Liquidity boost and institutional demand as Ripple buyback drives sentiment

Ripple launched a $750 million share buyback program that values the company at $50 billion, providing liquidity for early stakeholders and highlighting the company's strong financial standing. XRP remains an integral part of Ripple’s global payment efforts, supported by recent institutional partnerships and the launch of a government-licensed AUDD stablecoin on the XRP Ledger. Institutional interest is evident as Goldman Sachs has become the top holder of spot XRP ETFs, while tokenized real-world assets on the XRP Ledger have reached $461 million.

Downside momentum continues as resistance levels and oscillators diverge

Technical momentum signals for XRP remain negative on the daily timeframe, with the MACD providing a strong sell and ADX confirming a prevailing downside trend. Both RSI (46.25) and Stoch RSI are approaching overbought territory, while CCI is neutral, implying uncertain oscillator conditions and a possible divergence from recent price action. The Ichimoku Kijun level at $1.4707 serves as immediate resistance, and BBP suggests strong buyer presence intraday despite the mixed momentum environment, while the Awesome Oscillator stays neutral.

Downside risk grows as upside probabilities fall within range

For the week ahead, XRP is expected to trade between $1.39 and $1.60, consistent with current levels and typical volatility. The probability of further upside remains very low (less than 20%), making a downside scenario more likely in the short term. The base case envisions price action remaining rangebound within the $1.39–$1.60 band. A bullish break would require a close above the $1.47 resistance, while a move below $1.39 may prompt further declines, in line with persistent negative daily and weekly trend signals.

Anton Kharitonov, analyst at Traders Union, sees ongoing selling pressure on XRP despite recent positive news and institutional engagement. He notes that technical signals remain weak, with resistance at $1.47 capping upside and key momentum indicators still negative. The analyst remains cautious, viewing the $1.39 – $1.60 range as the most likely zone for price action in the near term. "Base case remains rangebound, and without a clear breakout above $1.47, downward risk dominates my tactical outlook."

Last time, analysts noted that XRP’s rebound lost momentum after testing resistance near key psychological levels, with the market now stabilizing above immediate support but lacking a decisive breakout. The broader trend remains cautious as price action hovers near support zones, while sentiment hinges on regaining critical resistance and macro factors such as U.S. inflation, Treasury yields, and ongoing policy uncertainty.
