XRP Shows 2017 Death Cross Signal Potentially Leading to $9 Price Target

XRP has rebounded from $2.08 to $2.4, marking over 15% gains after testing the $2 support level. Historical analysis suggests a potential breakout could target up to $9.

Technical Signals and Historical Patterns

A death cross appears on the XRP daily chart, indicating bearish sentiment as the 50-day moving average falls below the 200-day moving average. However, past performance in 2017 showed similar signals preceded significant price increases:

  • In 2017, XRP rose over 1,350% following a comparable death cross.
  • The current setup mirrors the 2017 descending triangle pattern before the bullish breakout.
  • Analysts suggest that a similar rally could push XRP to new highs at the 1.5 Fibonacci extension near $9, representing a 325% increase from current levels.

Current Technical Outlook

XRP’s technical indicators are neutral but optimistic:

  • RSI at 54.799 indicates room for growth before reaching overbought conditions.
  • MACD shows mild upward pressure at 0.197.
  • ADX is at 30.423, suggesting potential trend strength.

XRP is currently trading at $2.38. The bullish outlook hinges on sustaining institutional interest alongside the technical breakout.
