Even after all the excitement of a bull market and the disappointment of the bear market, some crypto assets continue to hold momentum and maintain high sentiments for bullish action. One of the few popular altcoins in the market, Ripple’s XRP, continues to show bullish indicators for a strong surge in prices. Thus, Ripple altcoin gains attention as XRP supertrend indicator flips bullish for first time since January.

Ripple Altcoin Gains Attention as XRP Supertrend Indicator Flips Bullish

As the crypto market continues to trade in sideways movements, the price of BTC, ETH, XRP, and several other altcoins continue to hold prices at a strong range, meaning bullish surges are highly likely, if not imminent. At the moment, most altcoin assets continue to print bullish signals, as they have been doing since the start of the latest bull cycle, feeding hope and high expectations for a long-awaited altseason peak phase.

In fact, the price of ETH holding the price range above the $2,000 region is a highly bullish indicator that the altseason peak phase could very well play out in 2026. So far, bullish analysts and altcoin experts believe the price of ETH could go on to hit new ATH prices between $5,000 to as high as $12,000 in the peak phase of the upcoming altseason, thereby propelling the prices of other altcoins as well.

This Indicator is the First Since January

Over the months, following the $20 billion liquidation event in October 2025, many altcoin prices dipped severely only to steadily build back up to promising prices once again. Among the many bullish altcoins in the market, ETH, ADA, and XRP seem to be some of the most bullish altcoin assets in the space. In particular, XRP is gaining more attention as the XRP supertrend indicator flips bullish for the first time since January.

As we can see from the post above, the SuperTrend indicator on the XRP daily chart flipped bullish on Saturday, marking the first buy signal since January 17 after three months of sustained sell pressure. The shift was flagged by a popular analyst, who noted that the indicator now acts as a dynamic support line and signals a potential change in the broader market structure.

To highlight, XRP is trading near $1.48 with a market cap of $91.3 billion and a 24-hour volume of roughly $4 billion. The token is up 6.88% over the past week but remains down 28.73% year over year. The critical level remains $1.55, which aligns with the 100-day EMA and has capped multiple rally attempts since February. A decisive daily close above this resistance could open the path toward $1.70 and $1.90.

Its near-term trajectory will also depend on broader macro conditions, including whether the current US-Iran ceasefire holds past its April 22 expiry and progress on the Clarity Act in the Senate Banking Committee. XRP spot ETFs recorded $11.87 million in net inflows on April 16. Ripple’s recent Wrapped XRP launch on Solana via LayerZero and Hex Trust has expanded the token’s utility across Solana DeFi.
