Market Veteran Says Don’t Sleep on XRP For The End Of Year

A well-known market veteran has advised investors not to sleep on XRP for the end of the year, as he expects a massive run after the trendline breakout.

For context, XRP has started to show signs of life after two difficult weeks. It closed at $2.96 yesterday, its strongest finish this month and its highest close in two weeks. 

This move has triggered optimism among analysts who now believe XRP could be eyeing a bigger breakout. Heisenberg, a market commentator who adopts his pseudonym from the Breaking Bad character, sees the current setup as a level that could send XRP toward double-digit prices before the year ends.

XRP’s Historical Trendline Breakouts

Data from his chart shows that for most of 2024, XRP stayed trapped below $1, trading quietly in a long base. However, in November of that year, it finally broke free following the U.S. elections, exploding higher in a sharp rally to a $2.9 peak in early December.

After this first run, XRP slipped into a downward-sloping trendline through December and into early January 2025. That pattern eventually broke to the upside, setting off the next rally, which culminated in a top of $3.4 by Jan. 16, 2025.

However, from February to April 2025, XRP repeated the same playbook with a bigger falling trendline. Again, price moved lower in a controlled decline, only to break upward once more. 

The biggest move of the cycle came late June 2025, when XRP surged in a parabolic run that peaked above $3.6 in July. This rally drove the Relative Strength Index into extreme overbought territory, hinting that a cooldown was due.

XRP Eyeing Another Trendline Breakout

Since topping out in July, XRP has slipped into another downward trendline. On Sept. 7, the token closed at $2.96, sitting just under the upper edge of this pattern. Interestingly, RSI has cooled off to a neutral 48.86, which leaves room for a fresh burst of momentum. 

If XRP pushes through resistance near $3.05 to $3.20, the chart suggests a move toward $3.8 to $4.2 as a first target. If momentum builds the way it did in earlier runs, XRP could stretch as far as $10 before the end of the year. When someone doubted the possibility of a $10 price, Heisenberg pushed back.

Notably, the setup looks familiar because it has played out three times already: an explosive rally, a falling trendline, then another breakout. This consistency has strengthened the bullish outlook. 

Currently, the major support sits around $2.6. If the price drops under that level with force, the bullish case weakens. However, as long as XRP stays above that floor, the chart favors another upside push.

Other Analysts Remain Bullish on XRP

Meanwhile, other analysts share this view. Gordon, a veteran trader, noted that XRP has been grinding sideways at these levels for months, and he believes the next move could send it straight to $6 in a hurry.

Hov, another analyst, argued that XRP stands at a tipping point. He sees two scenarios: either XRP launches into a third wave of its larger trend, or it keeps moving sideways in a running flat or triangle. He expects clarity soon.

XRP is either about to rip into the 3 of 3 here (blue)

or we still have some sideways action(yellow)

Just because I have the yellow going down into that support level it could easily be a running flat or running triangle

We'll know pretty soon which is in play pic.twitter.com/uu62c934VX

Moreover, CryptoInsightUK highlighted XRP’s performance against gold. He pointed out that while XRP rejected the 0.702 retracement, it continues to hold previous range highs as support. He also highlighted a bounce from support on the daily chart and a bullish RSI cross, both of which suggest strength.
