XRP fails to break above $1.80, risks drop to $1.20–$1.30

XRP can’t reclaim $1.80 since January. The level flipped to resistance and caps any recovery.

Sjuul from AltCryptoGems calls XRP “in deep trouble” while it stays below $1.80. He highlights a clear downtrend with lower highs and lows on the daily chart, and a “no support zone” below current prices. Source: Sjuul’s post on X.

In 2025, XRP traded in a broad channel. Ceiling near $3.45. Floor around $1.80. Even after a $3.60 peak in July 2025, the floor held. In January 2026, it broke and closed below $1.80. Since then, every bounce stopped under that level. Chart: Sjuul’s chart.

A mid‑March rebound added 15% in eight days. Price reclaimed $1.50 and closed at $1.54 on March 16. The move stalled at $1.6074. Three red days followed, with price near $1.46. Context: price hit $1.27 on February 28 during the Israel–Iran shock, then rebounded. Chart evidence in the same thread.

Two paths, one number:
- Break back above $1.80 and reenter the channel. Bearish setup invalidates. Source: Sjuul’s post
- Fail at $1.80. Risk grows toward $1.20–$1.30, a prior “no support zone” from the November 2024 blast. Source: Sjuul’s post
