XRP has reached an important point after several sessions of sideways trading. The 1-hour chart shows price falling from the $1.50 to $1.53 region toward $1.44, with the latest candle reaching $1.403. That move brings the recent $1.40 wick into focus.
Cryptoinsightuk’s preferred scenario calls for XRP to sweep that low before dropping further. The key part of the setup comes after the sweep, when momentum could begin to diverge from price movement.
With how ripple:native PA is developing, we could get this.
This would be my perfect long scenario here in the short term.
A complete hourly RSI reset, going into the oversold area as we come down and sweep the wick we've just put in at $1.40.
We then continue lower, but the… https://t.co/OM9QKRc7qZ pic.twitter.com/SdcLXunl7V

RSI Could Reset Into Oversold
The 1-hour RSI currently sits around 34, while its moving average sits near 43. The indicator has already weakened significantly from the higher levels seen during XRP’s earlier rally.
Cryptoinsightuk expects a complete RSI reset into oversold territory. His projected path shows RSI falling toward the low-20s before recovering. At the same time, XRP could continue making lower lows.
That creates the bullish divergence he wants to see. Price would establish a lower low while RSI forms a higher low. This would signal improving momentum beneath continued price weakness.
$1.35 Is the Main Liquidity Target
The second chart proposes sweeping a clear location. The volume profile shows substantial activity around $1.35, with $1.348 marked as a major level. XRP currently sits above that area, while $1.40 provides the first nearby liquidity point.
A move through $1.40 toward $1.35 would therefore fit the scenario shown in the charts. The price action could test that liquidity while RSI begins forming the higher low highlighted in the post.
The same chart also marks $1.528 as major resistance. After XRP’s surge of over 50%, it fell toward this level and has repeatedly retested it during the consolidation.

Open Interest Adds Another Signal
The 15-minute Binance Futures chart adds useful context. XRP has weakened toward $1.43 while aggregated open interest has also declined. Coin open interest has fallen to about 769 million, while dollar open interest sits near $1.105 billion.
Funding remains positive at 0.0049%. The decline in open interest alongside the price move suggests that positions have been coming out of the market as XRP falls.
Cryptoinsightuk’s projected path then shows a recovery from the lower liquidity area toward $1.53. A move back above $1.43 would provide the first sign that the proposed recovery is developing. A break through $1.528 would become the larger confirmation, opening the way toward higher levels.
