A cryptocurrency analyst has pointed out how XRP could see a breakout from a Symmetrical Triangle if it manages to close above $1.45. XRP Has Potentially Been Trading Inside A Symmetrical Triangle In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has discussed a pattern that’s possibly forming in the daily chart of XRP. The pattern in question is a Symmetrical Triangle from technical analysis (TA), which is a type of triangular consolidation channel. It involves two converging trendlines: an upper resistance barrier and a lower support cushion. Related Reading: Bitcoin Breaks $80,000, But On-Chain Activity Signals A Silent Warning The main feature of a Symmetrical Triangle is that the two trendlines approach each other at a roughly equal and opposite slope. Thus, as the asset trades inside such a channel, its shrinks to a midpoint. Like other consolidation patterns in TA, one of the trendlines not holding up can imply a continuation of trend in that direction. This means that a surge above the resistance level can be a bullish signal, while a fall under support a bearish one. Since the Symmetrical Triangle involves trendlines converging at the same angle, it doesn’t have a bias in either direction. This suggests that a breakout from the pattern may be equally probable up and down. The Symmetrical Triangle isn’t the only triangle pattern that exists in TA. Other popular types include the Ascending and Descending variations. In the former, the upper trendline is parallel to the time-axis, while in the latter, the bottom level is flat instead. Now, here is the chart shared by Martinez that shows the Symmetrical Triangle that the 1-day price of XRP has been trading inside over the last few months: As displayed in the above graph, the daily XRP price has already made multiple retests of both the upper and lower trendlines of this Symmetrical Triangle, but so far, it hasn’t been able to find any break. Recently, the cryptocurrency has been surging, so it’s possible that the next retest could be of the upper level. If the asset manages to break past resistance this time, it could naturally indicate the continuation of a bullish trend. Based on the height of the triangle, the analyst has noted that a close above the $1.45 resistance mark could open the door to $1.80 for the coin. From the current exchange rate, a run to this level would mean an increase of more than 26%.

In this region, the range becomes so tight that retests turn more frequent, which also makes a breakout more likely to occur. Given this, it now remains to be seen when the asset will escape the triangle and in what direction. BTC Price At the time of writing, XRP is floating around $1.426, up 3.7% in the last seven days.

A crypto market analyst has suggested that XRP appears to be forming “one of its most significant multi-year structural patterns to date,” which could lead the altcoin to a rally similar to its 2017 expansion. Related Reading: Ethereum Poised For $140% Rally If This Resistance Flips – Analyst Calls Breakout Inevitable XRP Eyes 2017-Like Expansion On Thursday, market observer ChartNerd stated that XRP appears to be repeating a setup that may surpass the scale of the 2017 pre-breakout formation, which led to a massive 68,000% expansion during that cycle. In a video, the analyst explained that the altcoin has been developing since 2020, when the price saw its bear market bottom and created an ascending support level that held for nearly six years. Since then, XRP has resembled its pre-2017 performance, where the cryptocurrency experiences significant advances after retesting its ascending support, followed by sharp corrections within descending channels. As the chart shows, the altcoin recorded a 10x move between 2020 and 2021, which was followed by the 2022 bear market. After bottoming, XRP saw another 2x rally before retesting the trendline for the first time. The price then rallied another 6-7x between late 2024 and mid-2025, leading to the July all-time high (ATH) of $3,65. Now, the cryptocurrency is developing a similar corrective pattern to the previous two retests of the ascending support, which could suggest the potential for 1,992% rally to a double-digit target upon confirmation. “If XRP respects this pattern into late 2026, this is where we could potentially create the third retest, which is what we saw in the early cycles before the expansion in 2017,” the analyst asserted. He also added that “if we are repeating this sort of multi-year cycle from before, just on a larger scale here, then this could be one of the largest structural phases where XRP is building a base and waiting for the leg up.” Consolidation Until Late May? ChardNerd also shared a short-term outlook for XRP based on its performance over the past 11 weeks. He noted that on the daily timeframe, the altcoin is still hovering between major descending resistance and ascending support levels, forming a triangle pattern. So, you can see, since we actually formed the base back here in February, we worked down to $1.11, created the resistance, which came back to create this ascending level of support roughly at $1.28. Then we’ve seen this break up to sort of $1.50, and we’ve now pulled back to the support line once again. Taking this into consideration, alongside the fact that its RSI levels are oversold on the daily timeframe, the analyst believes that XRP could be building a base near the ascending support before attempting to retest the descending resistance.

