Veteran trader claims XRP could fall to $0.20 as key pattern plays out

Oliver Knight
·3-min read

Ripple’s XRP token could be on the brink of a major 30% correction if the recent head and shoulders pattern plays out, according to renowned veteran trader Peter Brandt.

Brandt explained his view on Twitter by stating: “It will be interesting to see if this H&S top plays out. If so, the target would be $0.2071.”

XRP is now 23% lower than Saturday’s high of $0.35 with it currently trading at around the $0.27 level of support.

A head and shoulders pattern in terms of technical analysis is typically a reversal signal which, should it come to fruition, means it will likely cause a new bearish trend.

However, one positive for XRP is that it bounced from the daily 200 exponential moving average (EMA), which was a key point of support and resistance throughout both 2018 and 2019.

If Thursday’s daily candle can close above the 200 EMA it would signal that XRP may be ready to make a move back to the upside, thus invalidating Brandt’s theory of a possible head and shoulders.

Closing a daily candle below the 200 EMA would be catastrophic for XRP considering the daunting possibility of a reversal.

If a break down in price happens this evening, initial price targets would be $0.243 and $0.230 as well as Brandt’s target of $0.2071.
