Analyst Tyler Hill argues that XRP and Stellar’s XLM are showing early technical signs of a possible trend change, pointing to repeated buyer support during recent pullbacks rather than a decisive break below key chart levels. The video focuses on roughly three weeks of price action following highs the analyst places around August 21-22.
The claim matters because the broader market remains divided over whether crypto has already found a bottom or could face another steep decline into October or November. Hill does not say a bottom has been confirmed, but suggests XRP and XLM are behaving differently from prior bear-market retracements.
Buyers Are “Absorbing” the Selling Pressure
The central price chart argument is that both assets have repeatedly reacted at what the commentator calls major “buy zones” and “golden zones.” On four-hour charts, XRP allegedly posted several bullish-divergence signals as price declined, followed by short-term pushes higher from support.
“Every time that it hit one of these major buy zones,” the analyst said, buyers stepped in rather than allowing price to fall directly through support. In the speaker’s view, that pattern suggests sellers are losing some control of the move.
The same interpretation was applied to XLM. Hill said XLM repeatedly found buyers near short-term buy zones and a broader macro golden zone, producing a small uptrend after its earlier decline. That is contrasted with previous bear-market declines, when sharp pumps were followed by selling and little evidence of demand absorbing the move.
Volume Trend Adds to the Bullish Case
Daily trading volume was presented as another supportive signal. According to Tyler Hill, the initial upward move in XRP arrived with comparatively strong volume, while the subsequent pullback has occurred as volume declined.
He also interpreted that imbalance as evidence that the correction may be weaker than the preceding rally. A renewed volume spike alongside another price advance, the analyst said, would strengthen the short-term bullish case for both XRP and XLM.
