XRP is attracting serious technical attention at current price levels. Trader and market commentator Xaif (@Xaif_Crypto) noted that XRP is “knocking on the door of a major supply zone.”
The asset trades around $1.49, pressing directly into overhead resistance that has defined the range since August. How the price reacts here carries significant weight for the near-term outlook.
Supply Zone Resistance Dominates the Chart
The 4-hour chart on Bybit shows two prominent red supply zones sitting above the current price. The first spans roughly $1.55 to $1.70. The second, larger zone sits higher, extending from approximately $1.83 to $1.95. Both zones represent areas where sellers have historically overwhelmed buyers, producing sharp price rejection.
Below the current price, green demand zones cluster between approximately $1.25 and $1.35. XRP tested these levels in mid-September before bouncing sharply back toward $1.49. That recovery covered meaningful ground and brought XRP back into contact with the first supply zone.

The $1.55 Level is the Deciding Factor
Xaif’s analysis centers on one specific condition. “Break and hold above $1.55,” he wrote, “and the path opens toward $1.70.” A confirmed close above a supply zone shifts it from resistance to support, opening the next level as the target. The $1.70 area marks the upper boundary of that first red zone on the chart.
Price Structure Since August
The chart covers price action stretching back to late July. XRP posted a sharp vertical move in August, rising from lows near $0.98 to approximately $1.68 in a short period. That rally stopped just under $1.70, which aligns precisely with the upper boundary of the first supply zone. Since then, the asset has consolidated between the demand zones below and the supply zones above.

Each test of the lower green demand zone produced a recovery. The current rally represents the most sustained push back toward upper resistance since that initial August move. The $1.55 level has emerged as the critical pivot within this structure.
The Level to Watch
The setup is clear. XRP needs to close and hold above $1.55 to confirm a breakout toward $1.70. The August high near $1.68 reinforces that level as a natural target. The supply zones above have recorded price movements since August. A confirmed break changes that.
Until then, the technical structure keeps resistance in place and $1.55 as the number every XRP trader is watching.
