Trump Congress Battle Could Shape XRP Outlook

A Republican loss could change the legislative outlook, although the result would not automatically trigger an XRP rally. The most likely bullish scenario would be if investors are more receptive to tighter oversight of White House policy and this helps to improve overall risk appetite.

But the risk of regulatory uncertainty remains as negotiations of cryptocurrency legislation may become complicated in the event of divided government.

Crypto groups contributed about $176 million to over 100 midterm candidates, including an array of both Democrats and Republicans. 

Ripple was one of the significant industry financial backers, thus giving significance to the election for digital assets policy. The deadlocked CLARITY Act highlights the potential for congressional negotiations to impact future cryptocurrency regulations.

XRP Price Flashes Fresh Rebound Signal on Analyst Three-Day Chart

Crypto analyst Ali shared an XRP three-day chart showing a nine-count signal near the displayed price of $1.299. The chart recorded earlier signals followed by gains of 31.26%, 24.38%, and 18.65%, alongside a separate 71.88% rebound. 

XRP FLASHES BUY SIGNAL

The TD Sequential has flashed a buy signal on the $XRP 3-day chart. The last three similar signals triggered rebounds of 31%, 24%, and 18%.

That makes the latest signal worth paying attention to. But everything depends on $1.25.

Hold it, and XRP could rebound toward $1.40.

Lose it while whales continue taking profits, and $0.98 could be next.

A new nine-count appeared near the latest candles following a pullback from the token’s most recent recovery. The pattern draws attention to another possible rebound, though past gains do not guarantee a similar outcome.

XRP Whale Supply Share Hits Highest Level Since November 2022

The wallets that have a minimum of 10 million tokens in XRP now have 46.87 billion coins, as new Santiment blockchain data has indicated. 

Their collective ownership constitutes about 68.5 percent of the supply of XRP, the largest percentage of this group since November 2022. The recent data highlights the growing ownership concentration in large wallets, after a prolonged growth in their joint XRP token balances.

XRP Price Eyes $1.40 as RSI Strengthens and Buying Pressure Returns

The XRP price shot up to $1.32, following a recovery that had brought it down to around $1.26. 

The Relative Strength Index was at 58.70, which is above the neutral midpoint. This reading indicates the need to increase momentum, but not to exceed the traditional overbought level of 70. 

The Chaikin Money Flow stood at 0.11 and the 20 period indicator is positive after a negative performance in the recent past. The positive value indicates that the buying pressure has been reinforced, which contributes to the recovery that is reflected in the price chart. 

The first possible upside target is $1.35, which is approximately 2% higher than the price shown.

A sustained four-hour close above that level would strengthen the case for another attempt at $1.40. Reaching $1.40 would represent approximately 6% upside, with that resistance marking the next major test.

If buyers clear both barriers, the earlier trading area near $1.45 becomes a possible extended target. 

On the downside, $1.30 remains immediate support because recent candles repeatedly traded around that level. A four-hour close below this area would weaken the rebound and expose recent lows around $1.26.
