XRP traded largely sideways on Thursday, with high market depth keeping prices confined.
Notably, XRP has been trading in a tight range of $1.45–$1.60, showing muted intraday volatility and a lack of clear directional momentum. However, over the past week, the token has edged higher by nearly 4% despite heavy selling pressure across most major cryptocurrencies.
Meanwhile, amid this lackluster price action, analysts are highlighting potential opportunities, suggesting XRP could surge sharply in the coming days.
Analyst CryptoBull noted on Wednesday that XRP’s long-term momentum indicators are signaling a rare buying opportunity. He emphasized that the relative strength index (RSI) on both weekly and monthly charts has dipped below levels last seen during XRP’s 2020 market bottom, claiming the setup suggests XRP has already carved out a bottom and that future targets are “very high.”
He further argued that the amount of room available for RSI expansion could propel price “well above $10 very soon,” framing the current zone as a potential pre-breakout base rather than a sign of weakness.
Elsewhere, analyst ChartNerd described the $1.80–$2 resistance zone as a critical pivot for XRP’s multi-year trajectory. The analyst argued that while an initial rally into the zone could generate hype, the true signal will come from how the price behaves on a retest.
In his view, the reaction around $1.80–$2 may become “the single biggest decision point” for determining where XRP ultimately trends into 2026. A strong hold could validate a structural reversal, while rejection might reinforce a prolonged consolidation phase.
Meanwhile, according to analyst CryptoInsight UK, XRP is showing strong signs of a bullish breakout, also pointing to the $1.80–$2 resistance.
“Obviously we need this continue today and hold into the close, but it’s difficult not to be bullish here.” The analyst stated.
He added that XRP has “erased 9 weeks of negative price action vs Bitcoin” and is now crossing bullish on the weekly RSI, supported by a strong weekly Bullish Engulfing candle.
The pundit further noted structural parallels with a Wyckoff re-accumulation pattern, suggesting potential for significant upside. He observed that XRP may be starting an impulsive wave vs Ethereum, arguing that the token could lead altcoins this cycle and challenge ETH as the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap.
At press time, XRP was trading at $1.40, reflecting a 0.79% drop in the past 24 hours.
