Crypto: Xrp Price Slips Below $1.60: How Low Can It Go In February? 2026
XRP’s bearish chart pattern signaled a possible price correction toward $1.22, fueled by declining demand and open interest.
XRP (XRP) price dropped below $1.50 over the weekend, its lowest level in over 14 months. Now, a bearish technical setup on the charts suggests that the downtrend may extend throughout February.
XRP’s bear pennant on the four-hour chart targets $1.22.
XRP futures open interest dropped to $2.61 billion, which gives some hope for the bulls.
On Saturday, XRP price fell about 14% from a high of $1.75 to a low of $1.50, losing the $1.60 support level for the first time since November 2024.

XRP dropped below the pennant’s lower trendline on Tuesday, then rebounded to retest it as support. The price is likely to drop lower if the retest fails and a four-hour candlestick closes below this level at $1.58.
The measured target of the bear pennant, calculated by adding the height of the initial drop to the breakout point, is $1.22, representing a 23% drop from the current price.
