The daily candle opened at $1.3654 and hit a low of $1.3252. It now trades near $1.3300, down 2.59%.
Spot volume is $634.52 million. Futures volume is $3.10 billion, up 14.06%, while open interest slipped 0.86% to $3.01 billion.
Leverage is cooling too. CryptoQuant data shared by Arab Chain shows the Binance estimated leverage ratio fell from 0.229 in September to about 0.169. That is a 26.2% drop in under a month.
Fewer leveraged bets can mean fewer forced sales later. It can also mean traders feel less sure.
The 24-hour long/short ratio is 0.8262, so shorts hold a slight edge overall. Account ratios look different: 2.639 on Binance and 3.37 on OKX. Top Binance traders show 2.9063 by accounts and 2.1845 by positions.
The signals are mixed. Longs also took more pain in liquidations.

The daily chart shows a descending channel that began near the $1.66 high in September. Each bounce has made a lower high.
Price sits under all four moving averages: 20-day EMA $1.3686, 50-day $1.3743, 100-day $1.3371, and 200-day $1.3747. The RSI is 42.72, which is weak but not oversold.

Any XRP price prediction is a guess. A Ripple price prediction built on one chart can fail fast.
If buyers hold support and the coin closes above $1.37 to $1.40, a move toward $1.45 to $1.50 becomes possible. It would also need a break above the channel trendline.
If $1.30 to $1.28 fails, the next areas are $1.25 and $1.20.
Cooling leverage, ETF inflows, and lower hike odds are mild positives. Lower highs and weak momentum are the worry. The short-term view stays cautious.
