XRP is currently navigating a precarious path, shadowed by two distinct bearish patterns on its short-term charts since early June. These patterns, namely a head and shoulders formation and a bear flag, have emerged on the four-hour timeframe, heightening the risk of XRP dipping beneath the significant $1 threshold.
Starting June 5, a head and shoulders pattern was observed within XRP’s pricing structure. In this classic formation, the central peak surpasses the adjacent shoulders, and a break below its supporting neckline implies a downward target. As of the latest analysis, XRP has completed its right shoulder and might plummet to the support near $1.09 initially.
“If XRP decisively breaks below the neckline at $1.09, the technical target for the head and shoulders pattern projects a move down to approximately $0.99.”
With these metrics, the primary bearish target for June is set at $0.99, reflecting a potential 10% decline from its current standing. However, a rally reclaiming the right shoulder peak of $1.12 and breaching the 20-period moving average on the four-hour chart may invalidate this bearish outlook.
A successful bullish turn could see XRP targeting the 50-period exponential moving average around the $1.15 territory, rendering a plausible 4.5% gain beyond present prices.
The four-hour chart reveals a bear flag pattern; XRP has moved within an ascending channel after a steep fall, indicating a potential continuation of the downward trend. As the week progressed, XRP challenged the lower trendline at around $1.10, with a robust four-hour close below this mark possibly confirming further declines.
“A confirmed close below $1.10 in the bear flag pattern could open the door to further losses, potentially targeting the $0.94 level for XRP.”
This scenario projects a technical target of $0.94, approximately 15% below current price levels. The RSI hovering at 43 signifies limited buying interest, emphasizing the bearish sentiment.
If XRP manages to break above $1.12 convincingly, this could dent the bearish framework. A firm breach over the significant resistance of $1.15 might delay additional sell-offs, pushing the price to the upper trajectory between $1.18 and $1.20.
Key insights from the on-chain analysis introduce implications for traders:
On-chain metrics through MVRV price bands underscore ongoing downside risks for XRP. The MVRV gauge, contrasting the current price with coins’ average on-chain movement costs, warns that the lower green band, marking prior lows in 2018, 2020, and 2022, aligns near $0.96, possibly serving as the next significant target should pressure intensify.
