$XRP printed 1.389 today, its weakest level since September 21, and has now lost 8.6% from the 1.52 it held on October 4.

Live numbers:
Price: 1.4177 USD
24h: -2.4%, high 1.4296, low 1.389
7d: -4.8%
30d: +2.0%
Market cap: 89.39B USD, rank 5
24h volume: 2.47B USD

The break came yesterday: price opened at 1.497 and closed at 1.4215 after touching 1.4067, the first real move after two weeks of compression. Today extended it to 1.389 without a bounce.

Volume tells the sequence. Yesterday's session did 239M USD on the main USDT pair, the heaviest in a week, against a 249M average over the previous 30 days. Today is running at 77M so far, so the selling pressure came in one burst rather than building.

Where it sits: 1.2468 is the 30 day low, 1.6581 the 30 day high. Price is in the lower third of that band.

Levels. Below price: 1.389, today's low, then 1.2468. Above price: 1.4296, then 1.45.
