XRP Eyes Explosive Move as Analyst Spots Pattern from Past Rallies

Ripple's XRP has been gaining attention from traders as it shows signs of preparing for its next major move. Crypto analyst, Crypto Crew University, points out that XRP's monthly Relative Strength Index (RSI) is flashing a pattern reminiscent of the setups that preceded significant rallies in 2017 and 2021.

The RSI is a widely used momentum indicator that measures an asset's recent price moves by comparing its average gains with its average losses. In this case, XRP's RSI hit its highest level since 2017 in 2025, preceding the token's run to a $3.66 peak in July.

The analyst is now watching for XRP's RSI to reclaim its moving average, which he views as the potential trigger for another explosive price move. He cites historical examples where XRP surged after its RSI moved back above its moving average, including a 2020 instance where it climbed from $0.18 to nearly $2.

The current market situation is that XRP is trading at $1.57, up 5.1% over the past 24 hours and 12.4% over the past week. While some traders are buying in anticipation of further upside, it's essential to remember that historical RSI setups do not guarantee future performance.
