According to reports, XRP may be recovering in terms of price stability and positive sentiment, and this trend could continue if it can break through several critical technical levels.
XRP was created by the Ripple payment network as a digital currency intended for low-cost international money transmission. At press time, the coin is trading around $1.37, with an increase of about 1.19% over the past 24 hours.
Currently, XRP is trading at a key support level of approximately $1.35 on TradingView, where it had experienced previous strong holds of price. Given its recent price consolidation within a very narrow band and its indications of diminishing selling pressure, traders appear indecisive about whether they should buy or sell at this level.
If the buyers can keep the price above this support level, it will likely attempt to break out past this level toward the next resistance level. In contrast, if buyers cannot maintain their position at this critical support level, it is likely that the coin will experience some near-term downward price pressure.
Therefore, this support level must hold in order to determine how the new significant price movement will develop.

Ali Martinez has found that over the last week, whales have amassed roughly 190 million XRP, adding to growing confidence from these larger-scale investors. As such, this activity typically lends itself to a stable price for it and could also represent a build-up ahead of an upward price move.
The coin is at a relevant point where steady demand and tightening of prices portend decreased sell-off pressure. At this point, whale accumulation, as reported by Ali Martinez, furthers confidence in the likelihood of large holders accumulating during a consolidation phase.
If support holds for the coin, it will likely trade higher. If support does not hold, however, it will likely continue to trade sideways until a new long-term trend emerges.
