XRP is forming what technical analysts describe as an Adam and Eve base structure on the daily chart, a classic bullish reversal pattern that has been developing since early February.
The formation is maturing, higher lows are building, and the token has broken above a descending resistance line that had capped it for weeks. But one critical barrier remains, and the entire thesis rests on clearing it.
The structure began in early February when XRP fell to a local low of $1.12 before staging a sharp V-shaped recovery back to $1.50. That initial drop and recovery formed the Adam component of the pattern, characterised by its sharp, decisive shape. What has followed since is the Eve: a slower, more rounded base building below the $1.50 level.

The neckline of the pattern sits precisely at $1.50. A confirmed daily close above that level, followed by a sustained hold, would technically validate the formation and open a measured move toward $1.70 to $1.80, a zone that served as significant support for XRP for approximately 13 consecutive months before the January breakdown.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});The $1.50 resistance is not just a pattern neckline. It coincides exactly with XRP’s 50-day exponential moving average on the daily chart, creating a confluence of technical resistance that makes the level considerably harder to break than a single price point would be.
However, the 50-day EMA, sitting directly overhead at $1.50, has acted as resistance on multiple occasions during the current correction cycle, including in October and November 2025, when the token rallied to that level before posting lower highs and then declining.
Whether this attempt is different depends on whether a close above it can be held as support on a retest rather than surrendered again.
