Analyst to XRP Investors: The Moment of Truth Has Arrived. Here's why

XRP has entered a pivotal area on the long-term chart after a sharp decline in June. Crypto analyst JD (@jaydee_757) believes the asset has reached a major technical test that could determine its next move.
In a recent post, JD wrote: “The moment of truth has arrived. One trendline. One decision point.” His chart highlights XRP trading directly above a falling support trendline that has been developing since 2018 and previously acted as resistance.
The analyst said, “If this level holds, bulls stay in control.” However, a breakdown will push XRP into the Pink Box, a much lower support level he has tracked for over a year.
XRP’s Recent Struggles
The setup arrives after a difficult period for XRP. The cryptocurrency has fallen notably since the start of June, with market data showing a steady drop from the $1.30 area toward support levels near $1.1.
These support levels held during the flash crash in February, but XRP hit $1.07 on June 6, its lowest price of 2026. If the asset fails to rebound, it could push deeper toward the pink box on JD’s chart.
The Focus on the Long-Term Trendline
JD’s chart uses monthly candles dating back to 2017. The most important feature is a rising support line connecting major lows over several years. At the same time, a descending resistance line connects several cycle peaks.
Those two trendlines created a large symmetrical triangle pattern. XRP broke above that structure after a massive surge in late 2024, and is now testing the previous resistance. If that level holds, XRP could target the Green Box, which is currently between $8.5 and $15.
Why the Pink Box Matters
A pink zone appears below current price levels on JD’s chart. The analyst identified that region as a potential destination if support fails. While JD stated that a move into the zone would represent a crash, he also indicated that he would welcome such a decline.
He described the scenario as a buying opportunity, writing, “I rather crash so my target hits!” He has previously highlighted this area as a buying opportunity for investors, and expects the asset to establish a new base there before attempting another advance.
The technical picture now centers on a single level. A successful defense of the trendline would give XRP fresh momentum and speed up the move toward the Green Box. However, if support gives way, JD’s chart points toward the Pink Box as the next major area of interest, representing a deeper correction within the broader structure.
