The analyst first teased the chart on X: I’ll clarify how XRP is anticipated to focus on $8 within the upcoming days with key ranges and my enter and exit methods […] I’ll share it on X […].” He later shared the chart and defined: “XRP continues the daily correction and consolidates under the $3 level, which will be the breakeven point for continuing with our targets. Wave 3 indicates $5.85 is at sight and closer than ever before. This structure aims at $8+ levels with its 5th Wave shortly.”
The XRP Value Evaluation Damaged Down
In response to Darkish Defender’s newest day by day chart, XRP has been buying and selling inside a descending channel (recognized by two white development strains), from which it beforehand broke out.

On the chart, XRP hovers round $2.56, and the analyst emphasizes the $3 essential stage as the required “breakeven point” for resuming bullish momentum towards larger targets. The XRP worth wants to interrupt by the highest white trendline on the chart to construct momentum in Wave (3).
The chart additionally contains a highlighted 261.8% Fibonacci extension line round $5.8563, signaling a projected Wave (3) goal. After a presumed Wave (4) pullback beneath $4.50, Wave (5) targets $8+ — a zone that Darkish Defender believes XRP might attain “shortly.”
In the remark part beneath the put up, one consumer, @pommapomatum, questioned whether or not XRP’s second wave legitimately dipped beneath the beginning of Wave (1), a transfer sometimes inconsistent with classical Elliott Wave principle. Darkish Defender responded by citing a historic precedent from December 6, 2017.
“You are right. However, when we check XRP history, we see similar wicks down to clear the way for the next move. We had this type of extraordinary move on December 6, 2017. XRP went from 30 cents to 0.002 cents and then within a month, XRP hit the ATH at $3.82,” Darkish Defender acknowledged.

@pommapomatum countered that the 2017 wick has been exchange-specific and never indicative of market-wide circumstances. Darkish Defender acknowledged this concern, noting that not all platforms confirmed the dramatic wick in 2017 and that the identical discrepancy appeared yesterday on sure exchanges.
“It was the same case yesterday. Not all the exchanges had the same wick. E.g. Kraken. I think that is an exception and chosen to exclude that wick but candle close,” the analyst remarked.
Notably, the Ichimoku Cloud on the chart underscores ongoing consolidation as XRP’s worth strikes beneath the $3 threshold. Darkish Defender describes this help zone as key for bullish continuation, noting {that a} decisive break above $3 would verify the following main wave towards $5.85 (Wave (3)) and, in the end, an $8+ goal (Wave (5)) if the sample follows by as envisaged.
At press time, XRP traded at $2.50.
