XRP (CRYPTO:XRP) has swung wildly over the past week, hitting a high of $1.66 before pulling back to $1.44-$1.50, and then the broader market downturn pushed it to $1.39 today. Despite the downturn, XRP has posted a 31% gain so far in August.
With less than 24 hours left in the month, buyers and sellers are battling for control, with XRP facing the pivotal $1.30 support level.
How Low Could XRP Fall If $1.30 Support Breaks?
XRP's fall toward the $1.30 support level suggests the coin is already trading near the lower end of its recent volatility range. A break below this level could signal unusually strong selling pressure and increase the risk of a deeper decline.
The first level to watch below $1.30 is $1.29, which marks a pivotal second support point. Buyers could step in around this area and slow down the decline, but failure to hold it would shift attention to the stronger $1.25 support zone.
The $1.25 level aligns with a 38.2% Fibonacci retracement based on XRP's four-week and 13-week low at $0.9873. This makes it an important area where buyers and sellers may battle for control. If XRP loses $1.25, selling pressure could push the price toward $1.22, representing a 12.2% decline from current levels.
Below $1.22, XRP could move toward $1.20, which marks its 14-3 day raw stochastic at 30% and suggests the asset is approaching the lower end of its recent range without yet reaching oversold conditions. As a result, the $1.20 level could attract fresh buying interest and help XRP preserve some of the gains from the recent rally.
However, if sellers push XRP below $1.20, the next key level could be $1.17, which would take XRP below its 18-day moving average, further suggesting short-term momentum is weakening. If selling pressure continues below these levels, the risk of a deeper decline toward the $1.07 to $1 range would increase. The $1 level would be particularly important because it represents a major psychological support level and could become a key point where investors decide to buy or sell.