Nonetheless, he observed that “because we’re converging in this range and it’s been about 8 to 9, maybe 10 weeks of range-bound price action, it would be likely that we still see this compression” squeeze into the pattern’s apex until at least mid-May, when the price is expected to see a directional breakout from the formation. Ultimately, the market observer suggested that “as long as we respect the trend line and continue to defend ascending support (…), it’s looking for a retest back towards sort of $1.50 in the short term.” Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com
As XRP attempts to defend a crucial support level, an analyst has called for a 30%-40% rally in the coming weeks, suggesting that the altcoin could see short-term relief before it reaches its “critical inflection point.” Related Reading: Analyst Says Dogecoin At $2 Is ‘Inevitable’ As Elon Musk Revives ‘Dogefather’ Meme XRP Defends Its ‘Lifeline’ On Friday, XRP saw a 2.5% intraday retrace to retest the $1.43 area before bouncing above the crucial $1.40 level. The altcoin has been hovering between $1.34-$1.50 over the past month, recently attempting to break out of the range’s upper boundary. During this week’s market rally, the cryptocurrency surged 15% from the weekend lows, reaching a one-month high of $1.60 on Tuesday. However, broader market volatility has pulled XRP back into its local range, leading the altcoin to retest a crucial area. Analyst ChardNerd affirmed that the altcoin is “currently defending a lifeline as it clings to support” and that he expects continuation to what he believes will be its “critical inflection point” in the coming weeks. XRP has been trading around its 200-Week Exponential Moving Average (EMA), currently at $1.41, with multiple closes below it and a bullish reclaim above this level in the latest weekly candle. As he explained, this is the key guardrail that the cryptocurrency must defend as the end of the week approaches, as it would set the stage for a new retest and potential reclaim of its $1.50 resistance and a relief rally toward two crucial levels above, the 20 EMA and 50 EMA. “So, what I’m trying to say is XRP could potentially have some sort of relief in the coming months, up towards these EMAs, which sit between $1.80 and $2.00. And if it gets this relief, that will mark a very critical inflection point.” He further emphasized that XRP must defend and hold the 200 EMA, as it has reclaimed the critical support level in the weekly timeframe and pushed the price toward its recent local highs. Why An April Rally Is Likely Diving deeper into the potential upcoming relief rally, the analyst observed that in previous cycles, XRP also had a “very interestingly unfolding price action.” He noted that after peaking in 2021, the altcoin fell to the 200 EMA, saw a relief rally toward the 20 and 50 EMA before being rejected and ultimately dropping to its bear market lows. Now, the cryptocurrency has done “exactly what we did in the prior cycle peak in 2021,” significantly retracing from its July 2025 peak and falling back to the 200 EMA. Notably, the altcoin saw around three months of relief after the successful back test, which could signal that “this is where we could see the next sort of few months, if Bitcoin behaves.” Related Reading: Solana Eyes ‘Clear Path’ Towards $115 Amid SEC Guidance, SOL ETFs Demand Moreover, the previous relief rally took place around March 2022, ChardNerd asserted, noting that “It doesn’t have to repeat the exact same way.” If the March relief rally doesn’t retest the $1.80-$2.00 in the next week, the analyst suggested that “there is a possibility that it lasts a bit longer than it did the prior cycle” and continues into April or May. “So, this is why there’s still the potential, I think, to get the push to $2 and then XRP comes back to $0.80 to $0.70,” he concluded.

XRP has reclaimed the $1.50 level as market activity accelerates and bullish momentum begins to build after weeks of consolidation. The move higher suggests that buyers are regaining control, with traders closely watching whether XRP can sustain this breakout and establish a stronger uptrend. Related Reading: Ethereum Whales Step In: $33M ETH Withdrawn From Exchanges In Hours Beyond price action, derivatives data is revealing a notable shift in market behavior. According to a recent CryptoQuant report, multiple indicators are now signaling activity levels not seen in weeks, pointing to a renewed wave of participation across XRP markets. In particular, the Multi-Exchange Open Interest Delta is showing clear signs of expansion. This metric tracks the net change in total open contracts across major derivatives platforms over a given period, offering insight into how traders are positioning. A positive Open Interest Delta indicates that new positions are being opened, reflecting growing participation and capital inflows into the market. Conversely, a negative reading suggests that traders are closing positions, which typically signals reduced activity or risk-off behavior. Recent data shows a sustained increase in open interest, suggesting that traders are actively entering the market rather than exiting. For analysts, this shift often signals rising conviction and increasing speculative interest, conditions that can support stronger price movements if accompanied by continued demand and favorable market structure. Open Interest Surge and Liquidations Drive XRP Breakout Dynamics The CryptoQuant report provides a broader perspective by tracking Open Interest Delta across six major derivatives exchanges, offering a comprehensive view of how traders are positioning in XRP. The data reveals two distinct waves of position building that preceded the recent breakout. On March 13, open interest increased by approximately $16 million, followed by a second surge on March 16, where an additional $18 million in positions were opened. This sequence is structurally important, as it shows that traders were actively building exposure before XRP broke above the $1.50 level, marking the asset’s first return to this price zone since February 15. At the same time, liquidation data highlights the impact of this positioning. XRP’s move above $1.50 forced significant liquidations on short positions, proving that the breakout caught many traders off guard. The prior increase in open interest played a key role in this dynamic. Higher leverage across the market meant that once the price moved against short positions, forced liquidations accelerated the move, adding momentum and volatility. This combination of pre-breakout positioning and post-breakout liquidations suggests that derivatives activity amplified XRP’s rally beyond spot demand, creating a feedback loop that intensified price action.

