The ‘Bullish Divergence’ Signal: Why XRP Could Be Poised to Rise

XRP is trading around $1.87 as the price falls, volume remains steady and analysts watch key levels for a possible breakout or collapse.

Market structure indicates tension

According to BitGuru, XRP follows a common cycle: an initial rally, followed by a long consolidation, and then a gradual downtrend. Recent price behavior fits this description. The strong move in July gave way to sideways action through October, after which a steady decline occurred. Since November, XRP has continued to fall, but without strong momentum.
