XRP has been trying to carry its momentum higher after last week’s rally, but it is currently running into a familiar ceiling. The token is hovering at the top of its consolidation band, trading in the roughly $1.3 to $1.4 area, yet buyers have not been able to push it through into a sustained breakout.
Even so, XRP’s daily MACD has flipped bullish for the first time since January, a shift that could signal improving momentum and a potential renewed leg up.
According to market expert Sam Daodu, whether this reversal holds will depend on key developments over the next ten days. Several major macro and regulatory milestones will act as near-term “trigger points.”
Daodu notes that on XRP’s daily chart, the MACD line remained below the signal line for most of 2026. Attempts to flip bullish repeatedly failed until now. The difference this time, he says, is that the bullish change has managed to hold rather than reversing immediately.
He also points out that when XRP has seen the MACD flip before, it has not been a small event. The last time the same type of bullish signal held, XRP recorded its biggest move in months.
Daodu projects that if the key factors align, institutions waiting for regulatory cover could add another $4 to $8 billion into XRP ETFs.
From a price-confirmation perspective, he adds that a daily close above $1.55 would validate the MACD flip and reinforce the idea that the current breakout attempt is more than a temporary spike.
If that confirmation arrives, the upside targets he references point back towards $1.80. This would represent a 25% rally from the current level of $1.43.
Daodu also outlines a clearer path for momentum to fade. In his view, the fastest way for momentum to fade is for the ceasefire to expire on April 22 without a new deal.
If fighting resumes, he expects oil prices to climb back above $100, which can quickly pressure risk assets. In that environment, the MACD could flip back to bearish. He also says that if the CLARITY Act stalls beyond May, XRP would likely give back the move it has built so far, potentially sliding to $1.30 or lower.

Premium gym chains are entering a “golden era” that is ending or already in decline, as rising operating costs collide with shifting consumer preferences toward more flexible, community-based ways to exercise. Long-term memberships are shrinking, margins are pressured by higher rents and facility expenses, and competition from smaller, more personalized…
