People love to bash the XRP chart. XRP haters love to say it's "the worst performing crypto asset" — which, in 2017 it was actually the best performing crypto asset, so that's false. Among other usually false things, they point to the fact that XRP remains in a bear market, while BTC and many others have enjoyed powerful gains. Well, I'm here to show you that, until a major technical change happens, they're absolutely wrong about XRP's technical picture. In my opinion, XRP currently has one of the most bullish technical charts that I've ever seen. As I've shown in previous analyses, XRP is clearly in a massive, gargantuan, absolutely titanic uptrend channel (in blue,) and good 'ol Poopy is about to break it down for you. =D
When I look at channels in markets, I assess the touches on the upper and lower trendlines of the channel, like most analysts do. However, I pay special attention to the action around where the midline of the channel is. That helps me validate channels, especially if they are somewhat difficult to discern, such as the channel on this XRP chart. When we apply that logic, and look at the midline of this channel (pink dashes,) it becomes abundantly clear that XRP has had a plethora of interactions with it (pink circles.) The fact that XRP has had so many interactions with the midline of this channel, proves that it is undoubtedly in an uptrend channel. Moreover, this channel has been in the making during the entire existence of XRP. The reactions to the top and bottom of the channel are also very clear, further adding to the validity of the formation.
So, without a doubt, XRP is in one of the largest uptrend channels known to man. Now, whether or not this channel will continue to hold, is anyone's guess. However, given the incredibly strong fundamentals of XRP, I think the token is most likely at a major discount right now, and I believe that the most likely outcome is that XRP will hold the bottom of this channel and begin to move higher. Admittedly, that is an assumption, and as technical analysts, we have to watch for price to continue to show us that it's holding the bottom of the channel. Because, just as XRP could hold here and blast off, it could also break the channel and collapse.
Looking at the current price action, we can see that XRP is currently holding around the exact bottom of the channel. Additionally, we can see that XRP is holding around a major lateral support zone (in green.) Looking back to 2017, we can see that there was a very similar lateral support zone, which also interacted with what is now the bottom of the channel. Price clearly entered a parabolic explosion shortly after that convergence of support. With that said, we all know that history doesn't always repeat itself — but it does often rhyme. Until I see a confirmed breakdown of this uptrend channel, I believe that the most likely technical direction from here is to the upside. In fact, I will even venture to say that if XRP holds this channel, the XRP bear market has just ended. =D
