Bitcoin Cash Price Analysis

Earlier this week, bitcoin cash price started a steady decline below the $300 support against the US Dollar. BCH price even traded below the $280 support and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).

The decline was such that the price broke the $265 support and traded to a new weekly low at $285. It is currently correcting higher and trading above the $265 level. The price is approaching the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $295 high to $258 low.

On the upside, there is a key resistance forming near $270 and $272. There is also a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $272 on the 4-hours chart of the BCH/USD pair.

Above the trend line, the next resistance is near $275 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $295 high to $258 low. The next major resistance is near the $280 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).

To move into a positive zone, the price must break the trend line resistance and then gain pace above the $280 level. Conversely, the price may perhaps continue to move down below the $260 support.

If there is a bearish close below the $260 level, the price could extend towards the $250 support. The next major support is near the $242 level.
