XRP finally coils for breakout
After three months of tight consolidation and repeated rejections at the $1.45 to $1.47 resistance zone, XRP is coiling for what analysts believe could be an explosive breakout.
After a brutal sell-off earlier in the year, XRP has spent the last quarter tightly consolidatingHence, some analysts believe that a violent, volatile move is essentially imminent. Prominent cryptocurrency analyst “Dom” (@traderview2) has said that XRP has been “going sideways for nearly 3 months now.”
According to the analyst, a decisive market acceptance above the $1.47 level could trigger a rapid upward surge (provided Bitcoin (BTC) can actually supply the necessary bullish momentum for this to happen).
