Ripple Ready to Rally? Ali Martinez Identifies Two Catalysts for XRP Price Surge
Ripple's XRP has been trending downward over the past week and month, trading at around $1.03 according to CoinGecko.
However, analyst Ali Martinez believes that two factors could signal a potential upcoming rally for XRP. The first is the Tom DeMark Sequential indicator, which has flashed a buy signal on XRP's monthly chart, hinting at a possible shift from bearish to bullish momentum.
The indicator has previously marked major reversals in XRP's price, including a 1,074% jump in April 2020 and a 973% increase in August 2022. In contrast, the asset dropped by 57% after flashing a sell signal in April 2025.
The second factor is the whales' buying spree, with large investors scooping up over 380 million XRP worth nearly $400 million in the past seven days. Their total holdings have risen to approximately 8.2 billion tokens, representing 13.1% of the asset's circulating supply.
