Bitcoin Cash Price Analysis
This week, bitcoin cash price remained in a strong uptrend above the $400 pivot level against the US Dollar. BCH price rallied above the $440 and $450 resistance levels to move further into a positive zone.
Besides, there was a close above the $450 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). Finally, the price climbed above the $480 level and traded to a new 2020 high at $487.
Recently, it started consolidating gains and corrected below the 480 level. It broke the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $434 low to $487 high.
However, there is a strong support forming on the downside near the $460 level. More importantly, there is a key rising channel forming with support near $460 on the 4-hours chart of the BCH/USD pair.
The channel support is also close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $434 low to $487 high. Therefore, the price is likely to remain supported above $460. Below the channel support, the next support is near the $450 level.
The 55 simple moving average (4-hours) is also near the $450 level to provide support. Any further losses may perhaps lead the price towards the $420 support.
On the upside, the $480 and $485 levels are initial hurdles. A clear break above the $485 level is needed for a push towards the key $500 handle in the near term.
