XRP Breaks Critical $1.08 Resistance, Setting the Stage for a Rally Toward $1.30
XRP has broken above the key $1.08 resistance level, clearing a barrier that had repeatedly stalled previous recovery attempts and reigniting bullish momentum. Market analyst Diana believes the breakout could mark the start of a stronger rally, with $1.30 emerging as the next major upside target.
According to Diana, reclaiming $1.08 has significantly strengthened XRP's four-hour chart structure. The top altcoin is now attempting to form a higher low followed by a higher high, a classic bullish pattern that often signals the transition from consolidation into a sustained uptrend. If bulls maintain control, the breakout could pave the way for further gains.
Before reaching $1.30, however, XRP must overcome several key resistance levels. The first lies between $1.145 and $1.15, where immediate selling pressure converges with a major long-term moving average. A decisive move above that range would reinforce bullish momentum and bring the psychological $1.20 level into focus.
Beyond that, the $1.29-$1.30 zone remains the most significant hurdle. This area has repeatedly rejected previous rallies, making it a crucial test for the current breakout. A clean move above $1.30 would confirm renewed strength and could set the stage for a broader upside expansion.
XRP Defends Key Support as Rising Trading Volume Fuels $1.30 Outlook
Diana also stressed that the most important confirmation has yet to come. Rather than simply pushing higher, XRP must successfully retest and hold the former $1.08 resistance as support during any pullback.
Turning resistance into support is widely viewed in technical analysis as one of the strongest signals that a breakout is sustainable.
In Diana's view, XRP's technical roadmap is unfolding in a clear sequence: defend the $1.00 support zone, reclaim the long-standing $1.08 resistance, and advance toward the critical $1.30 target.
Market data is also reinforcing the bullish outlook. XRP is trading at $1.11 per CoinCodex data, comfortably above the breakout level, while trading activity has surged.
On South Korea's Upbit exchange, 24-hour XRP trading volume reached roughly 113.18 million XRP, outpacing Bitcoin and highlighting growing investor interest. The increase in volume could provide the fuel needed for XRP to challenge its next major resistance levels.
The breakout also comes as XRP attempts to recover from one of its weakest long-term stretches in years with the monthly RSI already at the most oversold level in history.
After months of bearish sentiment, traders are closely watching whether the move above $1.08 marks the beginning of a sustained trend reversal, or another rally that fails to gain lasting momentum.
