XRP's recent rebound has reversed, pushing the price toward $1.28 as bearish technical signals persist.

XRP's recent rebound has reversed, pushing the price toward $1.28 as bearish technical signals persist. XRP (XRP) is trading at ₹121 ($1.27). This is an original Token Times brief based on reporting by CryptoPotato, with live market data added, as of Sat, 24 Oct 2026 16:45:01 UTC.

Why it matters

The rejection at the descending resistance level indicates continued bearish momentum, potentially leading to further downside if buyers fail to regain control.

Key takeaways
  • XRP rejected at descending resistance, maintaining bearish structure.
  • Price dropped to $1.27, nearing key demand zone around $1.25.
  • Bearish pressure persists despite recent recovery attempts.

XRP's recent price recovery has been met with strong resistance, causing the cryptocurrency to reverse course and decline toward the $1.28 level.

The rejection occurred at a descending resistance trendline, which has been a significant barrier for XRP in recent weeks.

This development maintains the bearish technical structure, as noted by CryptoPotato, indicating that buyers have yet to establish a strong enough foothold to reverse the downward trend.

The price action is occurring within a broader descending channel on the daily timeframe, suggesting that the short-term outlook remains weak.

XRP is currently trading at $1.27, representing a 2.85% decline over the past 24 hours and a 1.90% drop over the past week. The cryptocurrency's market cap stands at $80.32 billion.
