XRP Price: Sentiment Crashes to 8-Month Low — Is a Rally Coming?

TLDR

• XRP is trading above $1.18, with the key resistance zone sitting at $1.20
• A W-shaped recovery pattern is forming on the four-hour chart, but it is not yet confirmed
• Analyst Ali Charts is watching a symmetrical triangle that could trigger a 14% move on a breakout
• XRP sentiment has dropped to its lowest point since October 2025, according to Santiment data
• The critical support level to hold is $1.13 on the weekly chart, with $0.90–$1.00 below that

XRP is holding above $1.18 after a push toward $1.1926, but the bulls have not yet cleared the key $1.20 resistance level. The price moved up from a swing low of $1.0879 and is now in a consolidation phase. Whether the rally continues depends on what happens next at $1.20.

On the four-hour chart, XRP is attempting to form a W-shaped recovery pattern. Bitcoin has already completed and confirmed this same pattern. XRP has not. The pattern only becomes valid if the price breaks and holds above $1.18, which is the resistance sitting at the top of the structure.

Crypto analyst Ali Charts is watching a symmetrical triangle forming on XRP’s chart. According to Ali, a breakout from this pattern could trigger a 14% price move. The direction of that move depends on which way the triangle resolves.

Sentiment At 8-Month Lows

Analytics platform Santiment reported that XRP’s weighted sentiment has dropped to its lowest level since October 2025. Their metric combines social volume with the ratio of positive to negative commentary. Santiment noted that traders appear fatigued by the lack of a major catalyst, despite ongoing narratives around Ripple’s legal clarity and institutional adoption.

Santiment also pointed out that some of XRP’s strongest past rebounds have occurred when crowd sentiment was at its lowest. They noted that development activity on the XRP Ledger and tokenization initiatives are continuing even as social media enthusiasm fades.

Key Levels To Watch

If XRP clears $1.20, the next targets are $1.2150 and $1.2220, with $1.2250 as the next major hurdle.

On the downside, initial support is at $1.1680, followed by $1.1550. A close below $1.1550 would put $1.1400 and then $1.1280 in focus.

The weekly chart shows $1.13 as critical support through the current bear market. A confirmed break below $1.13 would open the door to $0.90–$1.00. Below that, analysts are watching the $0.70 level.

XRP is currently underperforming Bitcoin, with altcoins broadly tracking Bitcoin’s direction but with slightly weaker results. Any recovery in XRP depends first on Bitcoin maintaining its own rebound.

The price is trading above the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average with a bullish trend line forming on the hourly chart, with support at $1.1400.
