A crypto analyst has set an ambitious target between $7 and $13 for the XRP price, basing his predictions on the Elliott Wave theory and Fibonacci levels. According to the analyst’s price chart, Wave 2 and 5 could push XRP to these key targets, marking new all-time highs for the cryptocurrency. XRP Price Roadmap To New ATHs The XRP price has been on a rather lengthy consolidation trend, halting its previous price momentum after hitting the $2.5 mark. Despite facing bearish trends and a drop to $2.2, a crypto analyst on TradingView, ‘Zerpcrypto,’ has shared a bullish forecast for the popular altcoin. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Flashes Major Buy Signal On The 4-Hour TD Sequential Chart, Where To Enter? According to the analyst, XRP could experience a significant price increase between $7.4 to $13.5. The analyst based his bullish projections on XRP’s recent price action and the Elliott Wave theory, a technical analysis tool that identifies predictable patterns in crypto prices and helps forecast market trends. Zerpcrypto shared a 2-year XRP price chart from 2014 to the present; labeling wave counts from one to five for the larger cycles and sub-waves within these cycles. The analyst’s chart indicates that XRP is currently in the middle of Wave 3, signaling a potential upward move. With Wave 2 already complete, Zerpcrypto anticipates that Wave 3 could trigger a strong price rally, potentially propelling XRP to $7.4. After reaching the Wave 3 target, a minor pullback is expected in Wave 4, allowing the market to consolidate before XRP’s final big push upward into Wave 5. In this last wave, XRP could rise to $13.5 and potentially even surge as high as $27.4. In addition to the Elliott Wave theory, Zerpcrypto‘s predictions are grounded in Fibonacci levels. The projected $7.4 and $13.5 XRP price targets align with the 4.236 and 8.618 Fibonacci extension levels respectively, reinforcing the analyst’s bullish outlook. Zerpcrypto has also spotlighted a positive Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) for XRP, further strengthening his confidence in the cryptocurrency’s projected $7.4 to $13.5 price target. Crypto Whales Buy 40 Million XRP Despite XRP’s price drop to $2.25, a 13% decline over the past week, whales continue accumulating large amounts of tokens, viewing the price dips as a potential buying opportunity. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez revealed in a recent X (former Twitter) post that whales have bought another 40 million XRP in the last 24 hours. Related Reading: XRP Price On Its Way To $10 In Only 3 Months If It Follows This Pattern A crypto community member has speculated that this large-scale purchase could signal that whales may be positioning themselves for significant change in XRP. Typically, a surge in whale buying activity often suggests increased confidence in the bullish outlook of a cryptocurrency. With XRP’s price surging over 4X from its previous low of $0.5 to surpass $2.2 in just two months, analysts are forecasting continued gains as the bull market gains momentum.

The XRP price has continued its steep correction into the past 24 hours, with it currently hovering around the $2.2 price level. Nonetheless, analysts are still concerned about the possibility of the XRP price reaching new highs sooner than later, with some giving projections into the two-digit threshold at $10 and beyond. Interestingly, crypto analyst Cryptoinsightuk recently shared his thoughts on social media platform X, drawing attention to a potential roadmap for XRP to achieve this ambitious target. Mirroring The 2017 XRP Price Pattern Cryptoinsightuk has brought a compelling perspective to the ongoing XRP price correction and its previous rally, highlighting how its current trajectory resembles the movement it experienced in 2017. Back then, XRP consolidated a little bit in early 2017 before undergoing a powerful rally that extended into 2018. Related Reading: XRP Battles Critical $2.20 Support Level — Will It Target $2.70 Or Slip To $1.96? With this in mind, technical analysis from Cryptoinsightuk adjusted the price action at that time to size in relation to XRP’s previous breakout in early October. According to this, if XRP continues to follow the 2017 pattern, the cryptocurrency could replicate this crazy move throughout 2025. Interestingly, the analyst’s overlay of the 2017 price action suggested that the XRP’s 460% price breakout from its early October range of $0.5 is already halfway into replicating this movement. If this were to continue playing out this way, the analyst expects XRP to break above $10 in the first quarter of 2025. However, Cryptoinsightuk’s projections extend beyond this initial $10 target in Q1 2025. If XRP’s price continues to mimic the historic movement beyond the first quarter, the analyst envisions what he describes as a “moon boy blow-off top.” This phase, which is characterized by a larger parabolic surge in price, could push XRP as high as $35 by the third or fourth quarter of 2025. Factors To Push XRP’s Bullish Trajectory CryptoinsightUK’s bullish outlook on XRP hinges on the cryptocurrency’s ability to replicate its 2017 movement. Back then, the parabolic surge saw XRP go from below $0.0060 until it reached its current all-time high of $3.40. Punching in the numbers, this comes up to around 56,000% gain over 12 months or so. Related Reading: Bitcoin $178K Target In Sight? Analyst Highlights Bollinger Band Retest Mirroring Jan. 2024 Rally While XRP is currently in a positive market sentiment to continue a strong bullish move, market conditions in 2024 are different from those in 2017. Furthermore, the amount of inflow capital needed to reach $10 or $35 at this point would be far greater than what it took to reach $3.4 in 2018. However, increased institutional involvement and factors like political and expected regulatory positivity in 2025 suggest that the XRP price could nonetheless go on a comparable surge. Additionally, broader crypto market trends, such as Bitcoin’s performance, could contribute to the predicted XRP price surge. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.18. Reaching the $10 and $35 price targets would translate to a 358% and 1,505% move, respectively. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

