A 35% XRP Price Swing? The Massive Symmetrical Triangle Forming on Ripple’s Chart

XRP has been grinding sideways for months, but that could be about to change.

According to two prominent market watchers, there is a multi-month symmetrical triangle on XRP’s daily chart that, once the price finally exits it, could trigger a 35% move.

XRP Compresses Into a Triangle as Traders Watch for Breakout

In a post published on X earlier today, analyst Ali Martinez, known on the platform as Ali Charts, said this about the Ripple token:

“$XRP consolidates in a symmetrical triangle, pointing to a potential 35% move.”

That view was echoed by fellow on-chain technician ChartNerd, who went into more detail, describing the compression as continuing “towards its apex” and flagging the 20- and 50-day exponential moving averages as levels that “need to be held or a drop to support opens up.”

At the time of writing, XRP was sitting near $1.40, up nearly 6% on the week but still down more than 3% on the month and off its July 2025 all-time high by about 61%.

Another analyst, Arthur, posted what looks like a supporting signal: while the price has been making lower lows, the RSI has been printing higher lows. He pointed out that that kind of divergence can mean selling pressure is running out of steam before a bigger move. In addition, he said that XRP had just broken above a horizontal resistance level around $1.40, calling the setup “increasingly interesting.”

On the volume side, data published by Arab Chain shows XRP’s Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) sitting close to -7.18 million, meaning sell orders have been outpacing buys even with prices stabilizing. Meanwhile, the 30-day correlation between the price and CVD has improved to roughly 0.61, suggesting the two are gradually coming back into alignment, but this is still a market that has not made up its mind about which direction to take.

A separate note from CryptoQuant contributor PelinayPA over the weekend made the same point from a different angle: large wallet transfers above 100,000 XRP have been sporadic, pointing to a lack of stable directional pressure from the bigger players.
