According to the chart over a one-day frame, the price of Ripple is relatively stable above the critical support level at $2.00 within an extended correction wave, where the price has successfully defended this area repeatedly, contributing to the establishment of a strong base in the short term. The area between $2.00 and $2.05 represents an effective demand range, and if this range holds, the downside risks remain limited, with the next key support level centered around $1.80.
Positively, the chart clearly shows that the $2.38-$2.40 area represents the pivotal support point.
This area has formed a barrier against several previous recovery attempts and has now become the level that the price needs to regain to confirm the continuation of its upward trajectory.

If the price of Ripple manages to break through and hold above $2.40, this structure opens the door for a stronger move towards $2.81, and then the psychological area at $3.20 indicated in the chart$XRP .
