XRP Could Swing To $1.19 Or $20 After Order-Book Collapse, Analyst Warns
In the chaotic aftermath of last weekâs market-wide wipeout, one granular forensic stands out: order-book depth on major venues thinned to âair,â letting relatively modest market orders rip through price levels with almost no resistance. The phenomenon, captured by independent market analyst Dom (@traderview2) on X, is now central to a stark takeaway for XRP: under the same microstructure conditions, price can mechanically gap as easily to $1.19 as to $20. It is not a forecast; itâs a statement about how quotes, liquidity, and matching engines behave under stress. XRP Price May Gap To $1.19 Or $20 Domâs post reconstructing the XRP leg of the move uses Binance Futuresâ order-book depth to illustrate the dynamic. âXRP orderbook depth on Binance Futures during the crash. Prime example of âliquidity evaporationâ,â he wrote, noting that for more than two hours pre-cascade, there was roughly â$50â60M in liquidity within 5% of price on both sides. Stable, deep book.â The hour everything broke was different. âLook closely right before 21:00 during that first leg down, nearly 20M USD market sold (shorts entering/longs liquidated). Bid side (blue) goes from $50M to near zero⊠At this point, XRP is near $2.50 while all liquidity under it is basically gone, air.â Minutes later, with âmore sells⊠trickling into a basically air pocketed book,â price slid from â$2.50 to $1.19. Nobody replenished the book. MMs either pulled or just walked away to protect. These markets really are more fragile than most think,â he wrote. Related Reading: XRP About To Stage A Repeat Of 2017?
