Wave 3 Target Suggests That The XRP Price Is Headed For $10

Crypto analyst XForce has predicted that the XRP price could rally to $10 on a wave 3 impulsive move to the upside. The analyst also indicated that the bottom was in for XRP even as the crypto market remains in a downtrend. 

In an X post, XForce told XRP holders to get ready for a rally to $10 or higher, which he described as a conservative wave 3 target. He noted that there are minor market inefficiencies in the local timeframes for the XRP price. However, the analyst added that the macro chart shows clear accumulation and a solid price floor after almost a year of distribution. 

Crypto analyst CasiTrades had also predicted that the XRP price could rally to as high as $10 on the wave 3 move. However, she predicted that XRP would crash to as low as $1.4 first to complete the macro wave 2 correction, which had begun around the largest liquidation event on October 10. 

XForce indicated that this projected crash to $1.4 for the XRP price was unlikely to happen. The analyst opined that the major low was in and alluded to the macro chart, which showed that the low had been broken, but XRP bounced hard from it. He added that XRP could stay in this current range for more distribution before the next leg up, but believes that predictions about a further downtrend are all “noise.”

The XRP price has continued to range between $2.4 and $2.6 as the market recovers from the October 10 crash, which saw XRP drop to as low as $0.77 on Binance. Meanwhile, it also dropped below the psychological $2 level on other exchanges. 

Crypto analyst CasiTrades doubled down on her prediction that the XRP price would witness one final crash before a rally to the upside. She noted that the altcoin is reacting exactly as expected, having rejected the Wave 4 resistance near $2.68. She added that the price is now turning bearish and the RSI is making a new low, which is starting to confirm that Wave 5 down is underway. 

CasiTrades stated that breaking below $2.42 would confirm continuation toward the lower targets at $2.03 and $1.65. These two lower levels are said to have alignment with the Wave 5 extension. The analyst again indicated that the XRP price could drop to at least $1.65, which she noted is the macro .618 retracement. 

CasiTrades opined that this projected crash should complete the final wave of the correction before a massive wave 3 impulse to the upside. She added that once the bottom forms, the next impulse should be “fast and obvious,” with the XRP price cutting through resistance on the way to new highs. 

At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.48, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
