XRP is trading near $1.40 after failing to hold gains made earlier in the week. The token has been under pressure as sellers regained control and momentum indicators turned negative.
XRP Price
The 4-hour chart shows a descending triangle forming. This pattern is made up of lower highs pressing down on a flat support line. It often points to more downside if the support breaks.
The MACD has crossed below the signal line. Red histogram bars are growing, which shows downside momentum is picking up. The RSI has fallen to around 40, meaning buyers are losing strength.
The $1.40 level has been tested multiple times in recent sessions. Repeated tests of support tend to weaken it over time, raising the chance of a breakdown.
If XRP drops below $1.40, the next support levels are at $1.38, then $1.36, and possibly $1.34 if selling pressure continues.
On the upside, bulls need to reclaim $1.43 first. A stronger barrier sits at $1.45, which lines up with the descending trendline. A break above $1.45 could open the path to $1.50.
In the past 30 days, Bitcoin and Ethereum have gained 17% and 16% respectively. XRP has returned just 5% in the same period, showing that investors are still favoring higher-quality assets.

One analyst noted that XRP’s weekly RSI dropped to 30 in early March. Historically, the three previous times the RSI fell below 33, XRP saw gains of between 226% and 1,460% in the months that followed.
Based on that pattern, analysts at FX Empire believe the cycle bottom may have already been set at $1.30. They see a potential move to $1.50 as the short-term target, followed by $1.65.