XRP is currently trading around $1.51, having recently reclaimed the $1.50 level, which now acts as a key short-term pivot for price direction. The broader structure remains corrective. XRP continues to trade below the 50-, 100-, and 200-period moving averages, all of which are trending downward. The market’s current alignment reflects ongoing pressure as sellers frequently meet price rallies with heavy supply at higher levels.

That zone marked a capitulation low, supported by a noticeable increase in volume, suggesting strong buyer absorption. Since then, XRP has formed a base between $1.30 and $1.45, gradually building momentum before pushing higher. Reclaiming $1.50 indicates improving sentiment, but the asset now faces immediate resistance near $1.70, followed by a stronger barrier around $2.00, where previous consolidation and moving averages converge. Volume during the recovery remains moderate, signaling that the move is still developing rather than driven by aggressive inflows. Featured image from ChatGPT, chart from TradingView.com
As XRP anticipates a potential rally toward a key short-term resistance level, an analyst has set a bold target for the cryptocurrency’s long-term performance, suggesting that the altcoin could soar by over 1,300% during the next bull run. Related Reading: Ethereum Eyes $2,100 Retest As BlackRock Debuts Staked ETH ETF XRP Targets $48 In Next Bull Run On Friday, XRP joined the broader market rebound, experiencing a 3.5% surge and reaching a one-week high of $1.45. Over the past month, the cryptocurrency has been oscillating between $1.20 and $1.50, hovering above the upper area of this range. Amid this performance, analyst Ali Martinez shared a bold prediction for XRP’s price in the next bull run, suggesting a massive rally could unfold in the coming years based on a multi-year pattern. According to the chart, the altcoin has been forming an ascending triangle pattern on the monthly chart since 2018, when it rallied around 1,500% over two months to its old all-time high (ATH). XRP has traded between the $3.30 horizontal resistance and the ascending trendline over the past eight years, marking the bottom and peak of each rally during the last two cycles. The analyst suggested the altcoin could continue to move within this pattern until the next bull run and potentially rally 1,350% to the $48 target once it breaks through the multi-year resistance. Similarly, market observer Chard Nerd shared XRP’s macro chart but highlighted a potential retest of a resistance-turned-support instead. He noted that the cryptocurrency broke out of a multi-year symmetrical triangle pattern when the price soared past its eight-year resistance during the Q4 2024 market rally. Per the post, XRP could test the pattern’s neckline, currently around the $0.70-$0.80 area, as support in the coming months before beginning to recover from the bear market lows. Is A March-April Rally Brewing? In a Friday video analysis, Chart Nerd also shared a short-term outlook for XRP, highlighting its attempt to break out of a one-month symmetrical triangle on the daily timeframe after today’s pump. As he explained, the altcoin’s price has been compressing between a major level of resistance and a major level of ascending support over the past five weeks, which could target a 25% rally in the next few weeks as it approaches the tighter range of its apex. The apex does have a date (…) we’re looking towards the end of March, 25th of March, where XRP could, if it rejects from this $1.42-$1.43 level, (…) get really tight and compressed into a corner to look for a decision. The analyst suggested that the pattern’s upper boundary has been a major level of resistance throughout February, which could squeeze XRP’s price “into this apex towards the end of March” before potentially choosing its next direction.

If XRP breaks out of this apex to the upside and reclaims the $1.50 horizontal resistance, it will validate a move toward the $1.80-$2.00 area, which he previously called “a critical inflection point,” by the end of March or start of April.

