XRP price trades at $1.11 on Tuesday after a slight recovery in the previous day. However, XRP is holding below the short-, medium- and long-term Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), which keeps the near-term bias capped despite improving momentum. The 50-day EMA at $1.14 and the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement at $1.13 sit just overhead as immediate resistance, while a mid-range Relative Strength Index (RSI) around 51 and a positive Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram hint that selling pressure is easing rather than reversing.

From a technical perspective, the recovery is heading toward the 50% retracement at $0.7426, measured from $1.1984 to $0.4602. Momentum supports the bullish tone, with the RSI hovering near 61 and MACD in positive territory, suggesting ongoing upside pressure.
