XRP Price Prediction: Bearish Pressure Upon Pennant May Lead $XRP Under $0.50

Over the past two months, XRP price has been on a notable downward trajectory. This downtrend has been particularly significant, resulting in Ripple losing nearly 73% of its gains. These gains had been previously accrued during its partial victory against the SEC. Unfortunately, the subsequent period witnessed a reversal of fortunes, with the coin retracing most of these gains. Plunging back to the psychological mark of $0.50, will XRP make a comeback to $1?

Pennant Breakout Might Plunge XRP

  • The pennant pattern formation signals a downtrend continuation for XRP traders.
  • A bullish breakout above the triangle pattern may trigger a significant upswing in XRP price.
  • The intraday trading volume in the XRP is $496 Million, indicating a 32.56% loss.

A bearish pennant pattern is becoming discernible when diving deeper into the XRP price action, particularly in the 4-hour chart. This pattern typically signals a continuation of the prevailing trend, which is bearish in Ripple’s case. The formation of this pattern amidst a downward trend often rings alarm bells for traders as it can indicate further losses on the horizon.

The XRP price demonstrates sideways movement despite the bearish undertones, oscillating between two critical levels. The overhead resistance stands firm at $0.51, while a support trend line demarcates the lower boundary. 

As the price inches closer to this support trend line, the possibility of an upward movement towards the overhead resistance becomes apparent. Breaching the $0.51 resistance could pave the way for a more bullish outlook in the near term.

Can the XRP Price Fall Back to $0.43?

If XRP price manages to rally past the $0.51 resistance, the coin might find itself challenging the overhead resistance trend line, potentially ushering in a bullish phase. On the contrary, a downward breakdown from the current sideways movement could spell trouble. Such a move would likely lead to the XRP price plunging towards the $0.43 mark, reaffirming the bearish sentiment and potentially leading to further losses.
