XRP Price Loses Ground As Bearish Pressure Quietly Builds

XRP has broken below key support levels around $1.3420 and is showing bearish technical signals as it trades above $1.3150. The price faces potential further downside if it cannot reclaim resistance near $1.3380, with major support levels at $1.3200 and $1.3150 being tested.

XRP is experiencing a technical breakdown that mirrors broader weakness in major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The asset failed to sustain momentum above the $1.3450 zone and has since slipped below the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level from its recent upswing, signaling weakening buyer interest at higher price levels. The formation of a declining channel with resistance at $1.3380 suggests sellers remain in control on shorter timeframes.

This decline occurs within a broader correction pattern following XRP's rally from $1.2658 to $1.3642. The breach below the 50-hour Simple Moving Average and the asset's current position above the 100-hour SMA indicate the sell-off is accelerating. Technical indicators reinforce the bearish thesis: the hourly MACD is gaining momentum in the bearish zone while the RSI has dropped below 50, eliminating any overbought conditions that might invite mean-reversion buying.

For investors monitoring this move, the critical levels are now psychological and structural support zones. If $1.3150—which coincides with the 50% Fibonacci retracement—breaks decisively, XRP could test $1.3120 and potentially $1.3050. A close below $1.3150 would suggest continued weakness toward $1.2920 and $1.2880. Conversely, bulls need to reclaim $1.3380 resistance to invalidate the bearish setup and target $1.3500 and higher.

The downside pressure reflects market-wide risk-off sentiment rather than XRP-specific negative catalysts. Traders should monitor whether this decline stabilizes at established support or extends further, as the technical structure currently favors additional losses.
