<p>However, as XRP closed its one-hour candle above the consolidation zone, traders built large positions on the long side, believing that the XRP rally would continue. Later, however, the XRP price reversed sharply, resulting in the liquidation of $241,700 worth of long positions.</p>

<p>At press time, XRP is trading near $0.597 and has experienced a price surge of over 1.75% in the last 24 hours. During the same period, its trading volume dropped by 24%, indicating lower participation from traders and investors.</p>  
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-xrp-technical-analysis-and-upcoming-levels"><strong>XRP Technical Analysis and Upcoming Levels</strong></h2>  
<p>According to expert technical analysis, XRP is in an uptrend and consolidating in a very tight range. If it breaks out of the consolation zone and closes a daily candle above that zone, there is a strong possibility that the <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/xrp-price-predictions-for-2025-what-happens-if-bitcoin-surges-to-150k/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP price</a> could soar by 10% to reach the $0.65 level. On the other hand, if XRP fails to close the daily candle above that zone, it will continue to struggle within the zone.</p>
