XRP Death Cross Is Complete: Next Price Levels

$XRP has formed a death cross on the daily chart. The 50-day average has slipped below the 200-day average near $1.37, a pattern investors often read as a sign of weak momentum. $XRP trades at $1.30, well beneath both lines, and the price remains under pressure.

The damage is clear in the numbers. $XRP is down approximately 15% over 30 days, 29% since the start of the year, and 48% over the last year. The last bounce failed near $1.40, where several moving averages now sit close together and act as a wall. The 100-day average near $1.33 has also become resistance.

$XRP Key Levels and Derivatives

Volume tells a similar story. Trading activity has dropped sharply since the big surge in August, which means buyers are not showing strong interest right now. The RSI sits near 40, so $XRP is weak but not yet oversold, and there is room to fall before a bounce becomes likely.

The first support is $1.25, the latest low where buyers stepped in twice. A daily close below it would open the way to $1.20 and then $1.15. If selling gets heavier, the next big area is $1.00, the round level that held the price in August.

Key level to capture

On the upside, $XRP needs to reclaim $1.33 first. Above that, $1.37 to $1.40 is the key zone. A clean close above it would weaken the death cross signal and could send the price toward $1.50, then $1.65, the October high.

Derivatives data are mixed. Long-to-short ratios on Binance and OKX are above 3, which means most accounts are betting on a rise. That can be risky in a downtrend, because crowded longs often get flushed out.

In the past 24 hours, longs made up most of the $7.25 million in liquidations. Futures flows also show net outflows over the past 4 to 8 hours.

For now, the trend favors sellers. Bulls need a strong close above $1.40 to change that. Until then, $1.25 is the level to watch.
