According to crypto expert TradingView, the XRP Price Action witnessed an impressive gain of 150% in the last 10 days. This price increase caused an increase to the $1 milestone for the first time in three years. Despite these bullish developments, the analyst has highlighted several reasons and technical indicators that point to an upcoming trend reversal and price correction for XRP.
In the XRP price chartthe analyst identified and confirmed the Gravestone DOJI, a bearish candlestick pattern that appears during market tops and signals the potential for a price correction. The Tombstone DOJI Candle indicates that buyers who had tried to push up the price of XRP were significantly overwhelmed by sellers looking for profit-taking.
Another indicator that the XRP price could be preparing for a significant correction is the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Money Flow Index (MFI) support breakouts. The RSI measures the speed and changes in an asset’s price movement, indicating whether it is overbought or sold. On the other hand, the MFI takes into account both price and volume, emphasizing where the money flows.
A breakout of support in XRP’s RSI signals a potential trend reversal due to an overbought market. A breakout in MFIs, which the analyst believes is a very noteworthy indicator, suggests that funds are abandoning assets, ultimately pointing to easing buying pressure.
More factors pointing to an impending crash
