XRP slips 1.43% this week

Highlights

XRP is trading at $1.4099, below the MA-20 ($1.5785), MA-50 ($1.8412), and MA-200 ($2.4020), reflecting sustained bearish pressure across all timeframes.
Momentum indicators (MACD, ADX, Bull/Bear Power) confirm a strong bearish trend, although RSI and CCI suggest oversold conditions with potential short-term volatility.
For the next five days, XRP is expected to trade between support at $1.2700 and resistance near $1.5400, with less than 20% probability of further price gains.

Institutional inflows rise as spot ETF and ledger upgrade boost Ripple

Ripple has attracted increased institutional attention with Brazil's first spot XRP ETF appearing in major regulatory reports and steady ETF flows, reflecting ongoing demand. The XRP Ledger activated the XLS-85 token escrow upgrade, broadening institutional use cases and enabling native token escrow for stablecoin providers and issuers. Ripple continued ecosystem investments with $4 billion in acquisitions last year and further improved its institutional custody infrastructure, while interest in spot ETFs remains a secondary factor supporting its positioning in the crypto market.

Bearish momentum persists as indicators signal oversold yet volatile setup

Technical indicators on the weekly chart remain negative, with XRP below all major weekly moving averages and the Ichimoku Kijun at $1.5736 acting as near-term dynamic resistance. The MACD reinforces a strong sell bias, while the ADX indicates a robust bearish trend. Weekly RSI and Commodity Channel Index readings highlight oversold conditions, but a deep overbought Stochastic RSI creates a divergence suggesting short-term volatility. Bearish momentum dominates, as confirmed by negative Bull/Bear Power, with support seen below the current price.

Limited upside seen next week as bears control expected range

For the coming week, the baseline scenario expects XRP to consolidate within a range of $1.2700 to $1.5400, in line with current volatility. The likelihood of significant upward movement is low, with less than a 20% probability, as weekly technicals remain uniformly bearish. If bullish momentum emerges and the price breaks decisively above $1.5400, a retest of higher levels is possible. Conversely, a breakdown below $1.2700 may trigger deeper declines, given sellers’ prevailing control.

Previously it was reported that XRP is trading higher on the day but remains well below all key moving averages, with persistent bearish momentum confirmed by indicators such as MACD, RSI, and ADX, while the price hovers near recent highs amid moderate volatility. Technical risk points lower barring a clear breakout, with the asset expected to trade sideways within a defined range unless it breaches near-term resistance or support.
