A prominent crypto analyst is sounding a stark warning for XRP traders, forecasting a potential 10% correction in the near term before a historic rally. The digital asset, currently hovering around $1.3, is believed to have just completed a seven-year corrective phase, setting the stage for what Elliott Wave theory identifies as an impending and powerful third wave. This technical framework converges on a striking long-term target of $27, with the analyst noting that a $20 projection by 2030 aligns closely with their own bullish thesis, while highlighting 2026 as a key strategic entry opportunity before the major move unfolds.

The targets are $18 to $27, derived from Fibonacci extensions on a non-logarithmic scale, anchored by Wave 1’s 5.618x expansion off the cup-and-handle base.

Can XRP Price Hit The $27 Prediction? Key Levels, Setups, and Scenarios

XRP is consolidating after pulling back, now stabilizing. RSI sits at 45, neutral, not oversold, while MACD and Stochastic oscillators are both showing early bullish shifts on the daily chart. That combination suggests accumulation rather than breakdown, though confirmation is still absent.

Key levels to watch: support at $1.80 and a longer-term floor at $0.87 that underpins the full $27 path. Resistance stacks at $2 to $2.70, that last level is EGRAG’s breakout signal, with $3.00 as full confirmation.

Chart Nerd’s Fibonacci framework implies a $1.65 trillion market cap at $27, surpassing Bitcoin’s current market cap. A bit too much to ask for Ripple. A short-term rise toward $2.4 is a more plausible scenario. However, if XRP is to break $2.4, a pullback to $1.55 or lower would likely follow in a Fibonacci retracement zone that acts as a bear trap and a buy zone simultaneously.

Traders who sold between $5 and $8 during the last cycle, may have badly misjudged the cycle’s ceiling.

Bitcoin Hyper Eyes Early Mover Upside as XRP Tests Key Levels

XRP at $27 would represent a roughly 14x move from current prices, a compelling return by any measure. But for an asset with an $81 billion market cap, even a 50% move is hard to achieve in a short time frame. Those looking for asymmetric upside are increasingly scanning earlier-stage infrastructure plays where the multiple potential is structurally larger.
