According to current chart data by TradingView, XRP has successfully confirmed an important technical signal, known as a golden cross, which sets an ambitious target for the price — a 37% increase in the near term.
Is breakout above 200-day moving average next?
At the moment, XRP’s price has stabilized around $1.42. The main driver of optimism has been the crossover of moving averages, with the 23-day moving average confidently moved above the 50-day one. In trading, this is considered a classic confirmation that short-term buying momentum has become stronger than the long-term trend — the very definition of a golden cross.
The current move is aimed at testing the 200-day moving average, which is now located near the $1.92 mark. This remains the primary reference point, but if XRP manages not only to touch this line but to consolidate above it, it will signal a definitive exit from the prolonged sideways trend.
In such a scenario, the $1.92 level, which for a long time served as a “ceiling,” will turn into a reliable “floor” for further movement toward the psychological $2.5 mark and higher.
Optimism on the charts is supported by news from the real sector. By March 2026, the status of XRP as a “digital commodity” was finally confirmed. For now, holding the $1.42 level is critically important for maintaining the bullish scenario. If buyers retain control, a breakout above the 200-day average could become the main event of Crypto Spring 2026.
