XRP Army Alert: Ripple’s Wedge Pattern Signals Explosive Price Movement Imminent
Technical analysis reveals Ripple's consolidation phase is reaching its breaking point.
The Wedge Tightens
XRP's trading pattern shows textbook wedge formation—price action compresses between converging trendlines. This classic setup typically precedes significant directional moves.
Volume Tells the Story
Declining volume during consolidation suggests weakening momentum from both bulls and bears. The market's holding its breath, waiting for that decisive breakout.
History Repeats Itself
Previous wedge patterns in XRP's chart have triggered moves exceeding 50%—either up or down. The current setup mirrors those historical precedents almost perfectly.
Traders watch key resistance and support levels like hawks. Break above resistance could trigger FOMO buying, while breakdown might see panic selling. Either way, volatility's coming—and Wall Street's probably already positioned for it while retail investors scramble to catch up.
Pattern Suggests Two Possible Scenarios
Crypto analyst EGRAG crypto pointed to a descending broadening wedge on the chart. Based on this structure, there is a 57% chance of a break to the upside and a 43% chance of a move lower.
If the lower outcome plays out, EGRAG mentioned a possible retest of the $0.50 area, based on measured MOVE projections. On the other side, a successful breakout to the upside could take the price toward the $9 region.
They also referenced earlier trades where some sold around $2.70 to $2.80, and XRP is now sitting NEAR $2.50 to $2.60. EGRAG noted,
“If you want to sell now, go ahead, no hard feelings… Just don’t come back to me later saying you wish you had sold.”
Long-Term Structure Still Holds
Analyst ChartingGuy shared a monthly chart showing that XRP is still trading above the $1.61 support. This level lines up with the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement and a former resistance zone from 2021. While Ripple’s token recently failed to hold above $3.31, the 0.886 Fibonacci level, it continues to print higher lows.
Notably, the same chart shows potential future levels near $3.31, $8, $13, and $27, based on standard Fibonacci extensions. These levels may act as price targets if XRP holds its current structure. Referring to the larger time frame view, ChartingGuy said,

Whale Activity Linked to October Drop
As reported by CryptoPotato, large wallets began moving XRP to Binance in the first half of October. This followed a quiet period in September. The timing of these transfers matched a 20% drop in price, adding pressure during the decline.
Meanwhile, open interest across XRP futures fell sharply from $9 billion to around $4.17 billion. This move came as broader crypto markets saw forced selling and deleveraging across several major tokens.
Partnership Announcement Supports Sentiment
Ripple confirmed a new partnership with Immunefi, launching a security testing program for the XRP Ledger. The test includes a $200,000 bug bounty, set to run from October 27 to November 24.
This announcement came as XRP slid through key levels, offering a short-term lift in sentiment. Traders are now watching price levels closely as the wedge pattern nears a potential breakout point.
