Analyst TARA (X: @PrecisionTrade3) has laid out a long-range roadmap suggesting XRP may need as many as five macro cycles to clear $100 — and that milestone could be years away under current market dynamics.
What TARA mapped
- The projection is price-based only, not time-based. “Keep in mind that I measured for price only, NOT time. I used only the textbook/conservative targets and as the cycles develop, each of these targets will be adjusted with the actuals,” the analyst wrote.
- Using a 12-month XRP/USDT Binance chart, TARA plotted a staircase of cycle tops:
- Cycle 1: $3.65 (completed)
- Cycle 2: ~$8.68
- Cycle 3: ~$22.50
- Cycle 4: ~$59
- Cycle 5: ~$153
- Under that framework, XRP wouldn’t clear $100 until Cycle 5 — meaning multiple waves, corrections and years could separate the token from triple-digit price territory.
Timing, corrections and realism
- The chart prompted questions about calendar timing. TARA didn’t give a fixed timespan but allowed that, “Yea maybe 10 years at the current rate… hard to tell… and of course SO many factors can accelerate these cycles.”
- This is not a straight-line rally. TARA emphasized sequential structure with pullbacks: expect conservative retracements (potentially back toward ~$3.65) and “2 major corrections should be expected otw to $22,” reinforcing a choppy, non-parabolic ascent.
Near-term technicals
- TARA’s near-term view remains cautious. On March 9 the analyst identified the .618 Fibonacci at $1.47 as resistance and the .5 level at $1.33 as support; a deeper .786 support around $0.87 was flagged as likely before a larger Wave 3 advance.
- TARA said XRP could still drop to $0.87 before printing new all-time highs. A brief upside extension is possible: if XRP breaks $1.47 and Bitcoin targets $75.4k–$79k, XRP could spike as high as ~$1.88 before resuming a pullback to $0.87.
- TARA noted exchange pricing differences: the $1.88 resistance on Binance roughly equates to $2.02 on Coinbase. She also flagged that XRP’s RSI was “not breaking out,” suggesting recent moves look corrective rather than trend-confirming.
Takeaway
TARA’s scenario is conservative and price-target driven: it lays out a multi-cycle climb to nine figures but assumes several sizable corrections along the way. Targets will be updated as price action unfolds. At the time of the post, XRP traded around $1.50.
This roadmap is a long-term structural view, not a short-term trading call — and, as the analyst admits, many external factors (including Bitcoin’s path) could speed up or delay the timeline.
