XRP (XRP) price fell 22% between March 19 and March 31, potentially forming a local bottom at $2.02. The price then increased by 9% to $2.20 before retracing to current levels.
Has the popular altcoin finally bottomed out, or is there a deeper retracement in the cards?
XRP bullish divergence on multiple timeframes
The XRP relative strength index (RSI) displays bullish divergence conditions in lower timeframes, according to analyst CasiTrades.
A bullish divergence is when the asset’s price prints lower lows and the RSI produces higher lows, indicating that downward momentum is waning.
“After reaching the 0.786 retrace at $2.05, XRP is printing bullish divergences from the 15-min all the way up to the 4-hour chart,” the analyst said in a March 31 post on X.
CasiTrades notes that these signals are a positive indicator both for short-term bounces and potential macro recovery.

She added that $2.25 remains a key resistance level to watch, as breaching it with strong momentum would signal a convincing bullish breakout.
“If we break above $2.25 with strong momentum, that would invalidate the need for another support retest, a very bullish sign,” CasiTrades said, adding that the demand zone between “$2.00 and $2.01 remains a support if the $2.05 doesn’t hold.”
The analyst projects a bullish month for XRP in April, with targets of $2.70 and $3.80 in the short term.

Is the XRP local bottom in?
Despite XRP’s recent recovery from local lows, the risk of a deeper correction remains, according to veteran trader Peter Brandt.
Last week, Brandt said the presence of a “textbook” head-and-shoulders pattern (H&S) could see XRP price as low as $1.07.
This potential H&S pattern is still in play on the daily chart (see below) and will be completed on a break and close below the neckline at $1.90.
If the price stays below the neckline, the pair could plummet to $1.50 and then to the pattern’s target of $1.07.
Brandt said:
Brandt said this bearish chart pattern would be invalidated if buyers push and maintain the price above $3.00.
Meanwhile, macroeconomic headwinds from US tariffs on April 2 may spook traders, pulling the XRP price toward $1.31.
Not everyone agrees. Analyst Dark Defender shared a positive outlook, saying that XRP price is likely to revisit the last Fibonacci level at $2.04 before bouncing back again.
According to the analyst, a key resistance level for XRP is $2.22, which “should be broken” to ensure a sustained recovery toward the Wave 5 target at $8.
