XRP Plays Support or Resistance? Choose Your Fighter at $1.10 🥊

XRP closed a volatile multi-session stretch near $1.10, with traders watching whether the level that repeatedly capped rallies over the past week can now hold as support after buyers finally forced a breakout on heavy volume. Over the sequence of sessions spanning July 6 through July 10, 2026, the token oscillated between roughly $1.07 and $1.16 before settling in a tight band around $1.09 to $1.10, leaving the market compressed between a defended $1.00 to $1.05 support zone and short-term resistance that has yet to be cleared decisively.

Price action traced a clear arc: XRP initially pushed through the $1.14 resistance on July 5, spiking from $1.1356 to $1.1594 in two hours as volume reached 81.89 million XRP, about 207% above the 24-hour average, before sellers forced a pullback to $1.146. By July 7, the token had slid to a session low near $1.1110 on volume of 106.5 million XRP, roughly 129% above the 24-hour average, failing to reclaim the $1.13 to $1.14 zone. Three days later, on July 10, buyers staged a late-session push that lifted XRP from $1.0827 to an intraday high of $1.1065 as volume hit 43.51 million XRP, about 88% above the 24-hour average, and the token held near $1.1020 to $1.1040 instead of retracing.

Underlying the choppy tape, spot XRP ETFs recorded a ninth consecutive week of net inflows totaling $17.19 million, even as the CLARITY Act missed its expected timeline after the Senate adjourned for recess without a floor vote, delaying any near-term regulatory catalyst. Santiment data showed XRP's 30-day MVRV near negative 45% and 365-day MVRV near negative 47%, leaving most holders underwater across both shorter and longer timeframes.
