XRP News: XRP Price Could Rally to $2.80 as Bullish Chart Patterns and Onchain Data Align

XRP is flashing multiple bullish technical and onchain signals that suggest a breakout could be underway, with traders increasingly eyeing a move toward $2.80 before the end of the month.Across higher- and lower-timeframe charts, XRP’s price structure is aligning with improving spot market demand — a combination that has historically preceded sharp upside moves.Key takeawaysMultiple XRP chart patterns converge on a $2.70–$2.80 upside targetSpot taker CVD remains firmly positive, signaling aggressive buyer dominanceTechnical breakouts mirror setups that previously led to outsized ralliesXRP breaks out of falling wedge, eyes $2.70On the two-day chart, XRP broke out of a falling wedge pattern on Jan. 1 — a classic bullish formation marked by converging downward trendlines and waning selling pressure.In technical analysis, falling wedges often resolve to the upside once sellers are exhausted and buyers regain control.For the bullish scenario to remain intact, XRP needs to hold above the $2.00 support level. A sustained move above $2.40 would strengthen momentum and open the path toward the wedge’s measured target near $2.70.Crypto trader CryptoWIZRD noted that XRP spent nearly a month consolidating inside the wedge before breaking higher, adding that a similar structure in Q4 2025 preceded a 486% rally.Bull flag on lower timeframe targets $2.80Zooming into the eight-hour chart, XRP is forming a bull flag — another continuation pattern that typically signals trend resumption.Price is currently testing resistance near $2.15, defined by the flag’s upper boundary. An eight-hour close above this level would likely confirm the breakout, setting up a move first toward $2.41, then toward the flag’s full measured target at $2.80.That move would represent a roughly 32% gain from current levels.Momentum indicators support the setup: the relative strength index (RSI) has climbed to 51 from 42, reflecting strengthening bullish pressure without yet entering overbought territory.Spot taker CVD confirms buyer controlOnchain data adds further weight to the bullish case. The 90-day spot taker Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) — which tracks whether market buyers or sellers are more aggressive — shows persistent buyer dominance since November 2025.According to CryptoQuant, market buy orders have consistently outweighed sell orders, indicating traders are increasingly willing to purchase XRP at market prices rather than waiting for pullbacks.Historically, similar surges in XRP’s spot taker CVD have preceded strong upside moves. The last comparable signal appeared in July 2025, shortly before XRP rallied more than 65% within weeks.So far in 2026, XRP is already up around 16%, reinforcing the view that demand-side pressure is rebuilding, according to Cointelegraph.Outlook: $2.80 back in focusWith a falling wedge breakout on higher timeframes, a bull flag forming on lower timeframes, and spot market demand favoring buyers, XRP’s technical structure is aligning around a $2.70–$2.80 price objective.While broader market conditions and Bitcoin’s direction remain important variables, the convergence of these three signals suggests XRP bulls are positioning for a meaningful continuation move rather than a short-lived bounce.