During the Wednesday market recovery, XRP surged 7.9% to hit a one-week high of $1.47. The cryptocurrency has been hovering between $1.35-$1.50 over the past three weeks but has failed to break above the local range’s upper boundary. As the price nears this resistance once again, an analyst has suggested that a short-term rally toward another critical level could be brewing, potentially setting the stage for the altcoin to decide its next market direction by the end of Q2. Related Reading: The ‘Next-Generation Trading Chain’: BNB Chain Eyes 2026 Optimization Following Strong Ecosystem Momentum XRP To See March Breakout On Wednesday, analyst ChartNerd called for a short-term 20%-30% XRP rally in the next month or two, affirming that “relief is overdue” after six months of continuous downside pressure. In a video analysis, the market observer affirmed that the cryptocurrency is attempting to build a base within its local range to retest a crucial resistance level after losing the $1.80-$2.00 area as support in January. As he explained, XRP is attempting to form an ascending triangle or double bottom pattern in the daily timeframe, with the formation’s neckline sitting around the $1.50 mark. Based on this, if the altcoin “coils up inside this triangle and eventually gets a breakout heading into March, this is where the potential lies of rallying back up to $1.80” to retest this previous area of support as resistance. Meanwhile, if the cryptocurrency is forming a double bottom pattern, the analyst noted that “even a retrace to the $1.20 level would still mark a higher low before a short-term bullish reversal.” In both cases, breaking out of the $1.50 resistance would validate a move toward the $1.80-$2.00 area, which he considers “a critical inflection point” as XRP held it as support for 400 days. It would be a critical inflection point. I mean, potentially, we could respect some sort of ascending channel here as well, leading into March, which is what may guide us up to that $1.80 resistance. (…) If XRP does sort of respect these trend lines, it’s resistance. We’re back at support. Is A Critical Retest Ahead? Despite the bullish outlook, ChartNerd warned that XRP still risks a correction of up to 50%. Per the analyst, the $1.80 retest will determine whether this area has turned into resistance and the price will continue to go lower, or if it will be reclaimed and push to higher levels. “If the rally into $1.80/$2 unfolds in March/April, that will be the telltale sign of whether $0.70 is on the cards or not. Breaking cleanly above $2 signals strength and invalidation of that potential. Rejecting it as resistance would then cause a potential $0.70 drop,” he added on X. A reclaim of this key area as support could open the doors for a retest of the golden $2.40-$2.70 range, not visited since the Q4 2025 crash. It could also signal that the corrective period may be over. Related Reading: Bitcoin Positioned For More Pain Following Weekly Close Below This Critical Level However, he recently cautioned that losing the 200-week Exponential Moving Average (EMA) in the weekly timeframe and confirming it as resistance has historically signaled a major drop toward the $0.70 area. In previous cycles, XRP entered a deep corrective move when it failed to hold this level, crashing around 50% to its bear market bottom. Therefore, he emphasized that the cryptocurrency needs a convincing reclaim of its crucial area to invalidate this potential outcome. As of this writing, XRP is trading at $1.46, a 2.7% increase on the weekly timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com
As XRP attempts to climb to higher levels, an analyst affirmed that the altcoin is “doing what it needs to do” to continue its bullish rally, highlighting multiple key structures in key timeframes. Related Reading: Dogecoin Foundation-Backed ETF Launches On Nasdaq As Analysts Call For Massive DOGE Rally XRP Enters Inflection Point After retesting the $1.90 area on Friday morning, XRP saw a 4.6% intraday bounce toward the mid-zone of its local range. Over the past five days, the cryptocurrency has been hovering in the $1.85-$2.00 price range, failing to hold the upper zone of this range. Market watcher ChartNerd pointed out a key reversal pattern that could signal a massive price expansion may be around the corner, noting that the altcoin is at a “critical inflection point” as it retests a macro support zone. He explained that a running flat ABC correction formation is “a sophisticated structure where the failure of the ‘C’ wave to breach previous lows signals underlying bullish strength.” XRP has been mirroring the same structure over the past 400 days, which would point “toward a structural breakout, marking the transition from a yearly long base into a new primary uptrend” if it resolves. As the chart shows, “the wave counts repeating toward the structure are evident in XRP’s price action,” and as long as the macro support holds, around the $1.80 area, the C wave “could be working in the bulls’ defense.” We could be just building a base above $1.80, marking the C wave in this running flat correction before the major breakout. ChartNerd added that there could be a scenario in which XRP deviates below its major support before a V-shape recovery. However, he warned that losing this area would not be healthy, detailing that the only way to invalidate the pattern would be for the price to close below the structure’s support, retest it as resistance, and drop to lower levels. XRP’s Price Defends Macro Support The analyst emphasized the importance of the $1.80 level, noting that XRP has been defending this territory for over a year and could lead to a new all-time high (ATH) rally. “This is a macro accumulation zone, and we evidently also have two major levels of descending resistance for XRP,” he detailed, highlighting that when the first multi-month descending resistance broke, the altcoin rallied to a new all-time high. It’s pretty simple: we have descending resistance on our heads at the moment, and we once had a point of contact on this resistance at the $2.40 high (…) So, at this moment in time, the simplicity tells us: break the descending resistance, and this is where XRP really starts gearing up for further expansion. Based on this, ChartNerd asserted that if the altcoin defends the $1.80 macro support, then a similar rally is likely. Similarly, he pointed to a bullish reversal structure building below the key $2.70 resistance on XRP’s chart. Related Reading: Bitcoin To $80,000?

