Ichimoku Clouds Indicate XRP Price Is Ready To Break Descending Triangle | Bitcoinist.com

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure A recent technical analysis leveraging the Ichimoku Cloud indicator suggests that the XRP price is gearing up to break out from a long-standing Descending Triangle chart pattern. While prices previously dipped below the $2 mark, analysts remain optimistic on XRP’s outlook, forecasting new upside targets and a sustained rally as bullish signals begin to align.

XRP Price Edges Toward Major Breakout Zone

XRP’s weekly chart, presented by X (formerly Twitter) crypto analyst Dark Defender, is signaling the potential start of a major bullish move as the cryptocurrency approaches the apex of a Descending Triangle formation. After months of consolidation, the price is now testing the upper boundary of this pattern, with momentum building from both price structure and technical indicators.

Recently, the XRP price has begun to break into the lower region of the green cloud—a move that historically precedes bullish trend shifts when confirmed with other technical signals

The chart also shows XRP maintaining a rounded cup formation that began after the previous corrective structure labeled A-B-C. This cup formation reinforces the cryptocurrency’s bullish case and suggests accumulation over the last several months. As this cup pattern nears completion, XRP is also forming what appears to be the second wave in an impulsive five-wave Elliott sequence.

This would mark a significant shift in market structure, confirming the potential end of XRP’s long-standing consolidation and the resumption of bullish momentum

Interestingly, Dark Defender notes that June and July are expected to be a “hot” period for XRP. The analyst closely watches these months for signs of a breakout confirmation, mainly as XRP trades just above the long-term support zone between $2.07 and $1.88. These levels have held strong through recent dips and also align with the 26.3% Fibonacci Retracement level of the previous cycle

Path To $5.85 Opens Up

If XRP rallies to $3.61, Dark Defender forecasts that the next phase of the Elliott Wave count suggests that XRP could surge even higher, potentially reaching the 261.8% Fibonacci Extension level near $5.85. This price zone has now emerged as a significant upside target in the current projection, representing the top of a potential Wave 3-4-5 structure

Once this wave completes, a short-term correction is expected in Wave 4, likely forming a healthy pullback before the final leg higher. The anticipated Wave 5 is projected to be a parabolic move, potentially driving the XRP price to a new ATH around $5.85.
