Despite this, the analyst anticipated that the downturn may be short-lived, predicting a rebound shortly after.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>MetaShackle, a crypto analyst on TradingView, has shared a chart presenting an XRP&#8217;s next price action.<\/p>\n<h2>XRP Price False Breakout Ahead Of Flash Crash<\/h2>\n<p>According to MetaShackle\u2019s false breakout in the coming weeks, followed by a sudden flash crash that could liquidate overleveraged traders. While this deep correction could shake out weak hands, the analyst also outlines a path for a massive rally later in the Second Quarter (Q2) of 2025, potentially pushing XRP to a new all-time high.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The XRP price chart follows an advanced 6-wave pattern, with a potential 7th-wave breakout. XRP is currently in Wave 4 of a larger cycle. While Waves 1 to 3 represented a strong upward move, Wave 4 triggered a major correction for the XRP price. If Wave 4 is completed, the cryptocurrency\u2019s price could push higher into Wave 5, reaching $2.80 &#8211; $3.00, where an FVG awaits. This move would create a false breakout, taking out liquidity above recent highs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-717354\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/XRP-chart-from-MetaShackle.jpg?w=512&#038;resize=512%2C306\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"512\" height=\"306\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After the projected false breakout, XRP is expected to experience a flash crash in Wave 6 by April 2025. This flash crash will likely hold above the lower white trendline after breaking the upper trendline and targeting the green target area between $1.6 and $1.4 $highlighted by the chart.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The flash crash in April is a theoretical move in which the XRP price retraces sharply before a real breakout. This breakout is expected to start in Wave 7, potentially leading to a price discovery for XRP and reaching a likely target of $3.00 before skyrocketing to new highs above $3.6.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the analyst predicts that Wave 7 will begin in May 2025. The breakout is anticipated to take out previous all-time highs for the altcoin, surpassing its $3.84 price record in 2018.<\/p>\n<h2>Update On Price Analysis<\/h2>\n<p>The XRP price is now trading at $2.44 after increasing by 4.56% in the past week. Despite a sharp price crash from its $3.00 high earlier this year, the cryptocurrency remains resilient, and analysts are closely watching its next move.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Notably, analysts continue to take a bullish stance on the XRP price outlook, predicting a potential breakout in the short term.
