  • XRP is trading at $2.36 and has declined by 2.6 percent in the week, and is evident in a falling wedge structure with trendlines.
  • The token is holding at $2.20 and is having resistance at $2.36 and this is a narrow range within which prices are moving in a narrow margin.
  • Analysts compared the current chart to 2017’s structure, which preceded a historical 13,000% rally.

XRP’s market structure reflected renewed technical compression over the past week, forming a falling wedge pattern on the daily timeframe. The token is currently trading at $2.36 with a 2.6% decline per week. This small hiccup notwithstanding, short term momentum has seen some stabilization with intraday statistics showing a 2.07% recovery. The converging trendlines of the pattern also indicate a narrow band between the set support and resistance levels.

The lower boundary near $2.20 continues to function as a stable support area. Several recent sessions have shown price rejection at this level, underscoring the presence of consistent buying interest. On the upper side, resistance remains fixed at $2.36, where repeated pullbacks have limited upward extensions. This setup defines a narrow trading corridor, allowing market participants to assess liquidity behavior within a confined range.

Technical Formation Reflects Measured Consolidation

The observed wedge structure demonstrates progressive compression as volatility decreases across shorter intervals. Market volume has followed a similar pattern, suggesting a temporary equilibrium between buyers and sellers. Although price action remains below prior local highs, the tightening configuration implies gradual accumulation within a controlled zone.

Interestingly, the performance of the token against the Bitcoin at the level of 0.00002205 BTC represents a slight gain of 2.7, which indicates a particular achievement within the framework of cross-market operations. Market data further indicates that XRP’s near-term movement remains dependent on its ability to preserve the lower support base. Each rebound from this level reinforces its relevance as a reaction zone where liquidity clusters remain concentrated.

Analyst Notes XRP’s 2017 Pattern Similarities

According to market analyst Steph_iscrypto, XRP’s current weekly chart structure bears resemblance to the 2017 setup that preceded a 13,000% appreciation. Historical comparison emphasizes the importance of pattern behavior during compressed phases. The analyst highlighted that both setups featured a steep corrective wave followed by range-bound consolidation.

For now, XRP remains within the $2.20–$2.36 boundary, maintaining a controlled structure defined by converging trendlines. The next sessions are expected to determine whether momentum will continue stabilizing within the ongoing wedge formation.
