Analysts Highlight Bullish Technical Signals for XRP Breakout

Trader Javon Marks posted a chart showing XRP building strength for another potential surge. According to him, the token has the potential to rise by over 226% and reach $9.90. If it surpasses that zone, XRP price may well be on its path to $20 and beyond.

Marks explained that the big price moves usually arise after massive accumulations and price patterns similar to those that has happened the past. His chart compared the current breakout with the previous long-term swings whereby XRP would rise after remaining flat.


Another respected chartist, Ali Martinez, also claimed that XRP is preparing for a strong rally. As he remarked, the token has displayed a purchase sign on the TD Sequential chart. This tool assists in identifying when a trend has stopped and it’s about to reverse.

Martinez added that this indicator on the 4-hour chart suggests improving price movement and the probability that a new upward trend is about to start. Based on his analysis, technical indicators now favor the buyers after the recent consolidation.


Strong technical trends and institutional interest in digital assets would further support the bullish position, especially as the CME Group plans to launch XRP and Solana futures options. The two projections come after XRP price has remained stable above $3. Although it dropped slightly, traders believe the token is about to make a stronger price move.

So far, the market’s response indicates cautiousness as XRP price approached $3. Based on the analysis, the most important test will be whether XRP will continue to increase beyond the next level of resistance or not.

ETF Launch and Tokenized Funds Proves Institutional Confidence in XRP

In addition to the technical analysis, events surrounding XRP this week have strengthened the bullish stance. The first was the launch of the first U.S. spot XRP ETF. Also, there were new tokenized fund plans on the XRP Ledger. Investors will be able to trade or hold these funds like tokens, gaining exposure to regulated products that offers faster settlement and greater liquidity.

Both events mark growing institutional engagement with this token. Hence, the token is no longer a payment token solely. It has also become an asset supporting regulated investment products and on-chain finance integrations.
