XRP is holding strong above the key $3 level, keeping its bullish breakout intact. With Wave 4 consolidation underway, a push into Wave 5 could propel the price toward $6 and beyond.
Wave Structure Confirmed: XRP Completes Wave 3, Wave 4 Consolidation Underway
In an X post, Dark Defender recalled an earlier post shared on July 6, where he outlined a weekly wave structure for XRP with an initial target of $3.61. Building on that analysis, he has now presented the daily chart of the same wave structure, offering a closer look at XRP’s ongoing price action within the broader Elliott Wave framework.
According to Dark Defender, XRP has already completed Wave 1, Wave 2, and Wave 3 of the current cycle. The price is now in Wave 4, which appears to be a period of consolidation. This consolidation phase is also reflected in the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which signals that the market is taking a breather before the next potential leg higher.

Looking ahead, Dark Defender projects the Wave 5 target to be approximately $5.8563, noting that this is not financial advice (NFA). He maintains his initial target of $3.61 while adding $5.85 as a potential high for this next impulsive move. These targets are based on the continuation of the current wave structure, assuming support levels hold.
Key support for XRP is identified around $3.07. As long as XRP maintains this support and progresses through Wave 4, the bullish wave setup remains valid, with eyes firmly on a breakout toward the $5.85 mark.
The Altcoin Eyes First Ever Monthly Close Above $3
Sonia S., in her latest post on X, pointed out that XRP is poised to achieve a historic milestone by closing the month above $3 for the first time ever. This potential monthly close marks a major bullish development and could signal the start of a new phase in XRP’s long-term price movement.
She identified a crucial breakout zone between $1.97 and $3.01, which XRP has successfully cleared. With this breakout confirmed, Sonia highlighted the next key psychological targets at $4.50 and $6.00+ levels that could attract significant attention from both traders and investors.
As long as XRP maintains its position above $3 on the monthly chart, Sonia noted that price discovery becomes possible, given the lack of historical resistance beyond this level. However, Sonia also warned that if XRP fails to hold above $3 and closes back below this level, the breakout would be invalidated. Such a move could indicate a false breakout and potentially lead to a pullback, making the $3 level a crucial line for the bulls.
