The XRP price has entered what is regarded as the Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) ranging zone, according to crypto analyst Egrag. While the digital asset’s price oscillates within a critical zone, the analyst maintains a bullish stance on its future trajectory.
XRP Price Enters DCA Zone
Egrag stated via a on X, “XRP Color Code (Update): My Stance Forged in the Fires of Conviction: Let me say it 1 million times that I’m still bullish AF, so ease up on the DMs assuming I’ve switched my stance. Remember, markets move in waves, and I’m here to present the short-term moves because, let’s face it, 80% want to reach Valhalla without dying.”
The analyst’s latest technical analysis reveals that the previous support level at $0.66 proved to be weaker than anticipated, leading to a shift in the XRP price’s movement into a ranging zone. “$0.66 wasn’t a solid support, as I’ve mentioned before. XRP is in the ‘ranging’ zone, so the DCA opportunity is open,” Egrag stated.
The analyst’s chart exhibits a descending triangle pattern breaking downwards, indicating potential bearishness in the short term. However, Egrag highlights the importance of the $0.50 mark as a “robust support.” He asserts that the price “won’t dip below $0.50—it’s a pivotal price point.”
The above 1-hour chart shows that the price has now been rejected several times at the falling (red) trend line. If this momentum is maintained, XRP could drop further and could find first support near $0.57. If this support also breaks, the $0.51 mark could be the most crucial turning point.
For Egrag, the zone between $0.5738 and $0.5119 is the “wicking” zone, meaning that the price could swiftly dip into this zone. However, if the price drops below $0.5119, it would enter the “red flag” zone of Egrag’s chart, potentially invalidating the entire prediction.
The Fibonacci retracement levels on Egrag’s 3-day chart suggest significant resistance and support zones. The 0.236 level at approximately $0.7409 and the 0.382 level at about $0.6432 may act as resistance in a bullish scenario, while the 0.5 level at $0.5738 and the 0.618 level at $0.5119 could provide support if bearish momentum continues.
Notably, Egrag’s commentary doesn’t shy away from conviction, “XRP is transforming the way value moves in this digital age. So, it’s crucial to understand what you hodl. Otherwise, I might have to break out the block button for those not willing to learn on how markets move and what XRP or XRPL is achieving. I’m staying true to my beliefs, and if that’s not your vibe, it’s cool to step away from following me.”
Criticism For ‘Stubborn View’
Despite facing from a user comparing the XRP price performance to that of other cryptocurrencies like Solana (SOL) and Chainlink (LINK), Egrag defended the long-term vision for XRP, highlighting its value proposition. He responded, “Appreciate your input, but I’m not pursuing 300% or 500% gains in projects I lack conviction in. My focus is on generational wealth. Imagine understanding gold will reach $2000, and having the chance to acquire it at $0.5.”
The critic replied, “XRP holders are not diamond hands.. Just very stubborn people hoping to be able to sell it at the price they bought. Be happy if it reaches 1$ again.” Undeterred, Egrag concluded, “Indeed, TESLA investors weren’t stubborn; they envisioned the future. The same principle applies to FANGMAN companies. Bookmark this: XRP, the first digital asset with regulatory clarity, and anticipate Ripple, as a company, surpassing the collective value of the FANGMAN entities.”
At press time, XRP traded at $0.6118.
