Technical Outlook: XRP Holding Key Base — Compression Before Expansion?

XRP continues to consolidate above the critical $1.40 support region after a prolonged downtrend. Price action is becoming increasingly compressed, suggesting the market is preparing for a larger directional move.
While the macro trend remains under pressure below higher EMAs, short-term structure is slowly improving as buyers defend demand zones and build higher lows.

20 EMA: $1.40

200 EMA: $1.72

20 EMA attempting bullish crossover over 50 EMA
100 EMA acting as immediate resistance
200 EMA remains major macro resistance
👉 XRP needs sustained strength above $1.50 to confirm bullish continuation
