XRP’s 30% Jump To $2.8: Analyst Says This ‘Classic Confirmation’ Must Happen First

Crypto analyst CasiTrades has predicted that the XRP price could record a 30% rally to $2.8. She further revealed what the altcoin needs to do first to gain momentum to reach this level, which could pave the way to new highs. 

In an X post, CasiTrades shared an accompanying chart that showed that the XRP price could soon rally to as high as $2.8. The analyst indicated that the $2.25 support zone will decide the altcoin’s next move. She said that she is looking for that classic confirmation, whereby XRP breaks $2.25 and then comes back to test it as support. 

CasiTrades remarked that the flip of $2.25 as support could be fast, signaling that the market is ready for continuation. She predicts that the flip of $2.25 could open the door to $2.69. The analyst added that it is possible that the XRP price trends closer towards $2.69. This could be near $2.45, with a final exhausted high at the resistance fib. Based on her accompanying chart, a rally to $2.8 could also be in play. 

Commenting on the current XRP price action, the analyst stated that the XRP price continues to respect the 0.382 retracement, which she claimed is the exact apex of the consolidation. She further remarked that every reaction at this current level reinforces how significant the range is. CasiTrades added that the test and bounce off the top of the upper trendline indicates that the market is gearing up for another run at the $2.25 resistance. 

She also said that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) will be crucial at each of these resistance prices to monitor exhaustion or strength. However, the analyst is confident that the bullish structure is still valid for the XRP price. The altcoin simply needs to hold the 0.382 retracement level, flip $2.25, and then it can rally to the upside.

In an X post, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto outlined the short-term targets for the XRP price. He stated that a close above $2.35 would be bullish for the altcoin. Meanwhile, a close above $2.42 would be super bullish for XRP. A close above these targets would also be significant as it would mean that the altcoin has flipped the $2.25 resistance, which CasiTrades highlighted. 

In the long term, the crypto analyst is confident that the XRP price can reach double digits. He recently predicted that the altcoin could reach between $9.5 and $37.5 in this market cycle. He alluded to historical cycles as the reason XRP could reach these targets. 

At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.24, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
