XRP dominance holds key support as price falls 5.3%

XRP dominance tests crucial support

XRP dominance, tracked as XRP.D, measures XRP’s proportion of the total cryptocurrency market capitalization. Investors use this indicator to evaluate how XRP’s strength compares to other digital assets. Recently, XRP.D managed to hold just above a significant support area.

Glossary: Dominance refers to a cryptocurrency’s share within the total market cap. XRP.D specifically tracks this ratio for XRP, serving as a gauge of its relative market weight.

After briefly dipping below support, the area was quickly recovered as buyers defended the level. This support test was accompanied by a slight increase in trading volume, signaling rising market activity as price neared a key threshold.

XRP dominance remains just above critical support, while the weekly RSI indicator is showing a particularly tight range. According to the shared analysis, the RSI may produce a clearer directional signal by July.

This outlook suggests a growing expectation for price volatility. However, analysts caution that the current setup does not confirm a clear trend by itself, but rather highlights a sensitive technical picture closely watched by the market.

Continued pressure on XRP price

On the daily chart, XRP has lost about 5.3% following its latest decline, stabilizing near $1.1056. While the price previously approached the $3.00 to $3.50 range, it has lately been forming lower highs and lower lows.

In the short term, the first line of support is seen at $1.10. If a daily close happens below this level, the $1.00 mark may come into focus again. Continued selling pressure could bring the $0.85 to $0.90 area back onto traders’ radars as the next downside targets.

Any rebound attempts are likely to face resistance in the $1.25 to $1.35 zone. Analysts suggest that for XRP to break the current negative pattern, it would first need to reclaim this band and then establish support above $1.35.

What do RSI and MACD indicators show?

Technical indicators also point to the potential for further volatility. The daily RSI sits at roughly 19.4, indicating the market has moved into oversold territory. While oversold readings sometimes fuel brief rebounds, they do not alone guarantee a bottom is forming.

Glossary: RSI is a momentum indicator measuring the speed and strength of price moves. MACD uses short and long-term moving averages to analyze trend direction and momentum.

The MACD indicator on the same chart remains negative. With the MACD line below its signal line and the histogram in negative territory, downward momentum persists. As a result, the main focus remains on the contrast between XRP’s resilient dominance and continued spot price weakness.
