Currently, XRP is holding around the $2.80 level, where technical indicators suggest a fragile balance. To this end, according to cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez, the token is now supported by a crucial level at $2.74. Martinez noted that XRP has formed a descending triangle pattern, with repeated rejections along a downward trendline and progressively lower highs signaling persistent bearish sentiment.

The 50-day Simple Moving Average ( SMA ) stands at $3.09, placing the current price below this level and pointing to short-term weakness. By contrast, the 200-day SMA at $2.48 suggests a broader upward trend, with XRP still trading above it. The 14-day Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) stands at 45.16, indicating neutral territory, neither overbought nor oversold. However, its proximity to the lower end hints at the need for caution.
