According to Martinez, the pattern printed on the chart could trigger a sharp 10% price move for $XRP in the near future.
The analyst spotlighted $XRP preparing for a decisive breakout as its price is seen hovering around the $1.42 and $1.43 mark, with immediate resistance levels seen near $1.44 and $1.45.
Nonetheless, the chart further showed that support is holding around $1.41, with a stronger base forming closer to $1.39.
With the projected pattern, the analyst believes that a move beyond either boundary could put $XRP on the verge of a sharp 10% price swing.
As of the time of writing, $XRP is trading around $1.43 with a brief surge of about 0.37%. This means that the potential 10% surge could propel the asset to trade near $1.60 soon.
$XRP community not surprised
The bullish price prediction for $XRP did not come as a surprise to the $XRP community as many claimed that the asset is obviously set for a big price move which could even see it surge beyond 10%.
Other $XRP traders claimed that such a technical setup is merely a routine signal and it requires confirmation with strong trading volume rather than being reactive.
