XRP Coils Under Key Resistance—Here’s When the Price May Trigger a Breakout

The crypto markets opened the day’s trade, maintaining a range-bound consolidation as the Bitcoin price remains stuck below the newly formed resistance at $92,800. Ethereum and XRP have been displaying immense strength for a period, and hence, it is believed the next bullish wave will begin in a short while. XRP price, specifically, stands out among them, holding its recent rebound and preserving a constructive structure even as the broader market momentum cools. 

XRP Maintains a Strong Intraday Structure

Over the past 24 hours, the XRP price has formed a clean bullish pattern on the lower timeframes. Buyers pushed the price off weekend lows and have since defended every dip, keeping XRP in a gradually rising structure. Importantly, the market has seen multiple extended Wave 5 pushes on each rally attempt—a sign of continued strength rather than exhaustion.

The $2.02–$2.03 area has repeatedly held as support, creating a clear invalidation level for short-term bulls. As long as XRP trades above it, the momentum bias remains to the upside.

XRP price is now consolidating directly under $2.04, a level that has rejected several intraday attempts to break higher. Price compression beneath a horizontal resistance often precedes a decisive expansion, and the chart reflects that momentum is slowly building for such a move. A confirmed breakout above $2.04, ideally followed by a retest, could trigger upside continuation.

Short-term upside targets include $2.055, which is the nearest liquidity pocket and $2.07–$2.08, the measured wave extension zone. A stronger impulsive leg could even stretch toward $2.10, depending on market strength. A rejection at this level does not break the bullish narrative unless XRP price loses $2.02. Below that, momentum would shift, opening a move toward $2.00. But for now, buyers are defending the range effectively.

What’s Next for the XRP Price?

XRP price continues to trade like a market preparing for a breakout. Higher lows, supportive wave structure, and steady demand all point toward bullish continuation—but the confirmation lies at $2.04. Once the bulls clear this barrier, momentum could accelerate quickly. Until then, XRP remains coiled—with the advantage still on the side of the buyers.
