It’s been revealed that the veteran commodity trader Peter Brandt believes that XRP could surge higher against Bitcoin according to the latest reports.
He said that “The XRP/BTC pair has formed the “extremely rare” compound fulcrum pattern, which is used by point and figure chartists. Brandt says that this could be a “powerful” buy signal.”
As UToday notes, the compound fulcrum formation—which can be spotted only once in a few years—usually indicates that a certain asset is ready for a trend reversal after bottoming out, according to Brandt’s explanation:
“The compound fulcrum is always a bottom pattern — never a top. It occurs when a market forms a complex H&S top pattern after a prolonged and extended decline,” Brandt said.
