XRP isn't having its most exciting week, at least not at first glance. After slipping slightly to around $2.61, some traders started calling for a deeper pullback.
But according to analyst Cryptoinsightuk, that view might be missing the bigger picture. The charts suggest XRP price is holding up far better than many realize, especially when looking at the weekly and higher timeframes.
Right now, XRP liquidity profile is doing something unusual. There’s very little downside liquidity, meaning there aren’t many orders sitting below the current price. That doesn’t guarantee XRP won’t fluctuate, but it does suggest there’s not much room left for a major drop.
Instead, most of the liquidity is stacked above the current range, which often acts as a magnet for future price movement.
In simple terms, when exchanges and market makers start hunting for liquidity, they’ll likely push XRP price higher, not lower.
XRP Weekly Chart: Still Intact and Surprisingly Healthy
Despite recent volatility, the weekly chart doesn’t look nearly as weak as social media sentiment suggests. XRP price is holding above its key support levels, and the structure still shows a pattern of higher lows, a classic sign of accumulation.
The recent liquidation event that wiped out many leveraged traders wasn’t a real breakdown; it looks more like a healthy reset. Momentum still looks steady, and XRP is holding firm inside its long-term uptrend.
Furthermore, if you zoom out, the three-month chart tells an even clearer story. The broader structure still supports a continuation of the uptrend, with volume and RSI showing steady, healthy growth.
These higher timeframes carry more weight than short-term swings, and right now, they still point to underlying strength, not weakness.
As the analyst noted, this looks similar to past periods where XRP price consolidated before explosive moves. And with institutional catalysts, like the first U.S. XRP ETF crossing $100 million AUM and Ripple Prime’s launch, the foundation for another leg higher is stronger than ever.
On the daily timeframe, XRP touched the oversold zone on the RSI and bounced hard. The last time this setup appeared, XRP price went on a multi-week rally that surprised even the bulls.
That bounce, along with stronger liquidity coming back into the market, could be the spark that fuels XRP’s next move higher.
What’s Next For Ripple’s XRP?
The short-term noise around XRP doesn’t tell the full story. With no significant downside liquidity, healthy higher-timeframe structure, and a bullish RSI setup, XRP price looks like it’s setting the stage for a much larger breakout.
If the $2.45–$2.55 zone continues to hold, a push toward $3.00 and beyond could come sooner than expected. The next breakout may not just be another move up; it could be the one that finally gets everyone talking about XRP again.
