Solana Eyes $150 As Bullish Engulfing Candlestick Appears, Expert Forecast 600% Rally For XRP

Key Insights:

A bullish engulfing candlestick pattern on Solana’s chart signals a potential price surge to $150 this week if buying momentum persists.

Analyst Javon Marks predicts XRP could rise by 600% in 2026, potentially reaching over $15, based on historical price movements and current bullish trends.

Solana and XRP both show strong technical indicators, with Solana breaking a trendline and XRP reclaiming the $2 mark, signaling further bullish potential.

The crypto market is

currently on an uptrend, fuelled by Bitcoin's ascent above $92K. An analyst, Curb.sol has sighted a bullish reversal pattern on the Solana price chart. He forecasts the value of SOL could soar to $150 this week.

Also, Javon Marks is bullish about XRP. He predicted that the value of the altcoin could soar by 600% this year.

Analyst Sees A Bullish Pattern On The Solana Price Chart

In a recent X post, crypto analyst Curb.sol told his followers that a bullish weekly reversal candlestick pattern has appeared on the Solana chart. The chart accompanying his tweet noted that this was a bullish engulfing candlestick.

A bullish engulfing candlestick is a two-candle pattern that appears after a downtrend, where a large green candle fully “engulfs” the previous red candle. It signals that buyers took control from sellers and may indicate a potential reversal to the upside.

According to Curb.sol, the Solana price could soar to $150 this week based on this bullish candlestick. Investor Jordan is also optimistic about SOL climbing to $150, stating that it has broken above a descending trendline.

He also added that the RSI has flipped for the first time since October. In the meantime, the Solana price has increased by 5.9% on the weekly chart. 

The altcoin has soared above $130 and could climb higher if buying pressure continues to rise. Meanwhile, technical indicators are currently bullish and favour this uptrend. 

The RSI value of 56 indicates that buying momentum is high. Nevertheless, to avoid a reversal to $124, bulls will have to protect the support at the 50-SMA ($131).

XRP Predicted To Soar By 600% In 2026

The XRP price has reclaimed the $2 region after losing it on December 15. CoinMarketCap data shows the XRP coin has gains of 12.0% and 4.2% on the weekly and monthly charts.

The RSI has moved above the midline after falling to oversold levels. Based on this bullish trend and continuous XRP ETF inflows, analysts reckon that 2026 may be a bullish year for the altcoin. One such analyst is Javon Marks. He noted that previous alt-seasons showed major price moves for XRP. 

The price began at approximately $0.0061 in 2017 and then shot up more than 44,000% to over $2.77. XRP started the year 2021 with an approximate price of $0.20 and rose by 1,000% to reach approximately $1.96. 

Looking at 2026, Marks estimated a starting point near $2.00 and suggested that a “modest” target would be a run of more than 600%, placing XRP above $15 if similar market dynamics played out again.

Another analyst who believes 2026 might be a landmark year for XRP is ChartNerd. He noted that the 2025/2026 cycle is similar to 2016/2017, following the pattern of double top, wick drop, and explosion.

The first two patterns have already played out, and ChartNerd is waiting for a potential explosion.

In Summary

Solana and XRP may rise to new price targets within the coming weeks. Should Solana reclaim the region of $150, it may shoot to $200 within the next few weeks. XRP, however, is nowhere near the target of $15. However, greater adoption, inflows of XRP ETFs and positive regulations may drive this rally.
