XRP gained only 2% in the past week, signaling weak momentum and fading interest from buyers in the short term.Technical indicators like the RSI, Ichimoku Cloud, and EMA lines are all starting to reflect increased bearish pressure. Here’s a breakdown of what the charts are saying and what could come next for XRP.

XRP RSI Shows Buyers Are Losing Control

XRP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has declined to 46.34, a noticeable drop from 57.30 just one day ago. This sharp move suggests a clear shift in momentum, with buying pressure cooling off significantly in the short term.

When the RSI drops this quickly, it can often indicate that traders are taking profits or beginning to rotate out of a position, especially after a period of modest gains.

While XRP hasn’t entered oversold territory yet, the drop below the 50 mark is typically viewed as a bearish signal, pointing to a potential shift in sentiment from bullish to neutral or bearish.

The RSI, or Relative Strength Index, is a widely used technical indicator that helps traders gauge the strength of a price trend. It ranges from 0 to 100, with readings above 70 considered overbought and readings below 30 considered oversold.

When the RSI is above 50, momentum is typically bullish, while levels below 50 reflect increasing bearishness. With XRP now sitting at 46.34, it suggests the asset is losing upward momentum and may be at risk of further downside unless buying interest returns soon.

If selling pressure continues and RSI trends lower, XRP could test key support levels in the near future.

XRP Ichimoku Cloud Shows Momentum Is Shifting

XRP’s Ichimoku Cloud chart currently shows a shift toward short-term bearish momentum.

The price has fallen below both the blue Tenkan-sen (conversion line) and the red Kijun-sen (baseline), which is typically viewed as a bearish signal.

When the price trades beneath these two lines, it often suggests weakening momentum and increasing downside risk unless a quick recovery follows.

Additionally, the price is now entering the green cloud (Kumo), which represents a zone of uncertainty or consolidation. The cloud ahead is relatively flat and wide, indicating potential support but also a lack of strong upward momentum.

The green Senkou Span A (leading span A) remains above the red Senkou Span B (leading span B), signaling that the broader trend is still slightly bullish—but if price action stays inside or breaks below the cloud, that trend may begin to reverse.

Overall, the Ichimoku setup points to caution for bulls unless XRP reclaims the Tenkan and Kijun lines convincingly.

EMA Lines Suggest XRP Could Fall Below $2

XRP’s EMA lines are showing signs of weakness, with XRP price repeatedly failing to break through the resistance near $2.17—even amid speculation about a potential partnership with Swift.

This repeated rejection at the same level indicates strong selling pressure. The EMAs suggest momentum is fading as the shorter-term average is beginning to bend downward.

A potential death cross, where the short-term EMA crosses below the long-term EMA, appears to be forming. If confirmed, it could signal a deeper correction ahead, with XRP possibly retesting support levels at $2.02 and $1.96.

A breakdown below these levels could lead to a drop toward $1.61. However, if bulls manage to reclaim $2.17, the next resistance at $2.24 becomes the key target.

A clean break above that could trigger a stronger rally, potentially pushing XRP to $2.35 or even $2.50 if momentum accelerates.

PEPE’s price action has been relatively quiet in the past few weeks. The meme coin has been quietly going through a continued wave of selloffs amidst the volatility in the wider crypto market. 

However, an interesting technical analysis shows that the chart structure of PEPEUSDT is pointing to a massive move to the upside, one that could send the token soaring by as much as 796% before the end of 2025. As the broader crypto market continues to move sideways, crypto analyst MasterAnanda identified a short-term higher low forming around support levels, which could act as the launchpad for a major PEPE price breakout.

Short-Term Higher Low Points To Strong Accumulation Zone

The bullish outlook on PEPE is based on the repeat of a similar price formation that played out in 2024 before its run to new price highs and eventually its current all-time high of $0.00002803. According to the price chart shared by the analyst on the TradingView platform, PEPE initially traded in a descending channel between May to September 2024 before eventually breaking out of the channel. After breaking out of the channel, PEPE went on a brief uptrend and another downside which led to the creation of a lower low, before eventually going on an extended rally that peaked in December 2024.

Notably, it seems the same structure is showing up again on the PEPE price chart, specifically on the daily candlestick timeframe. In the analysis, MasterAnanda marks April as the period where PEPE bottomed out within a descending channel. Since then, two distinct highs and two clear lows have shaped what appears to be a reversal structure. 

Most notably, a new higher low is beginning to form a pattern that, according to previous price action, could precede a bullish wave. The analyst labels this as a important stage, especially for spot traders who are positioning for long-term growth. Although there could be weakness in the short term, which could result in one last shakeout or another downside wick, the analyst noted that this shouldn’t worry spot investors.

It may offer a final opportunity to accumulate before momentum builds toward a new cycle high. On the other hand, leveraged traders are advised to proceed with caution and risk management, given the potential volatility during the build-up to the breakout.

Fibonacci Levels Show 480% To 796% Rally Target

The chart highlights a significant confluence around Fibonacci extension levels, with the 1.618 Fib level suggesting a possible 480% move and the more ambitious 2.618 extension pointing to a 796% upside. Interestingly, MasterAnanda noted that the numbers are huge.

Although these targets are just projections, they align with the previous rally seen in late 2024. If this prediction structure holds, the next rally could push PEPE beyond the 1.618 Fib level at $0.0004264, surpassing all prior highs and printing a new all-time high in 2025.

At the time of writing, PEPE is trading at $0.00000708, down by 4.7% in the past 24 hours.
