In a technical analysis shared by crypto analyst Bobby A (@Bobby_1111888) on X, the analyst projects that XRP will potentially reach the $15 mark in this bull run, contingent upon historical price movement patterns aligning. The analysis delves into XRP’s past market cycles, applying percentage-based extrapolations and chart pattern assessments to forecast future price trajectories.
Is A XRP Price Of $15 Realistic?
Bobby A’s analysis juxtaposes XRP’s performance during its 2017 market cycle against its current 2024 trajectory. From the range-high breakout in 2017, marked by a horizontal black dashed line on the chart, XRP experienced an initial appreciation of 629%.
In comparison, the asset has appreciated approximately 331% since its range-high breakout in 2024. Extending further back, from the December 2014 high to the May 2017 peak—approaching the 4.236 Fibonacci extension—XRP saw a staggering 1,330% increase.

Applying the principle of reducing percentage point increases by half, as observed from the initial surge in 2017, Bobby A posits that XRP’s next impulse could result in a 665% increase. This calculation positions XRP at an approximate $15.00 near the 4.236 Fibonacci extension level.
“XRP appears to be cutting its percentage point increases in half compared to its 2017 market cycle. If XRP cuts its next impulse in half from a percentage point increase perspective, as it did with this first one, it would put the asset’s price at roughly ~$15.00 near its 4.236 extension after a possible 665% increase,” Bobby A elaborates.
Notably, the analyst also notices a developing bull flag pattern, a continuation pattern that typically signals the potential for further upward movement. This bull flag is targeting the upper boundary of XRP’s macro parallel channel, estimated around the $10.50 price level. “The current bull flag the asset is forming targets the top of its macro parallel channel near $10.50,” Bobby A notes.
