A widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader is leaning bullish on XRP.

The analyst pseudonymously known as CredibleCrypto tells his 450,200 followers on the social media platform X that paired against Bitcoin (BTC), XRP “looks absolutely fantastic.”

The trader says he plans to enter a long position in the coming days.

Based on the analyst’s chart on the one-hour time frame, it appears he is suggesting that XRP could first trend downwards before skyrocketing by at least 65%.

It also appears that the analyst believes XRP has formed an inverse head-and-shoulders pattern in the same time frame. An inverse head-and-shoulders pattern is considered a bullish signal in technical analysis.

“Still the most bullish-looking chart in the entire space off the lows in my opinion. Just a powder keg building pressure…”

XRP is trading at 0.00002323 BTC ($2.28) at time of writing.

Next up is Ethereum (ETH). CredibleCrypto says that ETH is likely to trade in a range of between $3,000 and $3,800 before bottoming out at around $2,800.

Based on the pseudonymous analyst’s chart on the 12-hour time frame, he suggests Ethereum could then rally to a new all-time high above $6,000.

Ethereum is trading at $3,492 at time of writing.

Turning to the Ethereum/Bitcoin pair, the widely followed analyst says he is still targeting Ethereum to drop to around the 0.02700 BTC to 0.02800 BTC level before he can enter a long position. According to CredibleCrypto, ETH/BTC is now “grinding back down” after initially rallying.

“Would be an absolutely epic entry if we get it that will probably mark this cycles pico bottom on ETH/BTC as well.”

ETH is trading at 0.03542 BTC at time of writing.

Former Goldman Sachs executive Raoul Pal believes that the crypto market will rally heading into the end of 2024.

In a new interview with crypto trader Scott Melker, the macro guru says that based on historic precedence, Bitcoin (BTC) and other digital assets may put up larger gains during the last week and half of December.

A rally at this time of year is often referred to as a Santa Claus rally, a financial term used to describe a calendar effect on traditional equities that historically have gone up on the last five market trading days of the year in December and the first two trading days of the new year.

“Normally, what happens at this phase is we should rally into year-end pretty strongly in everything. But then the real game gets played in first quarter.”

Pal also believes that the most explosive rally of the current market cycle is still to come and that it could occur next year, possibly around the Fed’s meeting in March when rates may be cut.

“I think my next phraseology is going to be the banana singularity, that’s when everything goes bananas…

So we’re not at the banana zone singularity point yet. That will come as well. That’s probably sometime Fed March when it all gets silly.”

However, Pal also warns there may be a temporary correction around the end of the year after a rally due to liquidity tightening. He believes the growing money supply is a catalyst for Bitcoin price, and that when it declines so does the flagship crypto’s price.

“Let’s look at the last [US President Donald] Trump administration. So from September to the end of the year, the dollar rallied. September to the end of the year, rates went up. Same narrative. It was all about tariffs and what’s he going to do and how’s it going to play out.

Almost exactly as the year turned, the dollar went lower, the rates went lower. So I’ve been producing a chart showing that global liquidity tightened and it has a 10-week lead time, and that should mean that at the end of the year, we get a correction.”

Bitcoin is trading for $94,367 at time of writing, down more than 11% in the last seven days.
