XRP slipped below the $1.13 level on elevated trading volume, leaving market participants debating whether the move represents a final capitulation or the beginning of a deeper decline toward the $1.00 region.
While buyers have repeatedly stepped in around major support zones, XRP continues to lose those levels, with the latest downturn bringing price back toward the $1.10 area that many analysts had identified as a critical threshold. Selling pressure intensified once $1.13 was broken.
News background
Several analysts had previously highlighted the $1.09 zone as an important Fibonacci support level that XRP had been gradually approaching over time. Despite occasional relief rallies, the token remains below its 100-day and 200-day moving averages, reinforcing a broader bearish structure. Trading activity spiked sharply during the decline before quickly normalizing, indicating a repositioning-driven move rather than sustained bearish conviction.
Price action summary
XRP dropped from $1.1505 to $1.1248 over the session, declining by more than 4%. The breakdown accelerated after losing support near $1.13, with volume surging to 109.9 million XRP—more than twice the daily average. Price later tested $1.1240 before stabilizing as selling pressure eased into the close.
Technical analysis
The key development was the breakdown of $1.13, which now shifts into resistance on any rebound attempt. The selloff was validated by unusually high volume, pointing to forced liquidation and active repositioning rather than passive drift. At the same time, momentum indicators are approaching oversold territory, with daily RSI levels near historically rebound-prone zones. However, the broader structure remains bearish, with XRP still trading within a downward channel and below major long-term trend indicators.
What traders are watching
The $1.10–$1.12 range now serves as the primary support zone; a breakdown below it would raise the probability of a move toward $1.00, with further downside risk extending into the $0.80–$0.90 area. On the upside, XRP must reclaim $1.13 to reduce immediate bearish pressure. Above that, resistance sits at $1.20, followed by a stronger barrier near $1.35–$1.40 where prior rallies have stalled. The setup is tightening, leaving XRP at a point where either support holds decisively or the correction deepens further.
