XRP, the cryptocurrency behind Ripple, has been making a lot of noise lately, with analysts predicting the price could rise to $11. However, before this happens, XRP must face a significant challenge of short-term price correction. Despite the positive long-term outlook, the asset is expected to face a decline before any meaningful upside occurs.
Resistance at $2.73 is currently a key level that XRP must overcome for further price movement. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez sees this resistance as important to sustaining XRP’s bullish trend.

important breakthrough
A breakout of $2.73 and a subsequent uptrend could see the digital asset reach $11. However, if you don’t, the coin could run into problems and drop to a potential low of $2.05.
Given that the price range is so volatile, investors are closely monitoring XRP’s movements to see if it will rise or correct.

technical perspective
From a technical analysis perspective, other prominent analysts who support the Elliott Wave theory say that XRP is undergoing a correction. After a shocking 5-wave rally, they believe that XRP is gearing up for an ABC correction pattern.
This type of correction usually occurs after a long bull market and serves as a breather before the next big move. Other analysts expect the correction to end around mid-January 2024, giving traders a good opportunity to buy ahead of a new rally.
This correction may cause prices to fall temporarily, but could lead to even more significant gains in the coming months.
bullish sentiment
Considering all the risks associated with a short-term price correction, overall sentiment remains very bullish on XRP. One of the main reasons for this is the recent resolution regarding Ripple’s long-running lawsuit with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The favorable ruling in this case removed much of the uncertainty from XRP’s public regulatory standing, making it one of the most attractive investments for many. Positive: Expectations for more accommodative crypto-friendly policies from the government, rather than for the broader market, are creating upward momentum.
