XRP Price Prediction For February 6

Published by

The price of XRP continued to move lower this week, extending its corrective phase after breaking below a consolidation pattern and reflecting broader weakness across the cryptocurrency market.

XRP has fallen about 12% in a short period, with chart-based projections placing the next important price region between $1.36 and $1.21, where the decline could begin to slow if buying demand strengthens.

Decline follows break below consolidation range

The latest downward move accelerated after XRP dropped below a triangular consolidation pattern that had held prices steady for several sessions. Once the lower boundary of that range was breached, selling intensified and prices moved rapidly toward lower technical projections.

Analysts describe the current move as part of a broader corrective cycle within the longer-term trend, in which a rapid final phase of selling typically follows the completion of earlier consolidation waves.

Retracement levels define the next trading range

Technical projections based on earlier price swings place potential stabilization zones near $1.36, $1.29, and $1.21. The $1.21 area corresponds roughly to a 50% retracement of the previous upward rally, a region where declines often begin to slow as longer-term investors re-enter the market.

If prices fall below that band, the correction could extend toward lower historical trading ranges, with some analysts pointing to significantly lower retracement zones as alternative scenarios depending on overall crypto market sentiment.

Recovery requires reclaiming earlier range

For a sustained recovery to develop, XRP would need to move back above approximately $1.64, which marked the upper boundary of the earlier consolidation zone. A move above that level would indicate that downward momentum is easing and that a more stable price base is forming.

Broader market conditions remain the main driver

The current XRP decline has taken place alongside a wider digital-asset downturn, in which Bitcoin, Ethereum and other major cryptocurrencies have also experienced steep losses. 

Analysts say XRP’s direction in the near term is likely to remain closely linked to the broader crypto market environment, including institutional flows, leverage reductions and overall investor sentiment.

Until a clear reversal develops, XRP is expected to remain within a corrective phase characterized by sharp short-term fluctuations and gradual attempts to stabilize near major retracement regions.
