XRP SuperTrend Flips Bullish for First Time Since January
XRP's SuperTrend indicator flipped bullish on the daily chart after a four-month sell signal period. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez identifies $1.55 as the critical resistance level that determines whether XRP rallies to $1.90 or fails.
Key Takeaway
XRP needs to close above $1.55 to clear supply overhang and unlock a run to $1.90.
Crypto analyst Ali Martinez spotted a bullish SuperTrend signal on XRP's daily chart that hasn't appeared since January 17.
XRP peaked above $2.40 in January before sliding into a three-month downtrend that bottomed near $1.28 in early April. On April 17, XRP touched $1.50 before closing the daily session at $1.40, triggering the bullish flip Martinez highlighted.
Martinez said a clean daily close above $1.55 would clear supply overhang and trigger a relief rally. Around 60% of XRP's circulating supply sits at an average cost basis near $1.44, creating a resistance zone between $1.40 and $1.45 where underwater holders look to exit. If XRP manages to clear $1.55 with a strong daily close, the next phase could play out very quickly.
Martinez pegged $1.90 as the primary upside target for the projected move. The last time XRP's SuperTrend flipped bullish on the 12-hour chart was in November 2025, when the token traded around $0.50. That signal led to a 470% surge that peaked at $2.90 on December 3 after breaking key resistance levels.
The broader crypto market saw inflows last week, with Bitcoin pushing back above ₱4,660,026 ($78,000). XRP traded at $1.42 at time of writing on April 20, 2026.
