XRP price fell below the critical $1.40 level, signaling weakness in the short-term outlook. After the last decline, buyers’ attempts to move the price up remained limited and sellers seem to be more dominant throughout the market. The fact that the price has difficulty recovering reveals that demand is not strong enough at this stage.
Critical Levels Stand Out in Price Movement
In the last 24 hours, XRP lost approximately 3.7% in value, falling from $1.4404 to $1.3665. Although the price rose to $1.4018 for a short time, especially due to the effect of high-volume sales during the day’s transactions, this level could not be maintained. Then, it was observed that the price retreated again and got stuck in the range of 1.36–1.42 dollars.
The downward structure formed within this band shows that the price is advancing by making lower peaks. The $1.40–1.41 range has now become a resistance zone in the short term. It is considered that upward attempts may remain limited unless a permanent rise above this level is achieved.
On the other hand, the $1.38–1.40 band is currently viewed as a critical support area. It is stated that if this region is protected, the price may move horizontally for a while and seek balance. However, it is stated that if there is a clear break below this level, the downward movement may accelerate.
Technical Outlook And Market Dynamics
From a technical perspective, a loss of the $1.40 level indicates a significant deterioration in the short-term market structure. The price appears to be currently moving within a downward channel and the downtrend is continuing along with the weakening in volume. This structure is generally interpreted as an appearance indicating a dispersion process.
Weakness is also noticeable in the medium-term trend. The formation of lower peaks since mid-2025 reveals that the general trend remains downwards. Therefore, stronger resistance levels must be overcome in order for upward movements to create a permanent trend change.
There is a limited recovery on the corporate demand side. Although an inflow of approximately 636 thousand dollars was recorded on the spot ETF side on a weekly basis, this figure remains well below the strong demand in previous periods. This shows that major investor interest has not yet increased significantly.
In the short term, the price must hold on to the current support zone to retest the $1.41–$1.44 range. On a broader scale, exceeding levels around $1.55 stands out as an important threshold for a clearer change in the market structure.
In the downward scenario, if the $ 1.36 level is lost, the $ 1.30-1.32 range may come to the fore. The weaker support density in this region may cause possible declines to occur faster. In the current chart, it seems that the momentum is still on the side of the sellers.
