Q2 Quarterly Candle Closes At Record High
XRP has just posted its highest-ever quarterly candle close, breaking decisively above the multi-year resistance zone around $2.25, a level previously unbreached on quarter-end closes. As illustrated in the XRP/U.S. Dollar 3-month candlestick chart below, the latest three-month candle exceeds all historical quarterly closes and marks a clean breakout from years of consolidation. The chart was first shared on the social media platform X by crypto analyst Steph Is Crypto.
This chart offers an interesting insight into XRP’s long-term momentum, as the latest three-month candlestick marks the third consecutive quarterly close that registers a higher high. The importance of these higher highs cannot be overstated for bullish momentum, as quarterly candles are often seen as stronger trend indicators compared to daily or weekly bars.
Furthermore, the sequence of candles shows that the xrp price is steadily building above a long-standing resistance region that has capped XRP since early 2018. This level was previously the 3-month candlestick close during XRP’s all-time high run in 2018, and it has now been flipped into strong support.
Why This Matters For XRP Price Action Going Forward
XRP closed the second quarter of 2025 at $2.38 against the U.S. Dollar, marking a 14% increase from the first quarter close of $2.08. This Q1 close itself was already a notable shift upward from the $2.07 close observed at the end of Q4 2024. Although all three quarters featured candlestick wicks that extended beyond these closing values, it’s the closing prices that offer the clearest picture of sustained momentum. Their steady increase shows that XRP’s price action is gradually moving up in range.
From a technical perspective, the new higher quarterly close solidifies the breakout structure from $2.25 on the macro timeframe. Quarterly closes as more reliable signals than shorter-term moves, since they are less susceptible to volatility and manipulation. A close of this magnitude means XRP has entered a new price discovery phase above $2.25, and there’s now a strong case for the cryptocurrency to push into new all-time highs.
Moving forward, this $2.25 price level is now expected to act as support for any future pullbacks in the larger timeframe. As such, the path to higher levels of $3, $3.5, $4, $5, and beyond may unfold with fewer obstacles than in previous cycles.
At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.26.
