$XRP 24h is up 0.61% at 1.4091. Gate perpetuals’ 24-hour high is 1.4122 and low is 1.3736, with a range of about 2.8% and 24-hour trading volume of around 149 million U. BTC is up 0.38% (around 82840), while ETH is down 0.26%. XRP is simply moving with the broader market, with no independent trend.
Market action: It dipped to the daily low of 1.3736 at 22:00 last night, then traded sideways in a narrow 1.38–1.395 range overnight, with hourly volume shrinking to 3–6 million U. This morning, hourly volume rose to around 7–8.4 million U between 08:00 and 10:00, and the price broke above 1.40. It surged to the daily high of 1.4122 at 13:00 but failed to hold there. Volume fell to around 5.4 million U at 15:00 and 3.6 million U at 16:00. The price is now hovering near 1.409.
Reason: The funding rate is +0.0038% (8h), and leverage has not piled in. This move was driven by spot buying, not a squeeze of aggressive longs. But volume has steadily declined since 13:00, and the 1.41–1.4122 area has acted as resistance several times. Without fresh inflows, a pullback is likely.
Conclusion: Don’t chase longs unless price holds above 1.4122 on increased volume. If it pulls back to 1.403–1.405 and holds, a small long position could be considered, with a stop at 1.397 and a target of 1.4122; if it holds above that level, the next target is 1.43. A drop back below 1.397 would mean the breakout was false, so close any long positions immediately.
