XRP Struggles Below $2 After $5 Million Liquidation Event
- Liquidation Impact: On January 18, XRP faced a liquidation wave due to macroeconomic tensions, with over $5 million in leveraged trades being forcibly closed, including approximately $1.05 million on Binance, indicating a sharp deterioration in market sentiment.
- Market Reaction: The consideration of up to €93 billion ($107.7 billion) in tariffs by Europe against the U.S. triggered a synchronized selloff across digital assets, causing XRP's price to plummet from a rebound high of $2.40 to $1.85, reflecting the market's sensitivity to geopolitical risks.
- Price Trend Analysis: XRP is currently trading around $1.95, hovering just below the psychological $2 mark, with the daily chart indicating that prices are trading below major moving averages, as sellers aggressively defend the $2.20-$2.40 supply zone, hindering potential rebounds.
- Recovery Challenges: For bulls, reclaiming the $2.10-$2.20 range represents the first step toward recovery; otherwise, the risk of another breakdown toward $1.85 remains valid, as market sentiment continues to be fragile.
