$XRP is the odd one out, down 2.27% at $1.4148. Bull case: Reclaim $1.43, then watch $1.48 and $1.55. Bear case: Lose $1.38, and downside risk increases. My approach: Wait for confirmation instead of treating every red candle as a bargain.

$XRP XRP fell 6.23% over the past 24 hours to approximately $1.38, making it the biggest decliner among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. XRP had previously surged from around $1 on August 18 to $1.69, posting a remarkable gain in four days and briefly touching the psychological $1.70 threshold. The pullback was mainly caused by leveraged liquidations. XRP is still up 35.55% over the past week, second only to Hyperliquid’s 38.65% weekly gain. Notably, XRP-related ETFs have recorded net inflows for nine consecutive days, indicating that institutions have not withdrawn and that the issue lies mainly with leverage rather than capital outflows. Bitcoin retreated to around $78k after breaking above $80k on Tuesday, dragging altcoins broadly lower. The market is now awaiting tonight’s core PCE inflation data and Nvidia’s earnings report; whether XRP can hold the $1.40 support level will determine whether this rally is undergoing a healthy pullback or heading toward a further decline.

No operation, no analysis, all thanks to sheer luck—this track record is embarrassing even to talk about. Actually, it’s not that mysterious—while everyone was still watching from the sidelines, I noticed that the bottom was consolidating unusually cleanly. Several consecutive small-bodied candles failed to push much lower, clearly showing that someone was quietly accumulating. Once the pullback held, a rebound was inevitable. The direction I called was to go long; few dared to follow, and even fewer dared to wait. From 71294.4 to 79002, it surged straight to +1878.99%. Those who were on board should have woken up laughing. Waiting wasn’t for nothing, right? After grinding for so long, it gave plenty of time to get in; the hesitant could only watch others enjoy the big gains. Get the rhythm right, and don’t hesitate in execution: first close the position at +1878.99% to lock in most of the profit; raise the stop-loss on the remaining 20% to the entry price. If it keeps surging, let the profits run; if it pulls back, don’t give back all the gains already in hand. Panic comes from having no plan, and losses come from overthinking. Setting risk controls in advance is called rationality; cutting after a loss is called making a bold sacrifice. There will be more opportunities ahead. I’ll call the next shot in advance, but don’t chase this trade. Wait patiently for better news and a more solid entry point. $XRP $DOGE
