XRP Tests $1.12 Support as Analysts Split on Rebound or Deeper Drop
Whether buyers hold $1.12 is likely to determine a short‑term rebound or a further slide because thin on‑exchange liquidity and looming U.S. regulatory moves can amplify any large flows.
Overview
- XRP traded around $1.12 on Thursday after a roughly 3.1% intraday fall and an about 8.9% loss for the week with volume near $1.8–$1.9 billion, leaving the token locked in a tight support battle.
- Technical voices are divided: some see a falling‑wedge and Fibonacci setup that needs a clear reclaim of $1.66–$2.00 to validate large upside, while others say a break above $1.25–$1.30 on strong volume is the nearer confirmation for a move to about $1.65.
- A Tom DeMark Sequential buy signal has flashed, which suggests a possible short‑term rebound, but price sits below the 100‑hour moving average so that signal requires follow‑through to matter.
- Thin on‑exchange order books and modest ETF and futures flows mean single large trades or a burst of volume tied to U.S. regulatory news could drive outsized moves in either direction.
- Traders are watching immediate resistance at $1.12–$1.13 and a chain of upside levels to $1.18 and $1.30, with downside invalidation points at $1.09 then $0.90–$0.86 and lower Fibonacci retracements if support breaks.