A crypto analyst has warned of an impending XRP price crash, urging investors not to get distracted as the RSI is still significantly above 50%. Discussing his predictions through short and long-term XRP price charts, the analyst shows that the cryptocurrency is firmly positioned in a bullish trend despite impending corrections.

Related Reading: This Analyst Predicted The Dogecoin Price Crash 2 Days Ago, Full Prediction Shows A Further 30% Decline According to Dark Defender, a crypto analyst on X (formerly Twitter), the RSI’s recurrent dips into oversold territory indicate that XRP could experience a price crash to new lows. The analyst disclosed that the XRP price had previously found strong support at $2.17; however, the cryptocurrency experienced a bounce to the upside. After hitting this support level, the XRP price is now consolidating, a pattern often associated with a potential uptrend after a correction. Despite the slight market recovery, the analyst has warned of another impending price crash in this same support zone as the RSI approaches oversold levels once more. Earlier in December, the RSI had hit oversold territories after dipping below 30%. Now XRP’s RSI is above 50% and signaling a potential to experience a price correction between the support levels at $2.17 and $2.18. Dark Defender has revealed that this price crash could occur soon as XRP is expected to enter oversold territory within a day. Despite this potential price correction, the analyst has acknowledged that the XRP’s broader outlook still looks bullish, with an uptrend continuation expected once the market consolidates following its projected price dip to new lows. Dark Defender has also predicted that XRP’s next price target after this projected correction is likely above $3, marking an almost 40% increase from the $2.17 support area. XRP 3-Month Chart Signals Strong Bullish Set Up Following his predictions that the XRP price could crash as it enters oversold conditions, Dark Defender also shared a 3-month chart analysis, painting a brighter outlook for the cryptocurrency. The chart shows that XRP has recently broken through a multi-year resistance level for the first time in over five years, signaling a strong bullish shift.

Dark Defender has marked several Fibonacci levels as potential price targets for XRP. According to the analyst, XRP could see a 261.80% rise to the 5.8563 Fibonacci level between $5 to $9. After which, the analyst expects a 361.80% surge to the 18.2275 Fibonacci between $16 to $28. Support levels at the 0.6649 Fibonacci at $0.9 have also been highlighted, acting as a safety net for XRP during price corrections. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

TradinSides alluded to SEC Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw’s reappointment and how it could ultimately impact the Ripple case and the XRP price. The analyst noted that Crenshaw’s reappointment is set for December 18. However, if Crenshaw’s renomination fails, Donald Trump could nominate a new Commissioner. Crenshaw’s renomination is significant as the SEC must file its opening brief in the appeal case on January 15. If she is reappointed, she could vote in favor of the Commission filing its opening brief since she has been known to take an anti-crypto stance on several occasions. The crypto analyst believes the altcoin could face selling pressure if the SEC pursues the appeal. On the other hand, if the SEC withdraws its appeal, TradinSides predicts that the Commission could also withdraw its appeal. This would lead the agency to approve the pending XRP ETF applications, which could drive demand up. If this doesn’t happen, the crypto analyst predicts that the Head and Shoulders pattern could drive the XRP price to $2.2. The State Of Things In an X post, crypto analyst Dark Defender provided an update on the current XRP price action. He stated that the 4-hour time frame confirms the break for XRP. The analyst added that the daily time frame will be confirmed above $2.52. Once XRP breaks above that level, Dark Defender predicts that the altcoin will then rally to $2.72.

