The XRP price has been one of the best altcoin performers over the last few months, going from below $0.6 to over $2.8 in this time period. Nevertheless, like the rest of the crypto market, the altcoin recently succumbed to bearish pressure, pushing it back toward $2. Despite this, the XRP price has continued to show strength, and recent developments on the altcoin’s chart show that the bullish momentum is far from over. XRP Price Shows Bullish Continuation So far, the XRP price has been ranging in a tight channel as bulls have maintained a tight hold on the $2 support. A crypto analyst on the TradingView platform points this out in a recent analysis that paints XRP in a bullish light despite the crash. Related Reading: Litecoin Sees 2M Bollinger Bands Tighten – What A Move Above $130 Will Mean For Price With the price retracement, $2 has been established as support, while the most notable resistance is now sitting below $3. Given the recent developments, the crypto analyst believes this is bullish for the XRP price. This is because the altcoin has been setting a bullish continuation move on the daily chart. This bullish continuation is known to be bullish for crypto assets, especially when it ends in a breakout. For now, the XRP price will need to break out of the current bullish channel to confirm this move. If this happens, then XRP could be looking at an over 300% move from its current price level. “Once we get a break out of that bullish channel we will break all time highs well into a new all time high,” the crypto analyst said. How High Can Price Go From Here? If the XRP price were to successfully break out of the bullish channel from here, then it signals momentum that could send it to a new all-time high. Currently, the altcoin is sitting around 37% below its all-time high price of $3.84 set back in 2027. This means that an 80% move from here would mean new all-time highs. Related Reading: Solana Price Will Complete 1,800% Surge To $4,000 With This Formation: Analyst According to the crypto analyst, the breakout would see the XRP price more than double. They predict that the price could rise as high as $10-$11 off this bullish momentum, which would mean a 5x jump and the first time XRP would be touching double-digits. As for when this move might happen, the chart puts it in Q1 2025. The first quarter of the year has been known to be bullish for cryptocurrencies, so this falls into place for the cryptocurrency. The last two years have seen XRP close out Q1 in the green, with 58.8% gains in 2023 and 2.37% gains in 2024. So far, the XRP price is up 15.9% in 2025, suggesting that it will follow the same path as the previous years. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

A crypto analyst has issued a new XRP price prediction, forecasting a potential breakout that could see the prominent cryptocurrency skyrocketing to $4.9. With the formation of a classic bull flag pattern and the 1-Day 50 Moving Average (MA) acting as a bullish catalyst, the analyst is increasingly confident that XRP will reach new All-Time Highs (ATH) in 2025. How The 1-Day 50 MA Will Propel XRP Price To $4.93 The 50-day MA is a technical indicator used to track the average closing price of a cryptocurrency over the last 50 trading days. According to Dr. Dovetail, a TradingView crypto analyst, the 1-day 50 MA, indicated by the orange line in his XRP price chart, has risen to the lower boundary of a bull flag pattern. Related Reading: Weekly Chart Shows That Dogecoin Price Is Primed To Cross $11 In 2025, Here’s How The analyst suggested that XRP’s price action, which has been in a consolidation phase after its big pump, triggered the formation of the classic bull flag pattern. This bullish continuation pattern typically occurs after a strong upward movement, followed by a price correction that leads to consolidation. Historically, when a cryptocurrency consolidates near strong moving averages like the 1-day 50 MA, it indicates the readiness for a price breakout. Looking at his technical chart, the 1-day 50 MA plays a crucial role in Dr. Dovetail’s analysis and bullish XRP price prediction. The analyst believes this Moving Average can push the XRP price out of its consolidation nest to its next bullish target. Based on the confluence of technical patterns and indicators, the dotted ascending line in the analyst’s XRP chart indicates a potential price target of $4.93. Dr. Dovetail extended his forecast, highlighting that XRP could achieve this ambitious all-time high before February 2025. The XRP price chart has also indicated a volume bar showing relatively stable activity during the cryptocurrency’s consolidation phase. Additionally, the Stochastic Relative Strength Index (RSI) at the bottom of the chart suggests that XRP may be oversold, supporting the potential for a breakout. While Dr. Dovetail acknowledged that his predictions were not financial advice, the TradingView analyst expressed confidence that the current technical setup in the XRP chart could push its price to $4.93 this year. This target would represent a 105% surge from XRP’s current market value, underscoring a significant move upward from its consolidation phase. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Price To $0.000045?

