After recovering from last week\u2019s lows, XRP has been moving sideways, hovering between $1.40 and $1.45 during the past four days. As the price attempts to hold its local range lows, a market observer has affirmed that the cryptocurrency could be preparing for a potential recovery if its critical level holds.<\/p>\n

XRP At Critical Inflection Point<\/h2>\n

On Tuesday, crypto analyst ChartNerd highlighted<\/a> XRP\u2019s performance over the past six months, suggesting that the altcoin could be \u2018Positioned for a Major Bullish Structure Shift.\u201d<\/p>\n

He explained that the cryptocurrency has seen \u201c6 months of downside with virtually no relief,\u201d while showing key signals, such as the MACD and RSI reaching historical oversold levels.<\/p>\n

Moreover, the analyst highlighted the simultaneous retests of the 50-Month Exponential Moving Average (EMA), a prior eight-year resistance line, and the Fibonacci demand zone. \u00a0\u201cThis marks the first 50EMA backtest since November 2024, and doing so, we have a wick marked on the 0.618\/0.5 FIB demand zone. A popular reversal pocket,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

In a video analysis, ChartNerd also emphasized that XRP is currently at a \u201ccritical inflection point,\u201d pointing to its 200-week EMA, a level that had not been tested since 2024 until now, and where the price is currently sitting.<\/p>\n

The analyst detailed<\/a> that \u201cthis is one of the most important times for XRP because if it holds the line above this moving average, this could set the pace for new all-time highs and continuation of the trend to higher targets.\u201d<\/p>\n

For his bullish case, he pointed out XRP\u2019s 2023-2024 performance, when it consolidated above the indicator and held it as support for over a year, leading to the breakout in November 2024.<\/p>\n

To him, the important part is to \u201chold the 200W EMA, defend it, and create a higher low base. This is where XRP could push to new all-time highs if it respects this long-term structure moving average.\u201d<\/p>\n

Analyst Warns Of New 50% Correction<\/h2>\n

The analyst also shared a bearish<\/a> outlook for XRP, noting that losing the 200W EMA in the weekly timeframe and, more importantly, confirming it as resistance could signal a major drop ahead.<\/p>\n

Per ChartNerd\u2019s analysis, if the altcoin starts closing below the 200W EMA, located around the $1.41 area, it risks descending toward the $0.70 mark. This is where the previous local highs that have not been retested since the late 2024 breakout are.<\/p>\n

He explained that in 2022, after reaching a local high<\/a> of around $1.97, XRP \u201ccame back down for a retest on its 200-week EMA. It then placed a lower high, lost the 200-week, and corrected even further to its bear market lows.\u201d<\/p>\n

In past cycles, when XRP failed to hold this critical inflection level, it entered a deep corrective period, crashing by around 50% toward the bear market bottom.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo technically speaking, if XRP lost right now, for example, the 200-week EMA and we crashed another sort of 49% roughly, you\u2019re bringing XRP back down to 70, which is again those highs that I spoke about in the past that we haven\u2019t actually back tested for support since breaking out,\u201d he warned.<\/p>\n

As of this writing, XRP trades at $1.39, a 3% decline on the daily timeframe.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
