Has XRP Price Quietly Set Up A Rally To $1?
XRP lagged behind the broader cryptocurrency market in 2024, posting a year-to-date decline of more than 15%, while other assets gained about 20% over the same period.
However, a mix of fractal and technical indicators points to the potential for a major XRP (XRP) price rebound in the coming weeks.
XRP's bullish reversal setup suggests a 100% profit
The weekly chart of XRP is showing signs of a bullish reversal, taking the form of a head and shoulders pattern.
The technical setup shows a left shoulder formed between May and December 2022, a head in June 2023, marking the low point, and a developing right shoulder from August 2024.
A critical neckline, a downtrend that connects the shoulders and head highs, sits near the $0.65–$0.66 range.
According to technical forecasts, a successful breakout above the neckline will see the price of XRP rise to $0.90 to $1.00 in 2024, which is calculated by adding the difference between the neckline and the head low (approximately $0.42) to the breakout point. These aggressive targets are 100% above current price levels.
Adding to the potential breakout, XRP is trading above the 50-week (red) and 200-week (blue) moving averages (EMA). A critical march beyond these levels reinforces the young man's narrative.
However, downsides remain if XRP price pulls back after testing the neckline as a resistance. This level coincides with multi-year downtrend line resistance.
Balanced triangle on XRP monthly chart
A large symmetrical triangle on the monthly chart is another bullish sign, which – as noted by veteran market analyst Charles Bulkowski – often leads to large profits.
If XRP breaks above the upper trendline, it could indicate a broader bullish trend. The expected upside is estimated by multiplying the height of the triangle by the widest point (roughly the difference between $3.90 and $0.17, or $3.73) and adding that to the breakout level.
Based on this calculation, a move up from the current level to $0.53 could target $4.20 or higher as indicated by the Fibonacci retracements on the chart. The nearest potential resistance is in the 0.236-0.382 Fib range, or around $0.71–1.05, coinciding with the IH&S bullish reversal target.

The 50-month EMA at $0.526 also acts as volatile support. Staying above this level increases the potential for XRP to reach $1 in late 2024 or early 2025.
