Something unusual is happening with $XRP, according to an analyst. The coin has dropped over 60% since its 2025 peak, and online chatter shows sentiments are turning bearish. Arthur, CIO of RoyalPeakCap, claims his personal indicator has just crossed a critical threshold.
“$RED ALERT: Something unusual is happening on $XRP. My personal indicator just crossed above the black line. Historically, every time this happens, it is followed by an immediate explosive bullish move. But this time… price is still ranging,” he noted.

Arthur warns that the current sideways movement could be the worst possible scenario for this signal. If the price continues consolidating while the indicator cools toward neutral levels, momentum could reset and open the door to a sharp downward move.
Price Behavior Signals Potential Shift
$XRP has been falling for several weeks, with each bounce quickly pushed down by sellers. Lately, the price started to level out around $1.40, gathering just below a key resistance point, showing the market is pausing for now.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is slowly climbing even though $XRP’s price is staying flat. This could mean selling pressure is easing, and bigger players might be quietly buying.
$XRP also recently tested and briefly broke its downward trendline. While it didn’t spark a full rally, it suggests the selling momentum may be weakening. The analyst is keeping a close eye on the $1.45–$1.50 zone.
Hitting this level repeatedly could either push the price higher or give big traders a chance to sell into small gains. According to Arthur, the latter seems more likely, which could mean the price might face more weakness soon.
Market Outlook and Scenarios
If $XRP can’t push past its resistance, this sideways movement might just be a pause before another dip. The price could wobble up and down for a while before sliding lower. Analysts call this a “liquidity trap,” where things look calm enough to lure buyers, but a bigger drop could still be on the way
Right now, the $XRP market is at a crucial point, and traders and investors need to watch it closely. As of writing, according to CoinMarketCap, the token is trading at $1.44, having gone up 5% in the past day.
