XRP Price Analysis: Breakout Coming?
XRP’s weekly chart shows it is still influenced by a larger bearish divergence confirmed months ago. Around July and August, analysts warned that a multi-month pullback was likely—and it has largely played out.
The support zone now sits between $1.80 and $2.00. A weekly close below this area, especially if XRP fails to recover above it, could trigger a major bearish move reminiscent of the 2021–2022 bear market.
In the short term, XRP has been trading sideways with minor pullbacks. Immediate support is around $2.00 to $2.05, with further short-term support near $1.94. On the larger time frame, $1.80 is the critical level that could hold the price.
Resistance for XRP lies near $2.12 and $2.20. Any short-term bounce could see XRP testing these levels. Additionally, movements in Bitcoin may influence XRP’s trajectory; a Bitcoin breakout could provide temporary bullish momentum for XRP and other major altcoins.