Now, the price is retesting the pattern’s breakout level as support and could be preparing to climb toward the level it started forming. “So XRP just needs to defend the guard at $1.80, and this is where we could be looking for that sort of major expansion and looking to press back up to the target of $2.70,” before potentially challenging its pre-Q4 range, he concluded.

The XRP market recorded a net negative performance in the past week, resulting in a minor 1% price decline. A very volatile market movement saw the altcoin trade as high as $2.17 before returning below the $2.10 resistance. As XRP investors eagerly await the next market move, recent on-chain data shows evidence of another impending price breakout. Related Reading: XRP Wave C Push On The Way: What Could Send Price Below $2? XRP Negative Funding Rates Fuel Positive Market Bias In exchange activity, funding rates refer to periodic payment mechanisms used in perpetual futures markets to keep the futures price aligned with the spot price. A positive funding rate suggests that long positions are overcrowded, which sees these long traders pay premiums to short traders to maintain their existing positions, thereby incentivizing and eventually pulling the futures price back toward the spot market. According to market analyst PelinayPA, whenever the XRP funding rates have turned positive, there is usually an ensuing price consolidation or sharp correction. Such price movement can be attributed to the rising cost of maintaining these long positions and also the strong potential of a long squeeze, eventually causing a fall in market demand. On the other hand, sudden negative spikes in funding fates, especially when accompanied by a corresponding fall in funding rate, SMAs have resulted in the historical formation of a price bottom. Despite the pessimistic sentiment associated with negative funding rates, there is always a subsequent short-term price rebound. PelinayPA explains the XRP market sits in the latter situation as the funding rate is presently around -0.00323, while both SMA50 and SMA30 are heading downwards. Clearly, there is little optimism as short positions account for most of the existing leverage in the market. However, based on historical data, the chances of a price pullback or sustained selling pressure are presently low. Rather, the current funding data suggest the market is gathering momentum for a potential positive price breakout after a period of consolidation. However, PelinayPA warns that this signal does not indicate a major price rally, but only a stronger potential for an upward price move.

However, the monthly chart reports an impressive price gain of 13.45%, indicating that a significant portion of new market entrants are sitting in profits. Despite these gains, XRP remains significantly below the cycle’s all-time high at $3.5. To decisively establish any form of bullish intent, XRP bulls must reclaim the immediate resistance at $2.10 before setting sights on future targets, including $2.60 and $3.00.

XRP has recovered from the recent market pullback and is attempting to confirm the $3.00 level as support. However, an analyst suggested that the cryptocurrency risks a new retest of the range lows before bullish momentum continues. Related Reading: Cardano Retests Key Support As SEC Delays ETF Decision – Is An October Rally Brewing? XRP’s Daily Close Key For Momentum XRP has reclaimed a crucial level as support while the crypto market stabilizes from this week’s market downturn. The altcoin has been trading sideways over the past week, hovering between $2.85-$3.10 range. The cryptocurrency retested the range lows, holding the lower boundary as support during the recent market volatility. Now, the price surged 7% from Monday’s lows to the $3.08 area before retracing to the $3.00 mark. On Wednesday, analyst Ali Martinez noted that XRP was rejected from local resistance, around the $3.10 area, for the third time, which could signal a new correction to the range lows similar to the previous attempts. If the altcoin fails to hold the current level as support and loses the mid-range area, its price could drop to $2.83, risking a fall below the local range and a deeper correction. On the contrary, if bullish momentum continues and the cryptocurrency breaks out of the crucial resistance, its price could rally to the August high levels, between $3.20-$3.40. Similarly, analyst Cryptoinsightuk noted that XRP had a positive daily close, adding that the “RSI crossed bullish and even throughout this pullback we’ve seen no change in structure.” Nonetheless, he suggested that the cryptocurrency needs to continue its momentum with a second day of follow-through price actions and trading volume. The market watcher asserted that a daily close above the $3.14 area will set up the stage for a rally to the $3.40 resistance in the coming weeks. Is A 2017-Like Rally Coming? After its July rally to its latest all-time high (ATH) of $3.65, the altcoin has been consolidating within a bullish pennant, with price compressing between the pattern’s resistance and support levels. Analyst GalaxyBTC also noted that XRP has been compressing between two parallel levels, repeating its 2017 playbook. Previously, the cryptocurrency hovered between the previous ATH level and the rally breakout level, which was turned into support. Following a consolidation period, the cryptocurrency broke out of this range and recorded a massive rally to its 2018 ATH. This time, XRP turned the $1.70 area into support last November and has been consolidating between this level and the previous ATH for the past eight months, which could suggest that the rally isn’t over yet. If history repeats, a massive breakout will follow once the altcoin breaks out of the previous ATH resistance and turns it into support. Related Reading: Chainlink Ready For Massive Breakout? A 15% Drop May Come First Moreover, the analyst highlighted a key level in XRP’s trading pair against Bitcoin (BTC), explaining that the 0.00003014 area has been a resistance in the XRP/BTC chart over the past six years. While the XRP/BTC pair continues to near this resistance, the market watcher considers that “the timing is perfect, as breaking out will put us well into price discovery on the USD pair.” As of this writing, XRP is trading at $3.02, a 3.3% increase in the weekly timeframe.

