Bitcoin Cash Price Analysis

This past week, bitcoin cash price extended its decline below the main $225 support against the US Dollar. BCH price even broke the $215 support and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours).

The decline was such that the price traded close to the $200 handle. A low was formed near $205 and recently the price started a decent recovery wave. There was a break above the $210 and $215 levels.

The bulls were able to push the price above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last key drop from the $245 high to $205 low. However, the price is currently facing a strong resistance near the $224 and $225 levels (the recent breakdown zone).

It seems like the 50% Fib retracement level of the last key drop from the $245 high to $205 low is also acting as a hurdle. More importantly, there is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $224 on the 4-hours chart of the BCH/USD pair.

The pair is clearly facing an uphill task near the $225 level and the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). A clear break above the $225 resistance could open the doors for a larger upward move. The next major resistance is near the $235 level, followed by $240.

Conversely, the price is likely to continue lower below the $215 support level. The next major support is near the $205 and $200 levels, where the bulls are likely to take a stand.

Looking at the chart, bitcoin cash price must surpass the $224 and $225 resistance levels to start a fresh increase in the near term. If not, there could be a sharp decline towards the $200 handle.
