In general, exchanges with higher trading volumes and more liquidity have greater market depth. For example, on Binance, it takes about $1.44 million in sell orders to move XRP’s price down by only 2%. Conversely, it requires $1.2 million in buy orders to increase the price by 2%.
According to CoinMarketCap data, this process is valid for the XRP/USDT pair. For instance, on the US-based Coinbase, where the volume is much lower, only $850,000 can create a 2% negative movement. The market depth in major exchanges appears as follows according to the graph below:


What’s Happening on the XRP Front?
Recently, the XRP price has been unable to surpass $0.54, proving to be a significant barrier for the bulls. Since then, the price has been slowly moving towards the next major support level at $0.43. It is also important to note that bears have shown a downtrend on the monthly timeframe, indicating a significant change in the dynamics of price action.
The monthly close will happen in a few days, and it is crucial for buyers to step in if there is any chance of pushing the XRP price to $0.50 and above. The ongoing legal process between the SEC and Ripple Labs continues to create selling pressure on the XRP price.
