The XRP/BTC pair which had smashed its highs during the 2017 bull run is aching for a push that could nullify the current downtrend. Ever since the asset lunged hard in 2018, it maintained a silent trend. Despite a huge trading volume induced during the 2021 bull run, it hardly impacted the price then. Moreover, it maintained a notable downtrend after a decent spike. After multiple ups and downs, now the XRP/BTC price may enter a huge bearish trend rejecting the lower support levels.
Will the XRP/BTC price flip hit the lower levels or may further fall into a deep descending trend? Let’s see!

Summary
The XRP/BTC price is extremely bearish in both time horizons. While the RSI has slashed through the lower levels in HTF and STF, it is attempting to bounce back but failing each time. On the other hand MACD in the short term shows a decrease in the selling pressure and a buy signal is soon to be let out in the short term. Whereas in the long term, the MACD is extremely bearish with the trading volume reduced to a large extent.
On the other hand, the Average True Range which is a volatility indicator, shows extreme volatility in both the time frames which is pretty risky. And the Bull-Bear power is neutral in the short as well as long term which signifies equal strength of both bulls as well as bears.
Coming to the pivotal levels, the current price intends to hit the strong resistance at 200-day MA levels in HTF and STF both. However, the immediate resistance resides along with the 50-day MA levels which may ignite an uptrend towards the next levels and eventually actual resistance in the short term and later in the long term.
XRP/BTC Technical Analysis for the Week
The XRP/BTC trading pair began the 2022 trade after slashing nearly 15% and quickly fell into a consolidation phase. However, the fresh plunge dragged the price down by another 15% manifesting a strong downtrend. As mentioned earlier the XRP/BTC price is drowning in a deep bearish well and on the verge to smash the lower support levels. And hence a huge downtrend could be much awaited in the next couple of days.

- The short term chart of XRP/BTC is pretty bearish as the asset trends within a descending channel, yet the price is attempting to make a notable rebound
- Yet a more bearish trend is witnessed in the higher time frame as the asset is about to break down from a huge descending triangle.
- As it’s pretty close to the apex of the triangle a drastic move is quite possible which is usually towards the south
- If the lower support levels are broken, the asset could reach the immediate support levels ar 0.00001396 BTC and find new strong support
- A fair chance of a rebound can be expected at these levels then and also from the current levels which may not be strong
- However, after correction, the asset may eventually rise high to regain above current levels initially and eventually continue with an uptrend until it achieves 0.00001962 BTC

XRP/BTC Technical Analysis for Today: 31 January 2022
The XRP/BTC price has plunged hard through the past week and also began with the fresh week trade on a bearish note. With the monthly close on the horizon, if the asset fails to uplift above the danger zone and records a bearish close, the next month’s trade may also be impacted negatively. And hence if in case the asset receives a notable push with a little growth in the bullish momentum, then it may be used to recover the loss rather than igniting a bull run.
The XRP/BTC is priced at 0.00001584 BTC with a drop of 2.38% compared to the previous day’s close. However, the day’s range is between 0.00001568 and 0.00001631, and a daily close above or below these levels may record the monthly close accordingly.
