XRP at Risk: Momentum Fades at $1.80, Breakdown Could Target $1.37
XRP is showing weakening bullish momentum around the critical $1.80 support level as consecutive rallies fail to overcome selling pressure. Technical structure remains bearish with lower highs intact, and bullish volume is notably absent during recovery attempts. A daily close below $1.80 would remove nearby structural support and increase the probability of a rapid capitulation move toward the next major liquidity zone near $1.37. Traders should watch for a confirmed hold above $1.80 accompanied by rising volume to validate any bullish reversal; otherwise downside risk and swift moves driven by stop-loss cascades are more likely.
Bearish
The article describes weakening bullish conviction around a key support ($1.80), persistent lower highs, and absent bullish volume — classic technical signs favoring downside continuation. Historically, assets that lose a major high-time-frame support on poor volume often experience accelerated declines as stop-loss clusters and liquidity zones are swept (a capitulation move). Short-term, traders face elevated risk of a fast drop to the next liquidity area (~$1.37) if $1.80 fails; volatility may spike and derivative funding rates could adjust as sellers accelerate. Long-term impact depends on whether buyers re-enter with conviction: a sustainable reversal requires a break of the bearish market structure (higher highs) and expanding buying volume. Absent those confirmations, the bias remains bearish and traders should prefer risk-defined short strategies or wait for clear confirmation before adding long exposure.