The XRP price has been trading on a consolidation path after reaching a six-year high of $2.9 on December 3. The cryptocurrency has struggled to maintain upward momentum, and recent analysis points to the playout of a descending channel. According to an analysis on TradingView, XRP’s price movement suggests a corrective downtrend confined within a descending channel on the daily chart. Nonetheless, XRP is on track for a rebound to the upside, with price targets around its current all-time high. Corrective Downtrend And Key Support Levels According to a TradingView analysis, XRP has been experiencing a corrective downtrend since December 3. On that day, the cryptocurrency reached a peak of $2.9 on Binance but faced rejection and dropped to a low of $2.25 on the same day before closing at $2.5. This marked the beginning of a bearish phase, as XRP subsequently formed two more consecutive daily bearish candles. Related Reading: XRP Price In Motion: Analyst Reveals The Next Major Supports And Resistances While the token attempted a brief upward rebound, the move was met with another rejection. The alternating pattern of upward and downward movements resulted in the formation of lower highs and lower lows, which is a characteristic of a descending channel. The descending channel is a temporary phase of price correction rather than a prolonged bearish outlook. Within this context, the TradingView analysis identifies initial support levels at $1.8890 and $1.6, which align closely with the 0.618 and 0.786 Fibonacci retracement levels when drawn from the $2.9 high. These levels are support zones where the cryptocurrency could stabilize if downward pressure persists. A successful defense of these supports might act as a springboard for a bullish reversal, paving the way for the next upward leg in XRP’s price trajectory. Failure to hold these levels could increase bearish pressure on the XRP price and drive the price further down to the most notable support at $1.5. Related Reading: Dogecoin Fails To Follow Bitcoin’s Recent Uptick: Is A New ATH Still Feasible This Cycle? Potential Rebound And Target Levels For XRP Price If the XRP price successfully rebounds from the identified support zones, it is expected to challenge resistance at $2.8, marking the first milestone on its upward journey. A notable break above $2.8 would open up a run towards the final target of $3.3450. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at $2.41 and is down by 0.9% and 2% in the past 24 hours and seven days, respectively. Reaching the $3.345 level is tantamount to a 39% increase from the current price levels. Furthermore, this would put the XRP price close to its current all-time high of $3.4. The bullish momentum required to reach $3.345 could also push the XRP price into new all-time highs from that point. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

Popular market analyst Egrag Crypto has tipped XRP to soon hit the $2.90 price mark. This prediction comes amidst little movement in the XRP market following a consolidation between $2.25-$2.50 over the past few days. The altcoin emerged as one of the biggest market gainers post-US elections rising by over 340% since November 5. However, XRP alongside crypto market leader Bitcoin has only seen little gains so far in December. Related Reading: XRP Price In Motion: Analyst Reveals The Next Major Supports And Resistances XRP’s Path To $2.90 In an X post on December 14, Egrag Crypto shares a potential price trajectory for XRP to reach $2.90. Firstly, the analyst notes the asset has been moving between $2.27-$2.50 confirming a market move to gather momentum for a major price breakout in an upward direction. This notion follows a previous prediction whereby a price fall below $2.27 could have set XRP for a decline to around $2.17. However, in order to initiate any uptrend, Egrag stresses it is important that XRP closes above $2.50 on its hourly chart, which should result in a significant price gain. Thereafter, the altcoin is expected to retest $2.60. This suggests the need for market bulls to mount high-buying activity at this price level which is to function as a strong support zone that propels future price gain. Following a successful retest at $2.60, Egrag predicts XRP will resume its bullish trajectory, reaching a local peak of $2.90, leaving the asset just 24.4% away from its all-time high.

SEC Chair Gensler Suggests He May Step Down XRP Potential 2017 Repeat Predicts New ATH In January Following XRP’s price surge in November, analysts have re-echoed the possibility of the altcoin mirroring its first-ever major bull run from 2017. X analyst Crypto Bull has most recently dropped a take on this discourse stating XRP could hit a new all-time high on exactly January 2 if the 2017 cycle repeat proves true. Furthermore, the crypto analyst also predicts altcoin to be trading at $10 on January 15 representing a potential 4.16x on XRP’s current market price. Interestingly, certain XRP enthusiasts such as X user XRPE_Nomad expect the altcoin to produce a better performance than from 2017 based on its increased utility and better regulatory clarity. Generally, optimism around the third-largest cryptocurrency has been high following Donald Trump’s victory in the US Presidential elections which guaranteed the replacement of SEC Chairman Gary Gensler and a potentially swift end to the legal saga between the Commission and Ripple. At the time of writing, XRP trades at $2.40 reflecting a 1.18% loss in the past day. Meanwhile, the coin’s daily trading volume valued at $7.48 billion has declined by 16.67%.

