Why XRP’s 0.16 Leverage Floor Ends The Era Of The Flash Crash – And the Hope for a Quick Recovery
XRP continues to struggle near the $1.33 level as persistent selling pressure weighs on sentiment across the broader crypto market. Momentum has weakened notably in recent sessions, with buyers showing limited conviction while Bitcoin remains range-bound and liquidity conditions stay tight. This lack of directional clarity has kept altcoins under pressure, and XRP has not been immune to the broader defensive posture currently shaping digital asset markets. Technically, XRP is trading below the 50-, 100-, and 200-period moving averages on this timeframe, all of which are sloping downward. This alignment typically signals persistent bearish structure and suggests trend continuation unless price can reclaim these levels decisively. The 200-period average near the $2 zone now represents a major overhead resistance band. Volume patterns also show declining participation compared with the rally phase, indicating reduced speculative enthusiasm. Occasional spikes appear during sharp selloffs, which often reflect reactive liquidation rather than fresh accumulation.Related Reading
Structurally, the $1.20–$1.30 region appears to be the nearest support cluster based on recent price stabilization. A breakdown below that zone could expose lower liquidity pockets, potentially accelerating downside volatility. Conversely, sustained acceptance back above roughly $1.60 would be required to neutralize immediate bearish momentum.
