Technical Analysis
XRP formed a clean ascending channel throughout the session, with a series of higher lows from $3.16 to $3.22. Resistance near $3.23 capped gains, but the strong bounce from $3.20 in the final hour showed momentum strength. Volume spikes of 2.11M at 20:02 and 1.97M at 20:08 confirmed institutional interest and accumulation patterns. XRP now needs to decisively break and hold above $3.23 to confirm a short-term bullish continuation.
