XRP is back above $1.42, with traders focusing on a chart pattern that led to a 66% rally in 2025 that saw the rise of XRP up 66% in less than two weeks. The current price action shows XRP breaking out of a bull flag, where price jumps sharply then moves sideways or slightly lower for a while before potentially breaking higher again. Some traders now view holding above $2.40 as critical, with this potentially acting as both psychological support and the upper boundary of the recent flag structure. XRP also showed signs of a slowdown in momentum, but this is usually seen as a pause in momentum rather than a full reversal. The broader setup resembles the 2025 breakout structure where XRP compressed for weeks before accelerating sharply higher.
