$SOL and $XRP support levels tested in London session

London Session Pressure on $SOL

$SOL broke lower through the $67.50 resistance-turned-support level during European trading hours, closing the London session at $66.22. Volume remained elevated at $5.2B, suggesting institutional participation rather than retail panic. The 24-hour decline of 2.33% positions the asset near the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement of the recent swing, calculated at $65.80—a level that will determine whether further downside accelerates or stalls.

The hourly RSI on $SOL dipped into oversold territory (below 30) during the overnight session, a signal that often precedes short-term reversals. However, the MACD histogram remains negative, indicating selling momentum has not fully exhausted. The $65.00 psychological level sits just 1% below current price and represents the next material support zone if $65.80 fails.

$XRP Holding Critical Fibonacci Zone

$XRP printed $1.13, down just 1.11% over 24 hours, and maintained its position above the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level at $1.12. This resilience during London hours suggests demand absorption near technical support. Volume at $3.1B reflects moderate but steady interest, typical of consolidation rather than capitulation.

The daily chart shows $XRP forming a potential cup-and-handle structure, with the handle base near $1.12. A break below this level would invalidate the pattern and expose $1.08 as the next support. Conversely, a retest and hold above $1.15 could signal accumulation ahead of a breakout attempt toward $1.25.

RSI and MACD Divergence

$XRP's RSI sits near 45, not yet oversold, while MACD is flattening—neither strongly bullish nor bearish. This neutral positioning during London trading suggests the market is consolidating rather than trending decisively. The lack of a strong directional signal makes $XRP's next move dependent on exogenous catalysts or a break of the $1.12–$1.15 range.

$SOL shows sharper technical deterioration. The RSI dip below 30 combined with negative MACD and price action below the 0.618 Fibonacci level ($65.80) creates a bearish setup if $65.00 fails. A close below $65.00 would target the $63.50 support zone, representing a further 4.2% downside from current levels.

Overnight Context and London Close

The overnight session (Asia through London) saw risk-off flows across alt-layer-1s, with $SOL absorbing more selling pressure than $XRP. This divergence suggests relative weakness in Solana's technical structure versus Ripple's support absorption. Volume profiles indicate institutional selling in $SOL rather than liquidation cascades, pointing to deliberate position reduction during lower-liquidity European hours.

$XRP's outperformance during the same period—declining less than $SOL despite similar macro headwinds—signals potential accumulation zones are being tested. The $1.12 level remains the pivotal point; a decisive hold would restore bullish momentum for a retest of $1.20.

Key Takeaways

• $SOL trading at $66.22 has broken below $67.50 support and approaches the 0.618 Fibonacci level at $65.80; failure here opens $65.00 and $63.50.
• $XRP held $1.13 and maintained support above the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement at $1.12, suggesting accumulation rather than capitulation.
• $SOL's RSI dipped oversold while MACD turned negative, signaling momentum weakness; $XRP's neutral RSI (45) and flattening MACD indicate consolidation.
• Volume on both assets remained institutional-grade ($5.2B and $3.1B respectively), ruling out thin liquidation moves and pointing to deliberate positioning.
• $XRP's outperformance versus $SOL during London hours suggests relative strength; next critical tests are $1.15 (resistance) and $1.08 (support) for Ripple.
