XRP is trading around $1.749, showing signs of sustained selling pressure on the 1-hour chart. With multiple indicators aligning to bearish sentiment, the chart also hints at a potential short-term rebound, contingent on support holding at a critical level. This analysis breaks down the current state of XRP using multiple timeframes, technical patterns, and three core indicators: Bollinger Bands (BB), MACD, and the 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA20). Bearish Momentum Still in Control The XRP price has experienced a sharp decline since April 7, falling from above $2.00 to a low near $1.73. A clear bear flag pattern formed during the brief consolidation phase between $1.85 and$1.95, which eventually broke down. This bearish continuation was reinforced by the MACD indicator, which showed a bearish crossover and negative histogram flip. Additionally, the price has been consistently rejected by the SMA20, serving as a dynamic resistance. Key Chart Patterns Identified Bear Flag Breakdown The flagpole began on April 7, with consolidation within a tight range before breaking down on increasing volume. This confirmed a bearish continuation pattern. Lower High Structure The price has consistently formed lower highs—$1.91, $1.89, and now near $1.75—indicating persistent downward pressure. Bollinger Band Squeeze A temporary contraction in the bands was followed by a sharp expansion to the downside, which is typically a volatility expansion signal in the trend’s direction. Double Bottom Potential A possible double bottom is emerging around $1.73, a key support level. If this level holds and MACD begins to show bullish divergence, a short-term rebound may take place . Indicators in Focus Bollinger Bands: Price currently trades near the lower band, suggesting oversold conditions. SMA20: Continues to act as resistance. A break above it could signal the start of a reversal. MACD: Still bearish on the 1H chart, but shorter timeframes (15min, 30min) may soon show divergence. Support and Resistance Levels Major Resistance: $2.039 – Horizontal resistance from previous highs. $1.974 – Recent lower high and breakout failure. $1.852 – Middle BB/SMA20 level on the 1H chart. Major Support: $1.731 – Immediate and critical support. $1.60 – If $1.73 breaks, this is the next target. $1.50 – Strong psychological and technical support.

Candle close above SMA20 on 30min/1H timeframe. Volume increase on green candles near $1.73. Short-term target on the rebound: $1.85–$1.90. Invalidation: A close below $1.73 with strong momentum may lead to $1.60 or lower. XRP is currently in a bearish trend, but short-term indicators suggest a potential bounce if key support holds. Traders should watch the lower timeframes closely for confirmation signals while maintaining caution until the $1.85 resistance is reclaimed.
