XRP faces late-October test, may drop to $1.24 if it fails to clear $1.45

XRP is under short-term downside pressure ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve's late-October rate decision and Ripple's annual Swell 2026 event. It is attempting to rebound around $1.40, but selling pressure remains dominant on the four-hour chart. The key resistance area is $1.4450 to $1.4510. If buyers fail to break through, analysts see risks of renewed declines toward $1.3812, then $1.3189, and potentially $1.2468.
