Latest update: XRP price confronts a crucial make-or-break test
XRP stays under pressure as the broader crypto market weakens. The token trades near $1.37, down about 60% from its July 2025 peak of $3.60. Since October 2025 the price has been on a steady decline, leaving analysts unsure whether a base is forming or further losses are imminent. Technical analysis by More Crypto Online (MCO) sees two possible paths on the four‑day chart. One view treats the recent moves as a B‑wave recovery within an ABC correction, limiting upside to around $2.86 before another pullback. The alternative counts the decline as a completed Wave 4, setting up a Wave 5 rally that could push XRP toward $6. MCO stresses the near‑term focus is on whether higher prices can be held rather than assuming an immediate trend reversal. The $1.21 level, the 50 % Fibonacci retracement of the Jan 2025 rally, is crucial; a break below $1.20, especially under the February swing low, could trigger a deeper fall toward $0.49‑$0.99. On the 30‑minute chart XRP forms three‑wave patterns between $1.21 and $1.54, indicating weak buyer control. A sustained move above $1.52 would support a short‑term base, while failure may test the $1.31‑$1.36 support zone.
