XRP recently bounced, but honestly, this might just be a false alarm. After a long decline, it suddenly rose, looking fierce, but in reality, the overall downward trend hasn't changed — this is a typical dead cat bounce.
From the candlestick chart, there are quite a few issues. The main moving averages are still pressing down on the price, acting as a ceiling rather than support. Although momentum indicators like RSI have shown some short-term rise, the momentum is clearly insufficient. In other words, the bears have been selling aggressively, and the oversold buybacks can't support a higher price. Trading volume is also unimpressive, and the market has little confidence in this rebound.
Over the past few months, XRP has been hammered and hasn't fully recovered. Once there are signs of a rebound, it easily attracts follow-on traders expecting an immediate reversal. Most of them get trapped near resistance levels. Historical data shows that, in such situations, the probability of prices falling again is much higher than continuing to rise.
Timing is also crucial. Even if some expect a quick rebound, the market actually needs a longer consolidation period to truly bottom out. Before XRP stabilizes, every upward attempt is prone to failure. Simply put, this rebound is a short-term opportunity and doesn't mean the bull market has returned. Be cautious about chasing highs, and don't rush in to buy just because of a temporary increase.

I believe in the dead cat bounce. I've seen the moving averages pressing down before, and in the end, it still fell back.
Those who follow the trend into the market will all get trapped; history just repeats itself like this.

I've heard the "dead cat bounce" theory too many times, but this wave of XRP really doesn't look convincing.
Those chasing this rebound are all bagholders; I just don't believe it.

I'm tired of the dead cat bounce routine; someone always falls for it every time.

The "dead cat bounce" rhetoric is getting old, but XRP really looks weak this time
Here we go again, trapping others in a false move, latecomer retail investors are going to get hurt again
This kind of market really wears you out to watch, the moving averages pressing down has become a fate

the RSI exhaustion pattern here is basically screaming "transmutation incomplete"... those oversold bounces don't have the protocol strength to sustain upward momentum tbh

The dead cat bounce thing, I've been tired of it for a long time. This wave of XRP is just the last frantic move of the bears. Don't be fooled.
To put it bluntly, those entering the market now are all newbies, and the resistance level will definitely be broken.
Really wait until the bottom stabilizes, at least wait until the moving averages turn bullish. Chasing high now just means waiting to get cut.
Volume is the real indicator. I don't believe in rebounds without volume.
That previous wave, I was caught at a high position. This time I’ve learned my lesson, just watching the show.

Dead cat bounce, the old trick is back again, still so easy to trap people
Alright, the moving averages are still pressing overhead, and the trading volume hasn't caught up. Let's just consider this rally as entertainment
XRP's pattern, a short-term rebound is a rebound, but no one can really tell the bottom. Those chasing highs are just sending their heads to be chopped off

Dead cat bounce, I know this trick too well; someone always falls for it every time.

Dead cat bounce strategy, every time someone falls for it, I feel sorry for the brothers chasing the high.