XRP is trading at a pivotal level as the broader crypto market regains strength and bullish sentiment returns. While macro uncertainty and volatility persist, XRP has remained resilient, holding firmly above key demand zones. The asset is now attempting to reclaim higher supply levels, with bulls pushing for a breakout that could define its next major move. Related Reading: Ethereum Consolidates As Accumulation Trend Develops – New Bullish Phase Ahead? Top analyst Ali Martinez recently shared a technical view showing that XRP is currently trading within a very tight range. This period of consolidation has compressed volatility, setting the stage for a potential explosive move. According to Martinez, a decisive daily close outside this range could determine the direction of the next major trend—either a breakout toward previous highs or a drop toward lower support levels. For now, XRP appears to be leaning bullish as it tracks the momentum seen across other major cryptocurrencies. Traders are watching closely to see if XRP can reclaim the $0.70–$0.75 range, which could open the door to a broader rally. Until then, the current structure suggests that XRP is coiling for a breakout, and the next few sessions could be decisive in confirming the trend ahead. XRP Trades Above $2 As Market Awaits Breakout Or Breakdown XRP is trading above the $2 mark, holding strong amid rising volatility and uncertainty across the crypto market. While bulls are showing signs of strength, they continue to struggle with the $2.35 resistance level—a barrier that has capped recent upward momentum. At the same time, bears have been unable to push the price below current support levels, keeping XRP locked in a tight consolidation range. The broader market is heating up, with Bitcoin testing key resistance near all-time highs, creating an environment where altcoins like XRP could soon follow with significant moves. Analysts are closely watching this setup, with many calling for a bullish expansion phase if XRP can break through overhead resistance and confirm strength. Martinez has identified two critical levels that will likely define XRP’s short-term trend: $2 and $2.26. According to Martinez, a decisive daily close outside this range could set the tone for the next major trend move—either a breakout toward new highs or a breakdown into deeper consolidation. However, market risks remain. Ongoing geopolitical tensions between the US and China continue to influence risk sentiment, and traders remain cautious as these macro factors develop. Still, XRP’s price structure shows strength, and if bulls can overcome $2.35, the asset could gain serious momentum. For now, all eyes are on XRP as it coils near key levels. The next few days will be crucial in determining whether this consolidation resolves to the upside or signals another round of range-bound price action. Either way, a major move appears to be on the horizon. Related Reading: Cardano Struggles At Resistance – Expert Sees A Retest of Lower Support Levels Price Analysis: Technical Details XRP is currently trading at $2.14 after bouncing off recent lows near the $2.05 level. The 4-hour chart shows the price holding just above the 200-period simple moving average (SMA) at $2.11 and slightly below the 200-period exponential moving average (EMA) at $2.17. This positioning highlights a key zone of indecision, with bulls and bears locked in a tug-of-war around a major support and resistance confluence. The price structure remains neutral but constructive. After a failed attempt to push above the $2.30–$2.35 resistance range in late April, XRP has entered a phase of consolidation. Despite the pullback, bulls have defended the $2 psychological level multiple times, indicating strong demand in that area. Volume has remained steady, and XRP appears to be forming a higher low, which could serve as a launchpad for another attempt at the range highs. A breakout above the $2.26–$2.35 zone would likely confirm bullish continuation and open the path toward $2.50 and beyond.

