The XRP price has been trending downward for several months now, falling from<\/span> a yearly high above $3<\/span><\/a> in 2025 to under $1.4 at the time of writing. With the crypto market facing strong bearish headwinds, XRP\u2019s next move remains uncertain. While some<\/span> hope for a recovery<\/span><\/a>, others project further downside. For her bearish forecast, crypto analyst CasiTrades suggests that XRP\u2019s consolidation phase may not be over. She projects that the cryptocurrency could still crash further to $0.87 before the<\/span> current bear market<\/span><\/a> ends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n CasiTrades has <\/span>presented<\/span><\/a> a fresh technical update on XRP\u2019s price action, outlining a short-term bearish scenario which could see the cryptocurrency decline significantly to $0.87 before any meaningful recovery begins. Posting on X, she notes that XRP has now spent 34 days inside<\/span> Wave 4 of an Elliott Wave structure<\/span><\/a>. During this period, price movement has been unusually slow, and overall volatility across the pair has dropped considerably.<\/span><\/p>\n According to the chart, XRP is currently trading around $1.39 and remains trapped within a corrective structure that has been moving sideways since early February. CasiTrades noted that this pattern was typical of Wave 4 behavior, often accompanied by a prolonged, muted consolidation that slowly exhausts market participants and frustrates both bulls and bears.<\/span><\/p>\n CasiTrades has highlighted two key price levels that will likely determine XRP\u2019s next move. The first is the $0.87 level, which aligns with the 0.854 Fibonacci retracement shown on the chart. If XRP crashes to this level, the analyst expects it to act as a strong support area where the cryptocurrency\u2019s<\/span> ongoing correction<\/span><\/a> could complete, and a recovery could begin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The second level is the resistance around $1.65, which closely corresponds to the 0.618 Fibonacci extension. CasiTrades suggests that if XRP moves higher and breaks above this level, then holds it as support, it would invalidate<\/span> the cryptocurrency\u2019s bearish outlook<\/span><\/a> and signal a potential shift back to bullish momentum.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If XRP follows the bearish scenario, CasiTrades chart suggests that once Wave 4 completes near the $0.87 support zone, the market could transition into<\/span> Wave 5<\/span><\/a>, a projected strong recovery phase. The green line on the chart illustrates this expected rebound, pointing significantly higher after XRP\u2019s corrective phase ends.<\/span><\/p>\n Following the projected trajectory of the green line,<\/span> XRP is expected<\/span><\/a> to rebound sharply from $0.87 and move toward the next intermediate zone near the 0.786 Fibonacci Retracement around $1.085. From there, the price is projected to revisit its previous resistance area near $1.65, before potentially climbing to a second resistance level around $1.78. If the cryptocurrency breaks above this level with<\/span> bullish momentum<\/span><\/a>, the chart suggests a further surge that could propel XRP beyond $1.9.<\/span><\/p>\n Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The XRP price has been trending downward for several months now, falling from a yearly high above $3 in 2025 to under $1.4 at the time of writing.
