Notable economist and Bitcoin analyst Mikybull observes a symmetrical triangle in XRP’s monthly trading pattern since its drop from the $1.96 peak in April 2021. Within this triangle, XRP’s cycle of lower highs and higher lows affects its monthly relative strength index (RSI).

Mikybull notes a key resistance level on the monthly RSI, hinting at an impending breakout for XRP. Referring to 2014-2017 data, he highlights a similar scenario where XRP faced downward pressure, with the RSI in decline until February 2017, coinciding with XRP’s surge to an all-time high.

Current Trends Pointing Towards Breakout

Drawing parallels, Mikybull predicts a replication of this pattern, emphasizing the necessity for the downtrend affecting the monthly RSI to break for bullish momentum. He notes a series of retests by XRP on the lower trendline, observed in both past and present scenarios.

These retests, occurring thrice within the current phase, serve as precursors to previous breakout events. Additionally, a resurgence of whale accumulation in XRP has been observed since March, indicating growing confidence among large holders.

Abdullah Nassif, host of The Good Morning Crypto show, proposes a range between $13 and $17 based on the recent tightening of Bollinger Bands on the monthly timeframe.
