Analyst Maps Out XRP’s Exact Path For 2026, Here’s The Roadmap

XRP has had a rough start to 2026, with the first two months of the year closing in the red. Right now, XRP enthusiasts are hungry for a bullish direction. Interestingly, one analyst thinks he has the full picture. Not just a target, but a turn-by-turn roadmap of exactly how the next months will play out for XRP. CryptoBull, a closely followed crypto analyst on X, has laid out a detailed five-wave projection for XRP that begins right where the market currently stands, and the destination is unlike anything most traders are prepared for.XRP’s 2026 Broadening Pattern RoadmapThe basis of CryptoBull’s roadmap is a five-wave broadening pattern drawn on XRP’s weekly chart. The structure on the chart is labeled from A to E and is sitting inside two diverging trendlines, forming a wide megaphone-like setup that widens as the pattern develops.Price action on that roadmap indicates that XRP has already completed Waves A and B and is now wrapping up Wave C around the lower boundary of the formation. The chart shows this decline unfolding from the July 2025 $3.65 high marked as Wave B, followed by a long slide into early 2026. That lower trendline is now the most important support in the entire setup because it is the area where the next major pivot is expected to happen.XRP is close to ending Wave C and preparing to reverse into Wave D, which is not going to be just a small relief bounce. It is a strong advance to the upper boundary of the broadening pattern, with the Wave D target placed around $5.$5, Then A Gut-Punch, Then $27According to CryptoBull, Wave C could still dip to around $1.10 to form a double bottom before XRP turns higher to Wave D. Wave D in this framework targets $5, which would see XRP trading in new price territories. However, here is where the pattern gets ruthless. Based on the projection, Wave E follows the D wave, dragging the price back down to $0.78 before the final thrust begins. That final breakout is where the most ambitious part of the prediction comes in. Once Waves A through E are complete, the analyst projected that the XRP price would surge to $27 in the move that follows.Notably, this analysis is based on a purely technical standpoint, not looking at XRP fundamentals or examining its related growth in traditional finance. The chart is plotted on a weekly timeframe on Bitstamp, which means each candle represents one week of price action, and the projected path stretches well into late 2026 and the coming years. Therefore, this is not a trade for the impatient. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $1.37, down by 1.9% in the past 24 hours.Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei NewsBTC Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei NewsBTC
