XRP is pushing against what analyst EGRAG CRYPTO described as an important resistance band, with a new chart arguing that the token is entering a decisive technical phase. In the analyst’s framework, the immediate question is whether the ascending triangle that formed below “Zone 1” could trigger the next leg higher and whether that move could re-open the path to the cycle’s previous high.
In a post on X, EGRAG included the independent setup as “Ascending Triangle vs Zone 1 (Decision Time)” and tied the structure to a powerful policy maker: the Law of Clarity. The five-day chart of XRP/USD shows price pressure below the blue resistance area around $1.65 to $1.70, while the rising lower line suggests that buyers have continued to enter the dip.
The core of the thesis is straightforward. According to EGRAG, “The Chart Means the following: Ascending Triangle forming below Zone 1 ($1.65–$1.70). Lower high = buyers coming in. Resistance flat = liquidity sitting above. This is classic breakout fuel.”
Possible path of XRP to ATH
That interpretation is subject to general fluctuations in market structure. An ascending triangle usually shows repeated buying interest at continuously higher levels, as sellers continue to defend a fixed ceiling. In EGRAG’s reading, that ceiling is Zone 1, and the intensity range below it creates stress.

EGRAG does not present the pattern as a guaranteed output. Instead, the post offers clear opportunities for both approaches. “Break Over Zone 1: ~ 65%. The structure supports the continuation. Momentum is under pressure,” wrote the analyst. “Rejection / Counterfeit: ~ 35%. If there is no source → funding is swept first. If the Law of Clarity is reversed, rejection becomes a possibility.”
Notably, the post repeatedly points to the Clarity Act as a narrative catalyst that “may open” the break above Zone 1. In other words, the triangle may maintain pressure, but the release still depends on a macro or policy trigger strong enough to force the price with higher supply.

However, EGRAG argues that clearing Zone 1 will only be the first step. The post asks what it will take for XRP to reach “Zone 2,” marked around $2.60 and above on the chart. The answer requires more than just one candle of relaxation.
EGRAG wrote: “Breaking Zone 1 is not enough. “To break Zone 2 ($2.60+), we need institutional flow / ETF style exposure, BTC stability or decline, [and] closing weekly over $1.85–$2.00.”
For now, the analyst’s summary is more measured than euphoric: “Triangle = Pressure. Zone 1 = Trigger. Zone 2 = Expansion. Catalyst starts the move…..Liquidity finishes it.”
That leaves XRP at an inflection point. If buyers can’t turn the current squeeze into a clean move through Zone 1, the conversation quickly shifts from pattern recognition to extended targets. If not, EGRAG’s own framework suggests that the market could sweep in small amounts first, especially if the Clarity Act fails to arrive on time.
At press time, XRP traded at $1.44.
