XRP entered the weekend near a major technical level after crypto analyst ChartNerd (@ChartNerdTA) pointed to signs of weakening momentum following the token’s recent rally toward $1.50. In a post on X, ChartNerd confirmed signs of weakness shortly after its recent rally.
The analyst attached a chart showing XRP trading inside a symmetrical triangle pattern that has developed since its lows in early February. The structure featured descending resistance near the top of the range and ascending support rising from the lows.

XRP Rally Lost Momentum After $1.50 Push
XRP climbed sharply after the Senate Banking Committee advanced the CLARITY Act, a bill to establish clearer rules for digital assets in the U.S. The move helped fuel momentum across the crypto market and pushed XRP toward the $1.50 region before the rally cooled.
The chart showed XRP recording lower highs while support gradually climbed higher over the past several months. That tightening range pushed price action toward the apex of the pattern near the end of May. However, the recent decline pushed it below the lower trendline of the symmetrical triangle, and this breakdown could signal continued bearish momentum.
$1.30 Remains the Critical Support Zone
XRP traded near $1.33 at the time of the chart, placing the asset slightly above the highlighted support zone around $1.30. The $1.30 region stands out as the key support level in ChartNerd’s analysis. XRP tested that area several times during the consolidation phase and continued to hold above it.
ChartNerd described the level as the “critical guardrail for relief” after the previous markup phase that carried XRP to its local high near $1.50. If XRP can sustain momentum above $1.30, it could prevent further decline as buyers attempt to push it back into the symmetrical triangle.

What’s Next for XRP?
The $1.50 region remains the main resistance zone on the chart. XRP approached that level multiple times but failed to secure a sustained breakout above descending resistance. Each rejection reinforced the importance of the upper trendline for short-term price direction.
The narrowing structure now places attention on whether XRP can maintain support as the price moves toward the convergence point between the trendlines. ChartNerd’s post arrived at the start of the weekend, and XRP has yet to make any significant upward move. However, it has held above $1.30, giving traders hope for its immediate future.
