Crypto markets often test investors the most when confidence begins to fade. XRP holders have faced that challenge in recent weeks as price corrections and market hesitation created fresh doubts about the asset’s next major move. However, some analysts believe the bigger picture remains firmly intact, arguing that short-term weakness may be part of a much larger bullish setup.
Crypto analyst JD recently shared that view on X, telling followers that XRP’s macro chart structure still looks strong despite the ongoing retracement. JD, known for previously calling XRP’s major run to $3.37—a move he said delivered a 12x return for some investors—stated that he plans to make another major top call once the market confirms that the current retracement has ended.
XRP’s Macro Structure Still Holds
JD stressed that XRP’s higher-timeframe chart remains bullish from a macro perspective. He argued that traders focusing only on daily price swings risk missing the broader trend that continues to shape the asset’s long-term direction.
$XRP – Chart structure still looks intact on a MACRO perspective
Once End of Retracement is confirmed..
I'll call next top like how I did when I called the 12x to $3.37 that made "some" of us VERY WEALTHY!🎯🙏

In his post, he stated that “chart structure still looks intact on a MACRO perspective,” signaling that he does not see the recent pullback as a breakdown of the bullish cycle. Instead, he views the correction as part of a normal market process before the next upward move begins.
This perspective reflects a common principle in technical analysis. Strong assets often retrace after major rallies, testing support levels before resuming their climb. Analysts use these periods to identify whether price action represents weakness or healthy consolidation.
Why Retracement Confirmation Matters
JD made it clear that he is waiting for one thing before making his next major XRP call: confirmation that the retracement has ended.
Retracements allow markets to reset after aggressive upward moves. They remove excess leverage, shake out weak hands, and create stronger foundations for sustainable growth. Many traders refer to sudden, sharp dips during these phases as liquidity grabs, in which the price temporarily drops, triggering panic selling before reversing higher.

JD has previously pointed to these market behaviors as part of XRP’s structure. Rather than treating every pullback as bearish, he believes investors should watch for confirmation signals that support has held, and momentum is returning.
XRP’s Key Levels Remain Critical
XRP continues to trade around an important support zone near the low-$1.40 range, a level many market participants consider crucial for preserving bullish momentum. Holding above this region strengthens the case for continuation, while losing it could delay breakout expectations.
Broader market conditions also support cautious optimism. Bitcoin’s relative stability and improving sentiment across altcoins have created an environment where XRP could regain strength if buyers defend current levels.
For now, JD is not calling the next top. He is waiting for confirmation. But for investors who remember his previous successful $3.37 call, his latest message suggests that another major opportunity may be approaching.
