Cryptocurrencies have largely exhibited sideways trading recently, with few making significant moves, such as MakerDAO’s $MKR. Yet, $XRP, the XRP Ledger’s native token, seems to be treading the same waters as most cryptocurrencies. However, a prominent crypto analyst suggests that a breakout might be on the horizon for XRP.
CoinsKid, a popular analyst with over 270,000 subscribers on YouTube, recently highlighted a key technical pattern emerging on the XRP price chart. The analyst pointed out that a “head and shoulders” pattern has formed on the XRP chart. For those unfamiliar, this pattern is a tool for technical analysts to anticipate a potential trend shift. It depicts three peaks: the central peak (the head) is higher than the two surrounding lower peaks (shoulders). Typically, this pattern signals a bearish reversal, meaning the asset might pivot from an uptrend to a downtrend.
Interpreting this pattern, CoinsKid believes that if XRP adheres to this trajectory, its price could plummet to $0.46. However, in a twist, CoinsKid also identified an ascending triangle pattern on the XRP chart. An ascending triangle often indicates a bullish sentiment, hinting at a possible continuation of an uptrend. A consistent resistance line and an upward-sloping support line characterize this pattern. The pattern culminates when the asset price surpasses the resistance line with considerable volume. According to CoinsKid, this could propel XRP towards a significant resistance point.
Investment products centered on XRP have also witnessed inflows, especially from institutional players. In the past week alone, these products attracted over $700,000. A year-to-date analysis reveals that while Ethereum-centric products experienced outflows exceeding $115 million, Solana-centric products have gained $26 million. XRP-centric products attracted $14 million during the same timeframe, amassing a total assets under management of $60 million.
In conclusion, while most cryptocurrencies remain stagnant, XRP shows patterns that could herald significant price movements. Only time will reveal whether these predictions materialize.
