This week, we delve into the intricacies of Ripple, Cardano, Optimism, Solana, and Dogecoin.
Ripple (XRP)
XRP has experienced a stellar month, with prices surging 74% in the past week, inching closer to the $1.5 mark. During the previous bull market, XRP climbed to nearly $2 before facing resistance.
The current all-time high of $3.3 suggests significant potential for further growth. Buyers must overcome $1.6 and $2 to aim for $3 or beyond.
XRP's rally remains strong, with its first significant test around $2. However, a pullback is likely given the recent price surge.
Cardano (ADA)
Cardano is nearing the $1 mark after a remarkable week marked by a 47% price appreciation. This has revitalized the ADA community, which has eagerly anticipated this rally.
Price support has been established around 80 cents, and the 90-cent resistance is being challenged. A breakout could lead to a surge towards $1, potentially attracting sellers looking to secure profits.
Buyers have a favorable outlook, supported by this week's price surge. ADA's current all-time high of $3.1 provides ample room for speculation.
Optimism (OP)
Optimism has broken above the crucial $2 resistance level, resulting in a 34% price increase this week. This strong performance signals market optimism and a readiness for higher levels following an extended consolidation since June 2024.
Backed by solid support at $2, OP can now target higher levels, with $2.5 and $3 as key milestones. If the rally persists at its current pace, these targets could be reached within the next week.
OP's performance is linked to Ethereum's resurgence this week, as Layer-2 networks like Optimism benefit from its growth.
Solana (SOL)
Solana reached a new all-time high of $264 this week, returning to price levels last seen in 2021. With a 22% increase, it emerged as the top performer among the top 10 coins after XRP and ADA.
A pullback followed the new record, with sellers likely taking profits at these elevated levels. Once this subsides, SOL could embark on a price discovery phase similar to Bitcoin.
Strong support is available at $240 should the selling pressure intensify. However, the uptrend is expected to resume, leading to new price records in the coming weeks. A key target currently stands at $300.
Dogecoin (DOGE)
Dogecoin is poised for its next major move, concluding the week with a 6% price gain. This meme coin has been consolidating below 40 cents, which remains a crucial resistance level. A breakout and subsequent support from this level would allow DOGE to explore significantly higher levels.
If the resistance is breached, 48 and 59 cents become the next potential targets. Buyers continue to hold the momentum, increasing the likelihood of a breakout.
DOGE could aim for its all-time high of 74 cents, which is within reach given the threefold price increase in November.
