Bitcoin Cash Price Trend
The past few sessions were pretty bullish as bitcoin cash price started an upside ride from the $1,040 swing low against the US Dollar. The price surged higher and broke many hurdles on the way up, including $1,100. It even managed to clear the $1,180 resistance and spiked above the $1,200 level. A high was formed at $1,209 before the price started a downside correction.
An initial support is around the 23.2% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $1,075 low to $1,209 high. There is also a key ascending channel formed with support at $1,170 on the hourly chart of the BCH/USD pair. The pair remains in an uptrend as long as the price $1,100 pivot level is intact. Below the channel support, the next support is near the 50% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $1,075 low to $1,209 high at $1,142.