With the XRP price set to make its next move, crypto analyst Dark Defender has revealed the next major support and resistance levels for the crypto. The analyst also suggested that XRP’s next move could happen sooner than expected. Next Major Support And Resistance Levels For The XRP Price In an X post, Dark Defender mentioned $2.42, $2.52, $2.71, and $5.85 as the next major support levels for the XRP price. Meanwhile, the crypto analyst highlighted $2.29, $2.24, $2.10, and $2.02 as the next major support levels for XRP.

Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Dominance And Altcoin Season: What The Sudden Volatility Means For The Market Dark Defender asserted that the XRP price would make its next move by tomorrow, noting that the current bull flag had reached its limit. The crypto analyst had recently highlighted a weekly bull flag on the XRP chart, which showed that the crypto could reach double digits in this market cycle. In his most recent X post, Dark Defender also provided an update on his XRP/BTC pair analysis. He stated that what was expected from the XRP price was coming and suggested that it might have already begun. Before now, the analyst predicted that XRP would record “tremendous” gains against its Bitcoin pair. Meanwhile, crypto analyst Ali Martinez recently highlighted a bull flag forming on the XRP price’s 4-hour chart. Based on this pattern, the analyst stated that XRP could experience a brief correction, then break out above $2.46 and rally to $4, which would mark a new all-time high (ATH) for XRP. Two Possible Scenarios For The Third Wave In an X post, crypto analyst CasiTrades outlined two possible scenarios for the third wave of the XRP price’s move to the upside. In the first scenario, XRP could record a typical move, extending to the 2.618 Fibonacci level. This puts the price target at $3.82, the crypto’s current ATH. Related Reading: Bitcoin Daily Bollinger Bands Expand, Why BTC Price Could Rise To $120,000 As Early As Next Week Meanwhile, for the second scenario, CasiTrades stated that if this third wave doesn’t extend, the XRP price could record the extension play in the fifth wave. If the third wave doesn’t extend, the price target will be $3.23 instead of $3.82. She added that this target is near XRP’s current ATH, so the extension play might not occur. CaiTrades cautioned that these are just projections and that the XRP price could adjust with the actual highs. However, she is confident that a big move is coming, as XRP has consolidated with minimal movement over the last day. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.51, up over 6% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com
A crypto analyst has shared an XRP price chart, hinting at a potential breakout above $10 if the prominent altcoin can replicate a past fractal. The analyst urges the XRP community to monitor this fractal closely, highlighting the need to monitor price movements in the coming weeks. XRP Price Eyes $16 As Analyst Spots Bullish Fractal An XRP supporter on X (formerly Twitter), known as ‘LUDXRP,’ has released a detailed chart analysis, predicting that the XRP price could climb to an ambitious price target of $16.15. The analyst mentioned the presence of a historic fractal on the XRP chart. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price On Its Way To $1: Why A Retest Of $0.48 Is More Important Than Anything The fractal pattern, indicated by the blue circle in the chart, highlights a significant upward movement in the XRP price. Following the movements of the chart, if XRP can replicate this fractal, it could trigger a significant price rally toward $16.15. Multiple green horizontal lines have also been shown in the chart, spotlighting different resistance and support zones that could trigger a reaction in the XRP price. With XRP trading at $2.42, the horizontal trend lines above its current price are seen as crucial resistance levels. The analyst highlighted intermediate price levels like $2.8, $4.1, $7.6, and $12.7 as crucial resistance levels, which XRP must surpass before reaching the ambitious target of $16.15. Additionally, the chart identifies $2 as a potential support level, warning that if the price drops below this mark, it could lead to a possible price dip to $1. With the possibility of breaking above $16, the XRP supporter has urged community members to monitor the fractal on the price chart closely. He emphasized the importance of XRP maintaining an upward trend within the blue circle, which could trigger his projected price increase toward $16. XRP To See “Face Melting” Rally This Christmas A crypto analyst identified as the ‘Charting Guy’ on X has expressed optimism about XRP’s future price outlook. According to the analyst, XRP could experience a ” face-melting “ rally to new highs by Christmas and in late January. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Price Rebounds Toward $0.00003, Taking 69% Of All Holders Back Into The Green The analyst has stated that if XRP continues to follow past bullish trends seen in 2017, the market will likely consolidate for another two weeks until Christmas. He disclosed that this bullish projection was primarily based on XRP’s fractal rather than relying on Fibonacci levels. In response to a comment from a crypto community member, the Charting guy agreed that by December 30, XRP would experience a series of strong green weeks, potentially driven either by the Christmas hype or the bullish sentiment surrounding the RLUSD stablecoin. The analyst also agreed that January 20, the inauguration day of Donald Trump as the United States (US) President, could mark the XRP price top, which the market would likely consider a “sell the news event.” Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