Delving deeper into its price action and ongoing consolidation phase, XRP experienced a severe downturn after it surged from $0.5 to above $2 in November 2024. Over the past few weeks, the cryptocurrency has struggled with volatility as it aims to reclaim its all-time high of $3.84, attained during the 2021 bull run. Nevertheless, XRP still holds its position as the third-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com
The XRP price ended the month of December at around $2.08 after a period of back and forth between gains and declines. Although it ended December just above the $2 mark, the XRP price went through a bullish period in the first half of the month, which saw it peaking around $2.9, its peak price in over six years. Despite ending the month at a 28% decline from this six-year peak, XRP has nonetheless achieved the highest monthly candle body close in its history. This interesting phenomenon was noted by crypto analyst Tony Severino, who also suggested that the XRP price is on track to reach $13 this cycle. XRP Price Completes Highest Candle Body Close In History XRP ended December at a 6.94% gain from where it started, building upon an unexpected 281.7% increase in November, according to data from CryptoRank. This period of price increases saw XRP receiving considerable attention from crypto analysts and investors, with various predictions of a continued bullish momentum into 2025. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bearish Flag Pattern Says Crash Is Far From Over Despite Crash To $91,000 However, Bitcoin’s failure above the $100,000 price mark seems to have stalled XRP’s momentum alongside many other cryptocurrencies. This caused XRP to spend the latter half of December in a correction plus consolidation path. Nevertheless, the bullish trajectory remains valid for XRP, with recent technical analysis by crypto analyst Tony Severino also lending voice to this. The XRP price registered its current all-time high of $3.40 in January 2018 but closed out the month at $1.124 to kickstart consecutive bearish candles on the monthly timeframe. As pointed out on the XRP monthly candles by Tony Severino, December 2024 was the highest monthly close for the XRP price. Although the cryptocurrency failed to break past its current all-time high during December, it managed to accomplish this notable milestone. While this isn’t much of a technical indicator, it lends voice to the lingering bullish momentum surrounding the XRP price, which has prevented further price declines below the $2 mark. Technical Analysis Points To $13 Price Target Crypto analyst Tony Severino also highlighted an interesting technical pattern playing out on XRP’s daily candlestick timeframe. According to the analyst, a bull flag seems to be emerging after XRP’s price correction in December. Related Reading: Ethereum’s Large Consolidation Trend Points To Possible Price Explosion To $8,000 The bull flag pattern identified by Severino is a technical setup often associated with significant price surges. It is characterized by the steep upward movement in November, followed by a period of consolidation in a downward-sloping channel in December. A breakout to the upside from the bull flag pattern typically leads to a continuation of the initial rally. In the case of XRP, Tony Severino projected a breakout that would see XRP surge to $13 in the coming months. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.37 and is up by about 12% in the past 24 hours. Reaching the projected $13 target would translate to a 450% gain from the current price level.