XRP has emerged as one of the strongest-performing assets in recent weeks, defying broader market volatility and mounting macroeconomic uncertainty. After a rough start to the month, XRP has rebounded sharply, posting a 32% gain from last Monday’s low. The token’s resilience has caught the attention of analysts and investors as it continues to outperform many of its peers in the altcoin space.

Much of this strength is attributed to growing optimism that macroeconomic tensions—particularly around global trade policies and inflation—may begin to ease. If this trend continues, XRP could be well-positioned to lead the next leg of the crypto recovery. Top crypto analyst Ali Martinez added to the bullish narrative, sharing a technical analysis showing that XRP is currently trading within an ascending triangle—a pattern typically associated with upward breakouts. Martinez identifies $2.22 as the critical resistance level to watch. If bulls can push above that line, it could open the door to a move to higher price levels. With momentum building and technical indicators aligning, XRP appears to be approaching a pivotal moment. The next move could determine whether this rally has more room to run—or if resistance will stall the breakout. XRP Bulls Eye Breakout As Market Looks for Direction XRP bulls are gaining confidence as the market shows signs of stabilization following weeks of volatility. With global tensions still unresolved, the broader crypto environment remains uncertain—but XRP has managed to hold its ground, consistently trading above the $1.80 level. This steady performance has analysts optimistic that the token could be preparing for a strong move higher, especially if macroeconomic pressure starts to ease in the coming weeks. The anticipation surrounding potential monetary policy shifts and cooling inflation expectations could create a more favorable environment for risk-on assets like XRP. Some market participants are betting that as clarity returns to the global economy, high-conviction assets will lead the charge—and XRP is firmly on that list. However, not all analysts agree that the rally will be smooth. A more cautious view suggests that the market might need one more correction to establish a solid foundation. This scenario would involve a dip below current levels to set a new demand zone before the next leg up begins. In the meantime, Martinez identified a key pattern unfolding: XRP is trading within an ascending triangle—a bullish continuation setup. According to Martinez, the $2.22 resistance level is the crucial threshold. A confirmed breakout above this level could trigger a surge toward $2.40, potentially marking the start of a broader upward trend. As traders watch price action closely, XRP’s ability to hold key support and test the top of its triangle could determine its next big move. The coming days may prove pivotal in shaping the short-term future of this high-profile altcoin. Related Reading: Ethereum Stays Below Realized Price: Once-In-A-Cycle Opportunity? Daily Price Action Leans Bullish After Reclaiming Key Averages XRP is currently trading at $2.14 after a strong move that saw the token reclaim both the 200-day moving average (MA) at $1.89 and the 200-day exponential moving average (EMA) at $1.95. This bullish development signals a potential shift in trend, as XRP bulls now hold a short-term momentum advantage. Holding above these key indicators is essential for sustaining upward pressure and building confidence in a broader recovery. The next major hurdle lies at the $2.60 daily supply zone. A clean break above that level could open the door for a continuation rally targeting higher resistance zones. For now, bulls will need to maintain strong buying interest and volume to test and eventually breach that level. However, downside risks remain. If XRP fails to hold the $2.00 psychological support, a deeper correction could unfold. This would invalidate the recent breakout and potentially send the token back toward the $1.80 zone or lower, depending on broader market conditions.

XRP price is holding above key support levels after an aggressive 20% drop since last Sunday.

According to Martinez, XRP could target $1.65 if the breakdown continues, making the next few weeks crucial for its price action. The overall market remains under pressure, with altcoins struggling to reclaim key levels. Bulls could push for a recovery if XRP manages to hold above $2 and regain momentum. However, failing to defend this support could result in a deeper correction, putting additional pressure on the broader crypto market. XRP Bulls Try To Reclaim Bullish Momentum XRP is trading below key levels as it tries to reclaim bullish price action amid the broader market selloff. The entire crypto market has been under pressure after Bitcoin lost its weekly support, triggering panic and increasing selling pressure across altcoins. XRP, like most major assets, has struggled to hold its ground, dropping sharply over the past few days. Martinez’s analysis on X reveals that XRP is breaking out of an ascending parallel channel, signaling a potential move lower. According to Martinez, XRP could target $1.65 if it fails to hold current demand levels. This breakdown aligns with the overall market weakness, where bulls are struggling to regain control. Despite the bearish outlook, XRP is still holding above the $2.20 mark, where buyers are attempting to defend the price from further declines. Short-term selling pressure seems to be fading, and if bulls can maintain support above this level, a recovery could be on the table. However, if XRP fails to reclaim the $2.40 level soon, bears could take control and push the price further down. The next few days will be critical for XRP’s price action as the market looks for a potential reversal or continued downside.

