Veteran trader Peter Brandt is sounding the alarm on XRP, predicting a potential 50% price drop.
XRP’s Troubling Chart Pattern
Brandt, who boasts a massive following on X (formerly Twitter), points to a “head-and-shoulders” pattern on XRP’s daily chart. This bearish pattern suggests XRP has lost the momentum to continue its upward trend. He says this pattern indicates a potential drop to $1.07 unless XRP breaks above $3.00. Currently, XRP is trading around $2.12.
Bitcoin and the S&P 500 Also Under Scrutiny
Brandt isn’t just focused on XRP. He’s also expressing concern about Bitcoin (BTC) and the S&P 500. He believes BTC, after breaking a bearish pattern, could fall below $70,000 (it’s currently around $82,791). He also sees the S&P 500 as entering a significant downtrend, potentially dropping to around 5,170 (currently hovering near 5,580).
