A cryptocurrency analyst has highlighted how XRP has recently dropped under a Symmetrical Triangle, potentially setting a target of $1.14. XRP Has Broken Below A Symmetrical Triangle In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has talked about a Symmetrical Triangle that the daily price of XRP was potentially trading inside before the recent drawdown. The “Symmetrical Triangle” here refers to a pattern from technical analysis (TA) that forms whenever an asset trades between two converging trendlines.

Thus, as the asset trades inside this channel, its range shrinks to a midpoint. Like with other consolidation patterns in TA, the upper level of a Symmetrical Triangle is also assumed to be a source of resistance, while the lower line that of support. A break out of either of these trendlines can signal a continuation of trend in that direction. Now, here is the chart shared by Martinez that shows the Symmetrical Triangle that was earlier forming in the 1-day price of XRP: Looks like the price of the coin has slipped under the support level of the channel | Source: @alicharts on X As displayed in the above graph, XRP spent a couple of months inside the Symmetrical Triangle, but as the range became tight in May, a breakout finally took place. The escape, however, came in the down direction, with the asset slipping below the support level. As mentioned before, ventures out of a Symmetrical Triangle can signal the continuation of trend in that direction. This means that the breakdown of support can be a bearish signal. From the chart, it’s apparent that the pattern appears to have held for XRP so far, with bearish action continuing since the lower level gave out. Based on the trend, the analyst has put a target of $1.14 for the cryptocurrency. It now remains to be seen whether the coin will march toward this level or if its trajectory will reverse. This Symmetrical Triangle shared by Martinez was a short-term pattern. In another recent X post , the analyst highlighted a long-term channel that the monthly price of XRP has possibly been stuck inside for years now.

As the below chart shows, the asset retested the resistance level of this channel in 2025, but it ended up finding rejection. The pattern followed by the coin over the years | Source: @alicharts on X The cryptocurrency has been going down since this reversal. “If $XRP continues respecting this parallel channel, the mid-range near $0.73 could become an attractive accumulation zone,” noted Martinez.
