XRP Price Prediction: Could a Support Level Breakdown Send XRP to $1.55?
The cryptocurrency market experienced a downturn following recent US trade announcements, impacting XRP’s price. XRP fell 4.08% in the past day, prompting concerns among analysts. Renowned market analyst, CasiTrades, highlights a critical support level for XRP at $2.25 – $2.26. A breach below this level, coinciding with a Fibonacci retracement level (0.382), could trigger a significant price correction, potentially pushing XRP as low as $1.55 – $1.90, according to CasiTrades’ analysis based on Elliott Wave Theory.
This potential drop would erase gains made since the market’s April uptrend. However, holding above the $2.25 – $2.26 support could signal resilience, potentially leading to a price rally towards $2.70 and beyond, potentially reaching the previous high of $3.84. The analyst’s assessment is based on the 1:1 Fibonacci extension of the corrective C-wave pattern.
Currently trading at $2.33, XRP is still up 9.77% over the past month, indicating recent market entrants are largely in profit. Adding to the positive sentiment, Volatility shares launched an XRP futures ETF on May 22nd, tracking the daily performance of XRP futures contracts without leverage. With a market cap of $233.58 billion, XRP remains the 4th largest cryptocurrency and 3rd largest altcoin.