A Falling Wedge pattern has emerged on the XRP price chart, fueling speculation of a bullish reversal to new highs. According to a crypto analyst, XRP could reach three potential new price targets if it can break out of the Falling Wedge, with $2.8 being the highest target. Falling Wedge To Trigger XRP Price Surge To $2.8 The XRP price has been on a powerful uptrend in the past month, jumping from $0.5 to over $2 in just one month. Acknowledging this impressive performance, a crypto analyst on TradingView, known as ‘MBM_Crypto,’ has revealed that the XRP price has undergone a pullback and is currently “cooling off” in a Falling Wedge pattern after experiencing its massive upside move. Related Reading: Bitcoin CME Chart Shows Striking Similarities To 2023, Here’s What Happened Last Time A Falling Wedge is a technical chart pattern that indicates a potential price reversal to the upside. Typically seen as a bullish signal, this pattern often appears during a downtrend, featuring two converging trend lines sloping downwards. The TradingView analyst shared a chart detailing the XRP price action in a 2-hour time frame, highlighting the presence of a Falling Wedge pattern. The chart pointed out key areas where XRP is likely to encounter selling pressure, resistance, and indicate optimal buying levels for investors. The analyst suggests that purchasing XRP when its price breaks above $2.51 could be a strategic move, indicating a potential for a bullish breakout following the conclusion of its current consolidation phase. Additionally, he shared key take-profit targets for investors, suggesting that XRP was on track to potentially hit three bullish price milestones if it successfully breaks out of its Falling Wedge pattern. The first target for XRP is $2.6, followed by the second projected leap to $2.7, while the third and highest target is positioned at $2.8. For the XRP price to achieve these key price levels, the TradingView analyst has suggested that it will have to break above the blue resistance zone at $2.42, thus confirming a potential bullish continuation for the cryptocurrency. While the analyst is confident about his optimistic price projection, he has also acknowledged the possibility of a temporary pullback to $2.15 or even $1.96. Following this price correction, the crypto expert believes that XRP could eventually break out of the Falling Wedge and take off.

Crypto analyst Dark Defender has revealed a target to watch out for as the XRP price targets a new all-time high (ATH). The analyst made this prediction based on his wave analysis, which showed that XRP is still bullish. XRP Price To Hit New ATH At $5.85 In an X post, Dark Defender predicted that the XRP price could reach a new ATH of $5.85 based on his ABC wave analysis.

Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Prediction: Here’s What The 91-Day Pattern Says Could Happen Next With this development, the analyst is confident that the XRP price rally to $5.85 has begun. The analyst recently revealed that a bull flag appeared on XRP’s weekly chart, which showed that the crypto could reach as high as $11 by early 2025. Based on his Elliot Wave theory, the analyst had also previously predicted that the XRP market top could be around $18. In the meantime, the goal is for the XRP price to surpass its current ATH of $3.80 and reach $5.85, as Dark Defender has predicted. XRP has witnessed a price correction following its parabolic rally of over 200% last month. However, the crypto looks well primed for its next leg up. From a fundamental perspective, the XRP price boasts a bullish outlook, especially following New York’s approval of the RLUSD stablecoin. Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse confirmed that exchange and partner listings are set to follow and that RLUSD will launch soon. This development caused the price to experience a significant bounce. Meanwhile, crypto analyst TheXRPguy listed the RLUSD launch as one of the events that market participants wait for before they consider selling their coins. The stablecoin launch would inject more liquidity into the XRP ecosystem, which could spark a significant surge in the XRP price. The Stars Are Aligning For XRP In an X post, crypto analyst CrediBULL Crypto said that the stars are aligning for a massive bull run for the XRP price. He made this statement while alluding to the fact that experts predict that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) could dismiss its appeal against Ripple when the new administration comes in. Related Reading: This Analyst Correctly Predicted The Bitcoin Flash Crash To $94,000, But There’s A New Target He noted that the SEC lawsuit is the last “lone cloud” lingering above the XRP community. As such, dismissing the appeal could boost investors’ confidence in the crypto, providing a bullish outlook for the XRP price. CrediBULL Crypto suggested that XRP could reach as high as $10 in this bull run while stating that there should be more than one wave of upside remaining.

