XRP Bulls Take Charge, Breakout From Descending Triangle Pattern Targets $2.52

XRP is showing renewed bullish momentum after reclaiming the $2.26 level, signaling a potential reversal from recent consolidation.

In a positive development for XRP traders, the token has shown renewed bullish momentum after reclaiming the $2.26 level, signaling a potential reversal from recent consolidation. As of writing, XRP is trading at $2.26, marking a breakout above the descending triangle pattern that had capped the asset’s upside in late April.

The cryptocurrency market is displaying a bullish bias following Bitcoin’s recent recovery. BTC surged past the $100k level, injecting a fresh wave of optimism into the overall market and helping altcoins to recover from recent losses. Several major altcoins surged past their crucial resistance level and started upward movements, including XRP.

XRP Breaks Out From Triangle, Next Levels In Focus

Over the past few weeks, XRP had been caught in a tight consolidation phase within a key support zone between $2.00 and $2.10. A descending triangle formation emerged, typically a bearish continuation pattern, but XRP had shown resilience in bouncing off support.

However, on April 27, XRP finally broke out of the triangle pattern to the upside, signaling a shift in technical momentum. The breakout occurred as BTC surged above the $90,000 zone, rendering bearish bets invalid and paving the way for further gains.

The breakout from the triangle pattern, along with a strong green candle breaking the trendline, indicates renewed buying pressure and a potential shift in market structure in favor of the bulls.

A surge through resistance at $2.22 has helped to confirm the breakout, and now the focus will be on the $2.26–$2.30 range. A sustained move above this zone could clear the path toward the next major resistance at $2.52, which previously acted as a supply zone in late March.

On the downside, immediate support is visible at the $2.10 region, which could be tested if selling pressure increases. A failure to hold above this zone could trigger a retest of the $2.00 psychological level, and a breakdown below this zone could drag the token toward $1.82.

Overall, the breakout from the triangle pattern has certainly put the token back in the spotlight, and a break above $2.30 could be crucial for traders to confirm the breakout and potential for further upside. Otherwise, a drop back below $2.10 may bring the token back into bearish territory.
