XRP price started a fresh decline and tested the $2.080 zone. The price is now recovering and might aim for an upward move above the $2.20 resistance.

  • XRP price started a decent upward move from the $2.080 zone.
  • The price is now trading above $2.150 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.
  • There is a short-term rising channel forming with support at $2.140 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken).
  • The pair might start another increase if it clears the $2.20 resistance zone.

XRP Price Eyes Recovery

XRP price declined below the $2.250 and $2.20 levels, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price even declined below the $2.120 zone and tested the $2.080 support.

A low was formed at $2.085 and the price is now attempting to recover. There was a move above the $2.10 and $2.120 levels. The price climbed above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.338 swing high to the $2.085 low.

Besides, there is a short-term rising channel forming with support at $2.140 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The price is now trading above $2.150 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.

On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.20 level. The first major resistance is near the $2.2120 level. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.338 swing high to the $2.085 low.

The next resistance is $2.250. A clear move above the $2.250 resistance might send the price toward the $2.320 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.350 resistance or even $2.3650 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $2.420.

Another Decline?

If XRP fails to clear the $2.20 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.140 level and the trend line. The next major support is near the $2.120 level.

If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.120 level, the price might continue to decline toward the $2.080 support. The next major support sits near the $2.020 zone.

Once frenzied buying, now the "ammunition warehouse" shrinks by 51 trillion KRW! Korean retail investors can no longer afford to buy

In four months, Korean retail investors' "ammunition stockpile" has dropped by 36.5%, returning to levels seen at the beginning of the year. Although retail investors have collectively made net purchases exceeding 75 trillion won, they are still absorbing the sell-off, but the influx of new funds has dried up, and the replenishment rate lags far behind the consumption rate. Combined with the KOSPI plunging nearly 20% this month, continued net selling by foreign investors, and concerns over AI-related credit risks, the Korean stock market may find it difficult to see a sustained rebound in the short term without support from private investors' funds.

The Collapse of "Consensus Trading" and the Birth of a New Consensus! Goldman Sachs Explains: Why Institutions Are Currently Significantly Reducing AI Holdings

The extremely crowded trade of "going long on AI, short on everything else" is undergoing a painful unwinding—markets are no longer satisfied with the "burn rate narrative." Mega-scale cloud providers must deliver real, visible revenue conversions alongside $1.1 trillion in capital expenditures. A power gap of 40-50 gigawatts, rising capital costs, and a macro paradigm shift from an era of "overspending" are turning AI trades from a matter of faith into a harsh test of monetization.
