XRP Price Hovers at Key Support As Buyers Eye 29% Upside

Key Insights:

• XRP price is holding a key support zone near $1.96, which now decides the next move.
• Fresh buy signals and lower selling activity suggest downside pressure may be fading.
• A hold above support keeps a 29% XRP price move toward $2.58 in focus, while a break below $1.90 invalidates the setup.

XRP price is again at an important point. At press time, the Ripple coin was trading near $1.99, close to a support zone that held for weeks.

This support area sits between $1.96 and $1.90. Since late November, the Ripple coin price has not closed clearly below this range.

At the same time, new buy signals have started to appear on the chart. On-chain data also shows fewer coins being moved to sell. Together, these signals suggest selling pressure may be slowing.

But the situation is still not bullish for Ripple Coin. If this support breaks, the outlook changes to bearish. Right now, everything depends on whether the XRP price can hold this one level.

Why the $1.90 Support Zone Matters for the XRP Price?

Support is a price area where buyers usually step in. In simple words, it is a level where price often stops falling.

For XRP price, the $1.96–$1.90 zone has worked as support since late November. Each time the price moved close to this area, it found buyers. That is why this zone is important now.

XRP price staying above $1.96 would now be important. It would show buyers are still active. However, if the price falls below $1.90 and stays there, it signals that buyers are stepping back.

This makes the current range a decision zone. It is not about guessing direction. It is about watching whether this level holds or fails.

Buy Signals and On-Chain Data for Ripple Coin

A TD Sequential buy signal has appeared on the XRP price chart. This indicator looks for signs that selling pressure may be getting tired.

It does not promise a rally, but it often appears near short-term bottoms.

Even the analyst highlighting the buy signal underlines the importance of the $1.90 price level, which we already discussed earlier. Having said that, XRP price may move towards $2.50 if that support level holds.

At the same time, on-chain data supports this idea that some strength might be returning.

The spent coins metric, which tracks how many coins are being moved to sell, has dropped sharply. It fell from about 132 million coins to around 4.6 million coins. This is the lowest level seen in more than a month.

In simple terms, fewer Ripple coin holders are sending coins to exchanges. When fewer coins move for selling, the price often becomes more stable. This does not guarantee a rise, but it reduces pressure on the downside.

These two signals together suggest selling may be slowing near support.

Upside Targets and Clear Risk Levels for XRP Price

XRP price staying above $1.96 could make it start moving higher. The first level to watch is $2.11.

A move above this level would show buyers are regaining control. One key analyst account even highlights the importance of the $2 psychological level for Ripple coin price.

After that, the next resistance sits near $2.28. If the price clears this zone, the main target becomes $2.58. From the current price area, a move to $2.58 would be close to a 29% upside.

But the risk is also present. If XRP price breaks below $1.90 and fails to recover quickly, the setup weakens.

In that case, price could slide toward $1.81, and even $1.52 if selling grows stronger. A move below $1.90 would cancel the bullish idea. The downside risk for the XRP price is also a significant 23% if the support breaks.
