XRP is trading at $1.46, up 9.4% in 24 hours after breaking a downward trend line and jumping from about $1.33 to $1.46 while defending a critical support near $1.36 that averted a drop toward $1.27. If it closes above the recent resistance the next target is $1.54 but it still faces a long-term resistance zone at $1.50-$1.80 that must be cleared for a sustained rally toward $1.80-$2; failure to break that zone could see the crypto token stall or retest lows near $0.98 over the coming weeks.

XRP is trading at $1.46, up 9.4% over the past 24 hours, after breaking through a downward trend line it had been stuck under for days. The move took XRP from roughly $1.33 to $1.46, one of its strongest single-day gains recently.
A Key Support Level Was Just Defended
XRP had dropped to a critical support level around $1.36 the day before, a level that needed to hold or risk a deeper fall toward $1.27. XRP held that line, then pushed higher, an important sign that buyers stepped back in.
If XRP can close today’s session above the resistance line it just broke, the next real target becomes $1.54. But XRP still hasn’t cleared a bigger obstacle above that, a long-term resistance zone between $1.50 and $1.80 that has capped rallies for months.
Until XRP breaks cleanly above that zone with real follow-through, the bounce could still turn out to be temporary rather than the start of a bigger rally.
XRP is currently sitting in a tight, undecided zone. If buyers keep control and push above resistance, the path opens toward $1.80 to $2, an area that acted as strong support for most of 2025 before XRP lost it and fell sharply, eventually bottoming near 98 cents.
But if XRP fails to clear resistance and starts drifting sideways for a couple of weeks instead, a retest of that low remains a real possibility, echoing a similar pattern that played out after XRP’s 2022 bottom, when the token rallied, stalled out in a similar zone, and eventually slid back down.
XRP has bounced back impressively, but the token hasn’t proven the rally is durable yet. There’s real hope XRP breaks out for good, but if it stalls and drifts sideways over the next couple of weeks instead of pushing higher with strength, that wouldn’t be a reason to panic, it would simply mean XRP needs more time to build a base before its next real move.
