XRP is showing signs of life as it tests an 80 day falling channel. While the price sits near $1.07, data from South Korean exchanges reveals a strong accumulation trend. On platforms like Upbit and Bithumb, active buy orders are outpacing sell orders by a two to one margin. This shows that retail traders in the region are preparing for a potential breakout.

The current price action remains trapped between $1.07 and $1.18. To confirm a true trend reversal, the asset needs a daily close above the $1.18 resistance level. Without a significant jump in trading volume, however, traders should be cautious. A successful break above this ceiling could open the door for a move toward $1.30, while a drop below $1.07 may signal that the current support is failing.

Market participants should watch the volume closely during any attempted breakout. A move that lacks a 40 to 50 percent increase in trading activity might not sustain its momentum. For now, the focus remains on whether the strong demand from Korean markets can overpower the broader resistance that has held XRP down since May.
