XRP, the native token associated with RippleNet, has endured a lackluster performance during the ongoing cryptocurrency bull market. While major competitors like Bitcoin and Ethereum have seen significant year-to-date gains, XRP currently sits at around $0.472, representing a 3.12% decline over the past week and a negative 20.35% YTD performance. This slump has led some to question XRP’s long-term viability, labeling the token a “dead coin”
However, a recent technical analysis by TradingShot, a prominent analyst on TradingView, suggests a potential turnaround for XRP. By examining historical price movements and chart patterns, TradingShot argues that XRP is not dead and might be poised for a significant upswing.

Technical Indicators Hint at Breakout Opportunity
TradingShot’s analysis highlights several technical indicators that suggest a potential bullish breakout for XRP. Firstly, the analyst points out that XRP has been trading below its crucial 50-week and 200-week moving averages since April 8th. Historically, such prolonged periods below these moving averages have often resulted in a significant price correction.
Secondly, TradingShot observes that XRP is currently testing the bottom trendline of a triangle pattern that has been forming since January 2018. Interestingly, a similar triangle pattern preceded the substantial price increase witnessed in March 2017. This historical precedent offers a glimmer of hope for XRP bulls.
Furthermore, the analyst emphasizes the significance of XRP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the one-week timeframe. The RSI currently sits at a historically low point of 40.00, which is often interpreted as a sign of oversold territory and a potential buying opportunity in the long term.
Potential Price Surge and Analyst Predictions
If XRP manages to break above its one-week 200-day moving average, TradingShot predicts a potential parabolic rise that could propel the price well above $17. The analyst’s accompanying chart suggests that this level might represent a resistance point for XRP in the current bull market.
This projected upswing would require a staggering increase of over 3,500% from XRP’s current price point. TradingShot acknowledges the ambitious nature of this prediction and cautions that a failure to break above the moving average could necessitate a reevaluation of XRP’s long-term prospects.

It’s worth noting that other analysts share a similar bullish sentiment regarding XRP. For instance, EGRAG, another market commentator, predicted that XRP could reach $17 as early as May 2024. While the specific timeline did not materialize, EGRAG has recently reiterated his price target, albeit without a specific timeframe.
While XRP’s recent performance has been underwhelming, technical indicators and analyst predictions offer a reason for cautious optimism. The token’s potential breakout from a long-term pattern and historically low RSI levels suggest a possible price surge in the future.