Crypto analyst Dark Defender has revealed a pattern in which the XRP price has formed on the daily chart. In his analysis, he highlighted the $1.95 price level as being crucial as it could determine XRP’s next move. XRP Price Forms Descending Triangle On The Daily Chart In an X post, Dark Defender mentioned that the XRP price has formed a descending triangle on the daily time frame. He added that a breakout is imminent in this pattern as long as $1.95 is protected. The analyst highlighted $2.22, $2.72, $2.90, and $5.85 as the initial targets XRP could reach if the price breakout occurs. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Guns For A Mid-High Timeframe Reversal Against Bitcoin In Bullish Q1 2025 Meanwhile, the crucial support levels for the XRP price are $1.95, $1.88, and $1.63. Based on an earlier analysis by Dark Defender, XRP could still rally to double digits in the long term. The analyst highlighted a bull flag that had formed on the daily chart, noting that it was similar to the one that had earlier formed on the 4-hour timeframe. Dark Defender stated that the bull flag that formed on the daily chart targets the Fibonacci Level of $5.85 and penetrates toward $10.1979. The crypto analyst remarked that this is a historical pattern approach and the Fibonacci Wave. He added that the last Fibonacci targets stand at $18.22 and $36, with no significant targets in between. The analyst’s accompanying chart showed that the XRP price could reach these targets in the first half of 2025. While analyzing XRP’s yearly chart, Dark Defender stated that a God Candle awaits next year. This came as he noted that XRP had enjoyed a breakout year in 2024, having consolidated for around six years. XRP boasts a year-to-date (YTD) gain of over 228%. From An RSI Perspective Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto provided insights into the XRP price action from a Relative Strength Index (RSI) perspective. The analyst stated that 74, 70, and 65 are the three key RSI levels to watch out for. In the most bullish scenario, he remarked that XRP needs to ideally reach 88 or even 96.5 and higher for the RSI curvature to continue trending upward. Related Reading: Legendary Analyst Peter Brandt Says Bitcoin Price Could Crash To $78,000, Here’s Why Egrag Crypto said it would be “incredibly” bullish if the XRP price bounces from the 74 range. Meanwhile, a dip to 70 could indicate bearish momentum. However, he added that a bounce from this RSI level is essential for continuing the bull run. Likewise, a dip to 65 is also bearish for XRP, but as long as the crypto doesn’t drop below this level, then a bounce would indicate a significant move ahead. The crypto analyst warned that closing below the 65 RSI level could signal the end of the bull run. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2, down over 3% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP has reached a critical $1.9 support level, a price point that could define its short-term trajectory. At the same time, the Composite Trend Oscillator indicator is signaling oversold conditions, hinting at the possibility of a price rebound. Oversold readings typically suggest that selling pressure may have peaked, paving the way for buyers to regain control. The spotlight is now on the $1.9 support level—will it act as a launchpad for a bullish reversal, or will bears push XRP into deeper declines? As the market watches closely, this combination of technical signals and price action could set the stage for XRP’s next major move. $1.9 Support Role In XRP Price Action The $1.9 support level has emerged as a pivotal zone for XRP, acting as a foundation for its price stability amid ongoing market turbulence. Support levels are essential in technical analysis, serving as points where buying pressure is typically strong enough to halt or reverse a downtrend. For XRP, the $1.9 level represents a psychological threshold and holds significant historical importance in its price action. Related Reading: XRP Price Momentum Stalls: Bulls Fails to Break Through Additionally, this level has been tested multiple times in the past, demonstrating its resilience as a reliable anchor for bullish recoveries. Traders and investors often view such critical support zones as opportunities for entry, anticipating a possible bounce that might lead to upward momentum. However, its role extends beyond just being a price floor. It also serves as an indicator of market sentiment and the balance of power between bulls and bears. Currently, as XRP approaches this key level, the question remains whether it can sustain the buying interest needed to spark a recovery. A successful defense of the $1.9 support would reaffirm its strength and likely attract fresh buying pressure, setting the stage for a rally toward higher resistance levels. However, a breach of this critical support could signal a shift in momentum, leading to more declines and triggering stop-loss orders from traders, which may accelerate the downward move. The Bigger Picture: What Current Setup Means For Its Future XRP’s current technical setup offers crucial insights into its next potential direction. The $1.9 support level is a key zone, with oversold signals suggesting a rebound. If this support level holds, it is likely to restore bullish confidence, sparking an upward movement toward the $2.9 resistance level and beyond. Related Reading: XRP Price Crash: Analyst Says Don’t Get Distracted As RSI Is Still Above A Bullish 50% However, if this level fails to hold, it could trigger additional bearish momentum, pushing the price toward the next lower support zone at $1.7. XRP breaking below this level could lead to a retest of additional support levels. Featured image from Medium, chart from Tradingview.com
Egrag Crypto, a well-known crypto analyst on the social media platform X, recently shared an optimistic price prediction for XRP. According to the analyst, technical analysis of the XRP price on the weekly timeframe suggests that XRP is on track to reach a price target of $15 by May 5, 2025. Related Reading: CME Gap Threatens Bitcoin With Potential Drop To $77,000 – Analyst The analysis, which is rooted in Fibonacci levels and Elliott Wave theory, offers a long-term bullish outlook for the altcoin despite its recent decline over the past week. This is because the XRP price has been on a decline since the past seven days alongside the rest of the crypto market. Fibonacci And Elliott Wave Analysis For XRP According to Egrag Crypto, the Fibonacci 1.618 level indicates that May 5, 2025, could be a pivotal date for XRP’s price trajectory in the long term. His technical analysis uses auto-Fib time zones and trend-based Fibonacci on the weekly XRP timeframe price chart. Interestingly, this timeline aligns closely with the general sentiment surrounding XRP, as many crypto participants are currently looking forward to a surge in the first half of 2025. As such, the analyst also noted that it remains uncertain whether the predicted surge to $15 will occur before or after this predicted date. Speaking of price timeline, the $15 target is based on actual calculations and the Elliot Wave theory. According to the analyst, XRP is currently in Wave 4, which is the second corrective phase in the Elliot Wave theory. Once this phase is completed, Wave 5 is expected to be the next major move. Wave 5 is traditionally known for being the third impulse wave that pushes the asset’s price to new highs. To estimate the magnitude of Wave 5, the analyst examined the performance of the previous impulse waves 1 and 3. Notably, Waves 1 and 3 were highlighted by price increases of 63.39% and 570%, respectively. Using these figures, Egrag Crypto applied a common Elliott Wave principle that suggests Wave 5 often equals 61.8% of the combined gains of Waves 1 and 3. By applying this school of thought and punching in the numbers, Wave 5 is expected to result in an approximate price increase of around 391% for XRP. In terms of a price target, this translates to a price range around $15. Is A Long-Term Bullish Trajectory Still Valid For XRP? Despite XRP’s current decline over the past seven days, mirroring a broader market downturn, this technical analysis provides a counterpoint to the short-term bearish outlook. Particularly, XRP has been on a decline since it peaked at $2.82 on December 3. Related Reading: XRP Forms Bullish Flag Pattern: What’s Next For The Altcoin?

