XRP has been trading in a decline over the past few days alongside the broader cryptocurrency market. However, despite this lull, the XRP price has managed to maintain its critical support levels and is currently positioning itself for a potential recovery.
Interestingly, technical analysis highlights the $2.20 mark as a key level to watch for XRP going forward. This was noted in an analysis by popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez, who emphasized that XRP’s next major move could hinge on its outcome on this threshold.
Key Levels To Watch: $2.20 Support And $2.70 ResistanceThe cryptocurrency market has faced significant selling pressure since December 17 led by Bitcoin’s break below support levels, leading to notable price corrections across various cryptocurrencies. XRP, in particular, saw its price fall from $2.708 on December 17 to bottom at $1.98 on December 20. This represented a 27% in three days.
After it reached $1.98, the XRP price rebounded and regained the $2 price level. As it stands, XRP is now trading around $2.2, although it is still down by 7% in the weekly timeframe.
XRP’s movement around the $2.2 price level has captured the attention of crypto analyst Ali Martinez, who suggested two ways the cryptocurrency can go from here. According to Ali Martinez, XRP’s ability to hold above the $2.20 support is crucial for its short-term bullish outlook.
If this level remains intact, the token might enter a consolidation phase, but another attempt at the $2.70 resistance remains in play. From here, a strong bullish momentum above $2.7 could as well send the cryptocurrency above $3 for the first time in years. On the other hand, a break below $2.20 could trigger another quick XRP price decline toward $1.96 before it starts to attract fresh buying interest.

Whale Accumulation Up Amid Crypto Market CorrectionOn-chain data from Santiment suggests that XRP has captured the interest of whales during this recent downturn. Wallets holding between 1 million and 10 million XRP coins have accumulated an additional 80 million XRP since December 17, which points to strong confidence in the token’s long-term potential among whale addresses. This accumulation could provide a cushion against further declines below the $2 mark and set the stage for an eventual recovery.
Adding to the bullish outlook, technical analysis of the XRP price using Elliot impulse waves suggests that the recent crash below $2 might be the end of the second impluse wave, which is a corrective wave. With this in mind, bullish impulse wave 3 is expected to start anytime soon.
At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.27.
