Bitcoin Cash Price Analysis
Earlier this month, we saw a massive drop in bitcoin cash price below $150 and $100 supports against the US Dollar. The BCH/USD pair even broke the $90 and $80 support levels. It traded to a new monthly low at $72 before buyers took a stand. During the past few days, there was a sharp upward move and the price recovered above the $80, $95 and $100 resistance levels.
It even broke the $125 resistance and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $199 high to $72 low. More importantly, there was a break above a crucial bearish trend line with resistance at $90 on the 4-hours chart of the BCH/USD pair. The pair settled above the $125 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). Currently, the 50% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $199 high to $72 low is acting as a resistance. Besides, the $145-150 zone is a crucial barrier (the previous support) for buyers.
Looking at the chart, bitcoin cash price clearly recovered nicely above $100 and $110. To continue higher, it must surpass the $150 resistance. The key supports on the downside are visible at $120 and $108.