XRP is capturing attention across the crypto market as it forms a bullish flag pattern, a classic technical setup often signaling potential upside. This development comes after a strong price surge, followed by a period of consolidation that mirrors the shape of a flag. Such patterns are typically interpreted as continuation signals, hinting that the recent upward momentum could resume if key conditions are met. Currently trading within this flag’s boundaries, XRP appears to be gathering strength for its next big move. A successful breakout would likely validate the bullish scenario, positioning the altcoin for significant gains and sparking renewed optimism in the market. Conversely, a breakdown below the lower boundary could undermine hopes, paving the way for a possible retracement. Analyzing The Bullish Flag: A Closer Look At XRP’s Pattern The bullish flag pattern is a reliable continuation signal in technical analysis, suggesting further upside potential. For XRP, this pattern has gained attention as it indicates the cryptocurrency may be preparing for its next upward move. Related Reading: XRP Price Takes a 5% Hit: Is More Downside Ahead? XRP’s price initially surges, creating a “flagpole” driven by strong positive momentum and high volume. Following this is a consolidation phase where the price moves within a narrow range, typically downward or sideways. This consolidation represents a temporary pause in the uptrend, allowing the market to digest gains. It demonstrates resilience, suggesting that selling pressure is manageable and the bullish trend could resume. Furthermore, the formation is validated when the price breaks out above the upper boundary of the flag, resuming its prior upward trajectory. Such a breakout would signal renewed buying interest and the potential to test higher price levels. Key indicators to watch include increased trading volume during the breakout as this confirms market participation and bullish conviction. Additionally, XRP must sustain its momentum above the resistance level to avoid the risk of a false breakout. Key Resistance And Support Levels: Navigating The Breakout Potential If XRP’s price breaks out above the upper boundary of the bullish flag pattern, it could signal the continuation of the uptrend and open the door for a move toward higher price levels, with the next major resistance zone near $2.90. A successful breakout above this level would reinforce the upside trend, possibly leading to new price highs. Related Reading: XRP Consolidation Could End Once It Clears $2.60 – Top Analyst Expects $4 Soon However, if XRP breaks below the lower boundary of the flag, the immediate support to watch is $1.90. A decisive break below this level could signal a shift in market sentiment, potentially leading to further downside movement. Such a breach would suggest that the bullish momentum has faltered, and the next support zone might be tested, which may trigger additional selling pressure.

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

XRP Price Could Crash As Head And Shoulder Pattern Forms In a TradingView post, TradinSides predicted that XRP could crash as the price could form the Head and Shoulders pattern, driving the crypto to $2.2 or below. The analyst stated that this price correction could happen if some bullish fundamentals don’t happen for the altcoin as expected. The fundamentals that TradinSides cited include the RLUSD stablecoin and the upcoming XRP ETFs.

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.

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.

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
