An interesting pattern hinting at a potential monumental jump in value has formed on the&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/xrp-price-prediction-for-july-10" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP price</a> chart. This time, the focus is on the Bollinger Bands, a popular technical indicator for traders.
For those unfamiliar with Bollinger Bands, developed by famous trader John Bollinger, they consist of a simple moving average and two standard deviations above and below it. The narrowing of these bands usually indicates a period of low volatility, often preceding significant price movements.
Thus, the current analysis shows that the bands are experiencing a notable narrowing comparable only to what happened once in 2017, when there was an unprecedented jump in the price of&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/xrp-faces-issues-before-05-shiba-inu-shib-000002-reversal-arc-begins-solana-sol-might-face-mini" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP</a> by a staggering 55,000%. At that time, the cryptocurrency's price peaked at $3.30 per token by early 2018.

The last time it squeezed like that it shot up 60,000% <a href="https://t.co/WU1fspKkwz" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/WU1fspKkwz</a>— The Great Mattsby (@matthughes13) <a href="https://twitter.com/matthughes13/status/1811229376203378981?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">July 11, 2024</a>
</blockquote>
Narrowing also occurred after that, but such strong movements were no longer predicted.&nbsp; For example, in late 2020, the emergence of this pattern preceded a significant sevenfold increase in the&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/ripple-ceo-takes-aim-at-anti-crypto-sec-commissioner" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">price of XRP</a>, reaching almost $2 per token by April 2021.
Thus the continued narrowing of the Bollinger Bands, which began in November 2022, adds weight to arguments in favor of a potential rise in the value of XRP in the near future.
XRP is currently trading at less than half a dollar per token. Will it be able to execute such a powerful price bounce from there? It seems that only the most desperate optimist would believe it. However, what can be known for sure on the crypto market?
