Brief
XRP remains below the 50-week EMA, while increased volatility increases the possibility of significant price volatility in September. Repeated failures around $1.36 have eroded short-term momentum, while a confirmed break could expose the 20-week EMA as support at around $1.27. Buyers must recover $1.50 and ensure multiple weekly closures above resistance to confidently target $1.54,$1.65 and $1.82.
XRP may experience significant price fluctuations in September as it trades below the 50-week indexed moving average. According to ChartNerd, increased volatility and increased technical pressure make this resistance level critical to the next direction of XRP.
The cryptocurrency has recently rebounded from US$0.98 and climbed to around US$1.70, showing strong buying pressure. However, sellers held on to the 50-week EMA, preventing XRP from achieving a weekly breakthrough. The rejection is significant because the indicator has guided the broad downward trend in XRP since January. In addition, closing below resistance for two consecutive weeks increases the possibility of another pullback before the recovery continues.
XRP struggles between support and strong resistance
On the four-hour chart, XRP builds support around $1.36, and buyers need to break through $1.40 to $1.43 to challenge the $1.47 supply wall. However, XRP was rejected around $1.42 and fell below $1.36 twice, indicating a possible liquidity sweep while weakening short-term momentum.
Lock! The chart shows that there will be big moves in September. Volatility remains high, and XRP is under tremendous pressure below the 50-week EMA. The pressure is great! XRP family, enjoy!

In addition, the XRP has formed a lower high below the resistance level, while a confirmation of a break below US$1.36 may expose approximately US$1.27 near the 20-week EMA. The weekly indicator could support another attempt at rally, but losing $1.27 could bring the previous low of $0.98 back into consideration.
September direction depends on weekly breakthroughs
ChartNerd identified US$1.54, US$1.65 and US$1.82 as major resistance levels, while a breakthrough in the 50-week EMA will improve the chances of the XRP hitting these targets. Still, a brief break through resistance provided limited confirmation because XRP required multiple weekly closures and was supported by strong buying follow-up.
In addition, recovering $1.50 as support would weaken the possibility of a deeper correction, while failure would make a lower level technically possible. September could become the decisive moment as buyers target the 50-week EMA and sellers seek to confirm a break below the key $1.36 support level. This narrowed structure explains ChartNerd's September forecast that XRP's response to weekly indicators will determine whether buyers or sellers gain control.
