XRP News Today: XRP's Price Pattern Suggests 455% Gain Potential

XRP’s price movements are currently aligning with a familiar pattern observed in its previous long-term market cycles. EGRAG CRYPTO, a well-known crypto analyst, recently shared a chart outlining how XRP’s performance over the last couple of years reflects a repeating structure tied to a specific exponential moving average (EMA).

Historical trends are crucial for analyzing future movements. This EMA has served as both a support and launch point in earlier phases of XRP’s market history. The analyst maps out XRP’s historical behavior across three distinct price phases (Cycles 1, 2, and 3, with Cycle 3 currently in progress) and emphasizes how it tends to break above this EMA, return to retest it, and then enter a vertical rally phase.

In each of the previous two cycles, XRP initially consolidated beneath the EMA, then pushed through it before pulling back to confirm the breakout. Cycle 1, which began in 2017, marked a massive upward move after its retest, culminating in XRP’s all-time high of $3.84 in January 2018. Cycle 2 in 2021 followed a similar but more moderate path, reaching a peak of $1.96 in April, a level the digital asset has successfully turned into support. In both cases, the retest acted as a launchpad for a final surge toward the cycle’s peak.

The third cycle, now unfolding, appears to be mirroring this sequence. XRP surged in late 2024/early 2025, briefly pulling back toward the EMA by April, in what EGRAG CRYPTO identifies as the expected retest phase. From this point forward, if the structure continues to repeat, a strong upward move would complete the cycle.

The chart uses a monthly timeframe to show long-term price development. He marks September 2025 as a possible inflection point. EGRAG CRYPTO’s analysis applies percentage gains from previous cycles to the lower bound of the retest level at $1.77. Cycle 1 saw a 2,000% increase after the EMA retest, while Cycle 2 registered a 455% gain. Applying those figures to today’s structure yields two possible price targets. The analyst sets a conservative target at $9.5 and a more aggressive target at $37.5, joining other analysts who have set targets above $30.

XRP is currently trading at $2.18, and while the analysis doesn’t guarantee either outcome, it does offer a structured framework for evaluating possible price extensions. EGRAG advises users to remain disciplined, finalize exit strategies, and approach the market with a clear plan.
