while XRP remains below $1.50 would increase the risk of a deeper retracement.<\/p>\n

The BTC Pair<\/h2>\n

The XRP\/BTC chart provides an important additional perspective. XRP also broke sharply higher against Bitcoin after spending months inside a descending channel. The move briefly lifted the pair from roughly 1,500 sats to above 2,000 sats, although a substantial portion of that advance has already been retraced.<\/p>\n

The immediate resistance is still around 2,000 sats, where horizontal supply and the upper boundary of the descending channel converge. A sustained breakout above this region would indicate that XRP is beginning to outperform Bitcoin on a more structural basis, which could lead to a structural rally for Ripple in the coming months.<\/p>\n

However, as already mentioned, the recent spike above roughly 2,000 sats was rejected, producing a long upper wick and subsequent weakness. The pair has subsequently fallen back below its 200-day moving average, which is located just above 1,800 sats.<\/p>\n

This makes the current area important, as holding around 1,700 sats and above the 100-day moving average could allow XRP\/BTC to stabilize and attempt another attack on resistance, whereas losing this region would expose the deeper fair-value-gap area below 1,700 sats.<\/p>\n
