From the price of XRP at 1.31 on April 3rd, combined with the one-hour and four-hour structure, it is clear to see a warning signal: the market has shifted from consolidation to weakness, entering the 'bearish dominance + continuation of decline phase.'

Four-hour level (trend reversal confirmed)

The four-hour chart has already shown structural damage:

The previous key support at 1.35 has been effectively broken → Trend reversal signal

High points continue to decline → Bearish trend established

Rebound is getting weaker → Bulls have completely lost initiative

Core logic:

The trend has clearly turned bearish, and the rebound only provides opportunities for bears

One-hour level (short signal)

The short cycle is showing a typical weak market:

Broke down and rebounded weakly → Weak rebound structure is obvious

Consolidation but continually declining → Bearish trend continues

If it breaks below 1.30 again → Easy to trigger accelerated decline

It's not that the decline is over, but rather 'it hasn't declined enough'