For XRP to regain momentum, bulls must hold the price above the $2.20 level and establish it as strong support. A sustained hold at this level could set the stage for a recovery rally, with the next key resistance around $2.40. However, if selling pressure intensifies and XRP fails to maintain its current support, the $2 mark will be the last stronghold for buyers.

An analyst has pointed out how XRP could be targeting a breakout toward $15 if this pattern forming in its 1-week price chart is real. XRP May Have Broken Out Of A Symmetrial Triangle In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has discussed about a long-term consolidation pattern that XRP may have been traveling inside until recently. The formation in question is a Symmetrical Triangle from technical analysis (TA), which, as its name suggests, is shaped like a triangle. The pattern involves two trendlines within which the price consolidates, with a core feature being that these two levels approach each other at a roughly equal and opposite slope (hence the ‘symmetrical’ in the name). The upper line of the triangle is made by joining together lower highs in the asset and the lower one by connecting higher lows. Just like with other consolidation patterns in TA, the former is likely to provide resistance and the latter support. Related Reading: Bitcoin Could End Up Plummeting To $80,100 If This Support Fails As the consolidation of the cryptocurrency continues inside the triangle, it gets narrower since the trendlines approach convergence. A break out of the pattern starts to become more likely as this happens. When the breakout occurs above the upper trendline, the coin could be assumed to be heading toward a bullish outcome. On the other hand, a fall below the lower level can be considered a bearish signal. The Symmetrical Triangle is just one of the triangle patterns that exist in TA. Two other popular types include the Ascending and Descending Triangles, which occur when one of the trendlines is parallel to the time-axis (the upper one in case of the former and the lower for the latter). Now, here is the chart shared by Martinez, that highlights a potential Symmetrical Triangle that the weekly price of XRP had potentially been stuck inside during the last few years: As displayed in the above graph, the weekly price of XRP may have been following a long-term Symmetrical Triangle pattern between 2018 and November of last year. As mentioned before, a breakout becomes probable as the asset approaches the apex of the triangle and this is exactly what appears to have happened with the cryptocurrency as its price found a sharp surge above the triangle in November. “If this is a symmetrical triangle, XRP has broken out and is targeting $15!” notes the analyst. The target is based on the fact that breaks out of the pattern are usually of a similar scale as the height of the triangle (the vertical line).

Such volatility underscores the importance of risk management, as sudden pullbacks could occur before the next leg up.

According to Cheds, XRP has scored a lower high break on the daily timeframe—an indicator that often signals a bullish continuation. This technical milestone suggests that XRP’s upward momentum could intensify soon, further solidifying its bullish outlook. With market participants closely monitoring these developments, XRP appears well-positioned to capitalize on any broader market recovery and lead the charge toward new heights. XRP Eyes Rally Amid Market Uncertainty XRP is trading just below a crucial supply zone. Market watchers are optimistic about its potential to ignite a massive rally if it breaks through this level. This optimism is fueled by XRP’s strong performance since the U.S. election, which has bolstered investor confidence in its prospects for 2025. Analyst BigCheds recently shared a technical analysis on X that adds weight to the bullish sentiment surrounding XRP. According to BigCheds, XRP has achieved a lower high break on the daily timeframe, which is a key technical signal for a bullish trend. This development suggests that the momentum is building, and XRP may be preparing for a significant breakout. For XRP to sustain this bullish trajectory, the next critical step is to break above the $2.80 mark. This level serves as a major barrier and a gateway to challenging its all-time high (ATH). If XRP reclaims this territory, it will enter price discovery—a phase often leading to exponential growth as buyers drive the price higher with little historical resistance.

Investors are closely monitoring these developments, as breaking the $2.80 level could set the stage for XRP to lead the market into a new era of gains. Price Action Shows Bulls In Control XRP is trading at $2.54 after an impressive 15% surge since Friday, showcasing renewed bullish momentum in a market filled with cautious optimism. Bulls have taken control, pushing the price higher and testing crucial resistance levels that could define the next phase of XRP’s rally. The immediate challenge for XRP lies at the $2.72 supply zone, a key level that hasn’t been tested since mid-December. Breaking above this critical resistance would signal the potential for a rally into uncharted territory, setting XRP toward price discovery. A breakout here would likely lead to an aggressive upward move, attracting fresh capital and fueling bullish sentiment. However, the bullish case is not without risks. XRP must hold above the $2.45 mark to sustain its upward trajectory. Failure to maintain this support could lead to increased selling pressure, possibly sending the price back into a consolidation phase.
