Expert Says XRP Is At Decision Point, Sets New Price Target
XRP is approaching a crucial technical level that could determine its next short-term direction, according to financial expert Levi Rietveld.
The analyst, in a tweet, highlighted a key resistance zone that traders are closely monitoring as XRP attempts to build momentum following a rebound from recent lows.
Levi noted that XRP is currently trading around $1.15 after successfully bouncing from the $1.12 support area. While the recovery has provided some optimism for bulls, Rietveld emphasized that the market has now reached a “decision point,” where price action will likely dictate the next significant move.
Accompanying his analysis was a chart showing XRP recovering from support near $1.12 while approaching resistance around $1.1787. The chart also outlined a potential bullish scenario in which XRP could continue higher if buyers manage to regain control of the market.
$XRP Is At A Decision Point 🚨
XRP is currently trading around $1.15 after bouncing from the $1.12 support zone.
If bulls can reclaim and close above $1.1787 on the 4H timeframe, a move toward $1.19–$1.20 becomes increasingly likely, with $1.29 standing as the next major…

The Importance of the $1.1787 Resistance Level
According to Rietveld, the most important level for XRP traders to watch is $1.1787 on the four-hour timeframe. He explained that a successful reclaim of this level, followed by a confirmed close above it, would strengthen the bullish case for XRP.
He added that if bulls can reclaim and close above $1.1787 on the four-hour chart, “a move toward $1.19–$1.20 becomes increasingly likely, with $1.29 standing as the next major target.”
The chart shared by the analyst illustrates this outlook, showing a projected move toward the $1.19 to $1.20 range before a potential attempt to challenge higher resistance levels. The $1.29 area appears as the next major barrier should bullish momentum continue to build.
At the same time, the chart also highlights downside risk. XRP would need to maintain support above the recent lows to avoid invalidating the bullish setup outlined by Rietveld.
Community Watches for Confirmation
Several market participants responded to the analysis by focusing on the significance of the recent support bounce and the $1.1787 level.
Crypto community member Macro Bombastic noted that the $1.12 support zone had performed well during the recent decline. He stated that traders are now waiting to see whether XRP can break above $1.18 convincingly or if another failed breakout attempt emerges.
Meanwhile, crypto commentator Nepentia said attention remains fixed on the $1.1787 threshold. According to Nepentia, a successful conversion of that resistance level into support could open the door for a stronger expansion phase in XRP’s price action.
For now, Rietveld maintains that the market is at a pivotal moment. With support holding near $1.12 and resistance sitting at $1.1787, XRP traders are looking for confirmation of the next move.

After Toshiba reported news of HDD production expansion, Morgan Stanley turned more bullish rather than bearish.
Morgan Stanley’s research indicates that the market has seriously overestimated Toshiba’s expansion scale — the doubling of capacity at its Philippines plant over two years translates to an annualized growth rate of about 30%, which is similar to the overall industry supply growth rate and far lower than demand growth. More importantly, channel checks show that Seagate and Western Digital have no intention of following suit with capacity expansion, and there are no signs of loosening in industry pricing.

Published exclusively on Dow Jones Newswires at 4:20 ET, 12:20 ET and 16:50 ET. 0637 GMT - SK Innovation is likely to benefit from higher lubricant base oil prices, LS Securities analyst K.H. Chung says. The South Korean refiner is a global leader in premium lubricant base oils, producing about 80,000 barrels of Group III base oils a day, Chung writes in a note. She expects the supply shortage of lubricant base oils to persist for more than a year. Tight supply of kerosene and diesel and wider refining margins could also continue to boost the company's earnings, she adds.

Its Kulai and Sedenak West hubs offer 2.4GW of potential data-center capacity, while its AI-GPU capacity could scale to 100MW or more and support a new services business. The procurement of seven gas turbines totaling 5.25GW also positions YTL for power-generation growth and supports its expanding data-center pipeline, he reckons. Higher water tariffs and planned treatment plants at its unit Ranhill Utilities should support earnings as Johor's water demand rises, he adds. Hong Leong raises its target price to 8.08 ringgit from 7.58 ringgit and keeps a buy rating. Shares are 1.4% higher at 5.62 ringgit.
