Ripple Price Analysis: XRP’s Next Critical Levels to Watch After a 20% Bounce

XRP remains in a corrective phase for both USD and BTC pairs. The recent rebound from locally oversold conditions has eased immediate downward pressure, but the broader structure still reflects a dominant downtrend, with rallies thus far failing to reclaim major resistance zones or longer-term moving averages.

Ripple Price Analysis: The USDT Pair

On the USDT chart, XRP continues to trade within a descending channel that has dominated price action since late last year. The market recently reacted from the $1.20 support band and produced a short-term recovery towards the mid-channel area around $1.45-$1.50.

This move has not yet challenged the primary resistance cluster between $1.75 and $1.90, where previous support, the local channel ceiling and the key 100-day moving average (yellow) meet.

As long as the asset is above the $1.20 demand region, the structure allows for further relief towards the $1.80 zone; a decisive rejection there would confirm the downtrend, while a loss from the short-term low of $1.30 would expose the next major support in the $1.10-$1.20 area.

The BTC pair

Against Bitcoin, XRP is consolidating near the lower half of its multi-month range around 2,000 sats, after an extended period of underperformance. The pair remains confined to layered resistance between 2,200 and 2,300 sats, reinforced by the downward moving 100-day (yellow) and 200-day (orange) moving averages, while a broader supply zone lies higher in the region of 2,400-2,500 sats.

Recent stability above 2,000 sats and modest improvement in momentum indicators point to short-term medium reversal potential, but the relative trend remains bearish as long as XRP/BTC trades below the 2,400-2,500 sats band, where a sustained breakout would be necessary to signal a more sustainable shift in market leadership.
