XRP Set for Major Surge: Analyst Says Third Elliott Wave Could Hit $22

Market analyst Charting Guy has projected a bullish trajectory for XRP, highlighting the potential for price surges driven by Elliott Wave theory. 

He made this assertion while analyzing XRP’s recent price movements on X. According to his projection, XRP is currently in the early stages of its third wave, a phase that historically signifies robust upward momentum.

Notably, XRP faced a significant downturn earlier this month, collapsing to a 16-month low of $0.3825 on July 5. This decline was triggered by a broader market downtrend, catalyzed by the German government’s Bitcoin sales. The drop marked the lowest price for XRP this year and the first time it traded below $0.40 since March 2023.

However, XRP has since staged an impressive recovery. From its $0.3825 low, XRP has risen to $0.6029, marking a 57.6% increase. This rebound aligns with the start of the third wave, as indicated by Charting Guy’s analysis.

XRP Elliott Wave Analysis

Charting Guy’s 2-day chart reveals the completion of Wave 2 with the July 5 drop to $0.3825. His projections suggest that XRP is now embarking on Wave 3, which is anticipated to push prices up to $6. 

 

Wave 3 is usually the most bullish wave. Several analysts have in the past predicted multiple bullish targets for XRP amid this third Elliott Wave. Last December, market watcher CryptoBull suggested that the Wave 3 could take XRP to $27. Most recently, Cryptobilbuwoo proposed that this wave could push XRP to a range of $21 to $45.

Meanwhile, following Wave 3, Charting Guy predicts a corrective Wave 4, which might see some price consolidation or a minor pullback. However, the overall bullish trend is expected to continue with Wave 5, potentially driving XRP prices to an impressive $22. 

Charting Guy confirmed that Wave 5 does not necessarily have to push XRP toward the $20 price level. According to him, this represents the most optimistic target. He sees a price goal of $8 to $13 as the more feasible main target.

XRP’s Current Position 

A closer look at XRP’s daily chart indicates that the token is currently in a bullish but decisive positive. The chart incorporates Bollinger Bands and the Average True Range (ATR) indicator.

The Bollinger Bands show that XRP’s current price of $0.6029 is between the upper band at $0.6759 and the middle band at $0.5324, reflecting a relatively stable volatility range. This suggests a bullish sentiment as the price gravitates towards the upper band, with the lower band positioned at $0.3890.

The ATR, a volatility indicator, currently stands at 0.03496. This value indicates the average range of price movement over a specified period, suggesting a moderate level of market volatility. A higher ATR typically signifies increased volatility, which can be associated with significant price movements.
