On the daily time frame chart, a series of short-bodied candles can be observed within the confines of a triangle formation. These neutral candles mirror the hesitancy among traders, showcasing their uncertain market sentiment. As the XRP price hovers around the $0.52 mark and approaches the triangle’s apex, it hints at an imminent breakout opportunity on the horizon.

Amid the increasing bearishness in the market, the XRP price is likely to break the bottom trendline. This breakdown could plunge the prices 18.5% down to hit a $0.422 low.

Will XRP Price Extend Correction to $0.4?

Anyhow, the whole sideways trend is wavering within the range of the August 17th daily candle spread from $0.594 to $0.421. These levels may act as crucial resistance and support offerings to traders and could trigger a short-term sideways trend in XRP price. However, with the anticipated breakdown of the pennant pattern, the crypto sellers may give a breakdown attempt below $0.422 to lead the price to $0.4.