Crypto analyst Dark Defender revealed that a weekly bull flag has appeared on the XRP price chart. The analyst further explained why XRP could hit double digits in this market cycle following this development. Weekly Bull Flag Appears On XRP Price Chart In an X post, Dark Defender stated that a weekly bull flag has now appeared on the weekly XRP price chart. He noted that this bull flag had earlier appeared on the daily chart when XRP was at $0.70, as the crypto targetted the $1.88 price level, which it eventually rallied to. With this bull flag on the weekly, the crypto analyst predicted that XRP could rally to double digits. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Bull Run: Analyst Reveals Why BTC Will Hit Its Top A Month From Now Below $150,000 His accompanying chart showed that the XRP price could rally to as high as $11 as it breaks out from this bull flag. XRP is expected to hit this price target in early 2025, between January and March. Dark Defender cautioned market participants that there will surely be some sideways price movement. However, the crypto analyst expects the ultimate targets to stay the same. Based on Dark Defender’s previous analysis, the $11 target is unlikely to be the market top for the XRP price, as the crypto analyst predicted that the crypto could rally as high as $18 in this bull run. For now, XRP continues to trade sideways, just as he warned that the crypto would do. The crypto had recorded a parabolic rally last month, recording a price gain of 281%. However, the XRP price has cooled off this month as it consolidates for its next leg up. Dark Defender previously highlighted $2.13 and $2.27 as key support levels to watch out for as XRP ranges. Meanwhile, the analyst mentioned $3.9 and $5.5 as the next targets XRP could reach on its next leg up. An “Optimistic” Target For XRP In an X post, crypto analyst Ali Martinez stated that $48.12 is an “optimistic” target for the XRP price. Meanwhile, he highlighted the $8.40 price level as a conservative target for XRP.

Based on this, Martinez stated that market participants should hope for a retest of $2.25 so they can buy the dip, with XRP targeting $4.40 on its next leg up. A rally to $4.40 will mark a new all-time high (ATH) for XRP. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.18, down over 11% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The XRP price action has played out notable volatility in the past eight or so weeks, with intense trading activity not seen in over six years. Following the U.S. presidential election on November 5, 2024, where Donald Trump secured victory, XRP’s value surged over 400%, reaching a peak of $2.90 on crypto exchange Binance on December 3. However, the XRP price has experienced a downturn in the past week. Interestingly, this XRP price correction seems to be playing out an ABC correction path, with technical analysis suggesting a more downturn before the next leg up. XRP Price Exhibiting ABC Correction The XRP price correction since reaching the $2.9 mark has been highlighted by an ABC pattern that is almost nearing its end. Particularly, this pattern constitutes two downtrend waves A and C and a minor uptrend wave B in between.

From there, it went on a minor uptrend wave B, which indicated that the bulls were still in action. Wave B culminated with a lower high at $2.65 on December 9, which translates to another 22% increase in four days. Since reaching this lower high, the XRP price has kicked off another correction path in the past 24 hours, giving rise to the notion of corrective wave C now in action. If a similar trend were to play out like that of wave A, we could see the XRP price correcting by another 25% from $2.65, which would put the bottom just below $2 before another bounce up. This is very logical, considering that the $2 price level serves as a psychological threshold that the bulls would be preventing a break below. Bullish Impulse Suggests Next Move To $2.8 And Beyond At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at $2.19 and is down by almost 10% in the past 24 hours. The ongoing wave C, which is the final leg of the ABC corrective pattern, could continue on a downtrend until it reaches resistance at $2. Technical indicators support this outlook, especially the Relative Strength Index (RSI).

This signals a cooling off of the bullish momentum that propelled XRP to its recent highs, paving the way for the corrective wave C to run its course. Despite this pullback, market dynamics suggest that a bounce from the $2 level is a strong possibility. Such a rebound could mark the beginning of a renewed bullish wave and drive the XRP price toward $2.80 and beyond. This scenario aligns with the broader outlook for XRP, which is still rolling in investor optimism regarding regulatory clarity after a new US presidential administration comes into power in January 2025.
