Analyst Says XRP Dropping to These Levels Could Lead to a Euphoric Surge
Crypto analyst ChartNerd (@ChartNerdTA) recently highlighted a significant monthly structure in XRP’s price action that could indicate a major move ahead. The chart shows a potential pattern similar to the 2017 drop-and-run setup. According to ChartNerd, a price drop in the next few months could lead to a “EUPHORIC climb.”
Historical Context
The chart illustrates XRP’s monthly history, including critical periods such as the 2018 peak. In 2016-2017, XRP consolidated near the blue line shown on the chart before a rapid surge. ChartNerd’s analysis draws parallels to that period. Price compression followed by a breakout defined the previous cycle, establishing a benchmark for current observations.
Since 2022, XRP has shown periods of sustained support along the blue moving average. These zones coincide with the highlighted circles in the chart, which mark critical tests of support.
Historically, testing this support twice preceded large upward moves. The first test in late 2024 sent XRP up by 500%, and the second test could confirm a repeat of this pattern, leading to the euphoric surge ChartNerd expects.
An $XRP drop in the next few months to $0.80/$0.70 before a EUPHORIC climb would be a HUGE blessing in disguise. This specific formation would potentially replicate a 2017 style drop-and-run, look at the Similarities 👇🏼

Current Structure
The chart indicates that XRP may test levels near $0.80 and $0.70 in the near term. The moving average currently sits at $0.7241, falling within the highlighted support range. According to ChartNerd, this scenario mirrors the 2017 drop that preceded a major rally. The blue moving average is below $1.52, suggesting support is established, and a reversal could be forthcoming.
The projected green candles at the end of the chart illustrate the potential upside if the pattern completes successfully. ChartNerd did not outline a specific target, but the chart suggests that XRP could surpass $20. The analyst previously set a $27 target for the digital asset. Investors could take this as a peak for its next upward move.

Future Outlook
If XRP follows the projected pattern, the next few months could see a controlled decline before a strong upward move. Such a structure would resemble the 2017 drop-and-run cycle. Support levels near $0.70-$0.80 may provide a low-risk entry for traders positioning for the next leg higher.
ChartNerd’s analysis suggests that market participants should focus on the support region while monitoring monthly close behavior. The consistency of XRP’s prior reactions to these zones indicates a repeating structural pattern. Traders may interpret this as an opportunity to accumulate in advance of the projected rise.

From SpaceX to Anthropic, the market has new strategies for dealing with tech giants' IPOs
The market's response strategies to major listings are currently centered around "index inclusion expectations": the new regulations allow mega IPOs to be included in the six major indices within 15 days, triggering concentrated buying by passive funds. Investors are positioning themselves in advance and using options to hedge and amplify buying power. However, Anthropic has a free float of only about 6%; shares available for sale by employees on the first day and privately placed shares with no lock-up period may create supply pressure. On the other hand, index arbitrageurs are facing a rare opportunity.
