XRP rises 3.26% this week

Highlights

XRP remains in a bearish trend, trading below key moving averages with both medium and long-term pressures dominating.
Momentum signals—including MACD, ADX, and negative oscillator readings—indicate sellers control and the market is nearing oversold conditions.
Expect XRP to consolidate within a $0.95–$1.17 range next week, with a low probability of a sustained upward breakout.

Institutional adoption and regulatory strides drive XRP Ledger momentum this week

Ripple secured approval for a Crypto Asset Service Provider license from Luxembourg's regulator, enabling full compliance with the EU's MiCA regulation and expanding regulated services to all 30 EEA countries. Institutional use of XRP is increasing, highlighted by a cross-border tokenized treasury settlement on the XRP Ledger with JPMorgan, Mastercard, Ondo Finance, and Ripple, and nearly $4 billion in tokenized real-world assets now tracked on the network. Additional momentum comes from a surge in RLUSD stablecoin supply and major integrations such as Nuvion, as well as SBI Group's ongoing institutional product initiatives in Japan. The XRP Ledger is also nearing activation of the v3.2.0 protocol upgrade with more than 55% validator support.

Strengthening bearish momentum confirmed by weekly indicators and resistance levels

On the weekly (W1) chart, XRP remains under its MA-20 ($1.3033), MA-50 ($1.9274), and MA-200 ($1.2091), reinforcing strong downward pressure with dynamic resistance at MA-20 and MA-200. Support is found near $0.95, with resistance at $1.17 based on recent weekly structure and volatility. Weekly momentum indicators are negative: MACD and ADX confirm strengthening bearish momentum, while RSI and CCI signal proximity to oversold territory. Stochastic RSI is neutral near its midpoint, and Bull/Bear Power stays negative, indicating sellers retain control.

Rangebound outlook for next week amid persistent downside and elevated volatility

For the next 7 days, the baseline scenario is for XRP to consolidate between $0.95 and $1.17, reflecting ongoing bearish momentum and lack of clear buy signals on key weekly indicators. There is less than a 20% probability of a sustained upside move, as RSI, ADX, MACD, and CCI all favor the bears. If XRP closes above $1.17, a short-term recovery could target higher resistance, but a break below $0.95 likely signals a new move toward yearly lows. Volatility is expected to remain elevated, supporting a rangebound outlook.

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, observes that XRP spent the week under significant technical pressure, closing well below key moving averages and signaling a continued bearish environment. He notes that several strong institutional catalysts and regulatory milestones sparked improved sentiment, but these failed to produce a decisive shift in price action. The analyst sees support near $0.95 and resistance at $1.17, with volatility likely to keep price action rangebound as momentum indicators remain negative. Turakhiya believes that only a close above $1.17 would meaningfully alter the short-term outlook, while a breakdown below $0.95 could trigger renewed selling toward yearly lows. "With momentum still in favor of the bears and no clear buy signals on the weekly frame, I expect XRP to consolidate between $0.95 and $1.17 in the coming week."

Earlier, analysts noted that XRP was under sustained selling pressure despite expanding regulatory approvals and growing institutional utility. The latest developments reinforce the bearish outlook, with traders advised to monitor the $1.17 resistance and $0.95 support levels as elevated volatility keeps XRP vulnerable to renewed downside risk over the coming week.
