XRP To Claim $5.85: Here’s When?
Ripple (XRP) is currently undergoing phases of transformation. The first phase is currently in process as the new US SEC regime change is expected to end the ongoing SEC-Ripple legal spat, pushing the token push to new highs. The second phase involves the SEC approving the pending XRP ETFs, which could again catapult XRP’s price to new highs. The rising institutional interest in the token is also driving XRP to claim new price spots, provided the token leverages the market momentum well and steadily.
In the middle of this, one noteworthy analyst, Dark Defender on X, has claimed that Ripple is currently trying to break out from a 4-hour triangle, which could be pivotal for its future price path and trajectory.
Per Dark Defender, XRP’s third wave is currently targeting a new price spot of $5.85. The expert was quick to outline how XRP could majorly surge first to the $4.55 price level before gradually ascending towards hitting the $5 price spot.
Talking about the timeline in detail, Dark Defender shared how “next week” could prove pivotal to new Ripple price formation, with the token forging new price milestones.
“I expect #XRP to break out of the 4-hour triangle within 16-20 hours, upside. We set our weekly structure in August 2023, and the third wave targeted $5.85. Since then, we have used the same targets with an additional $4.55 level. Next week will be dynamic.”
