Bitcoin Cash Price Analysis
Yesterday, we discussed that bitcoin cash price could break the $150 level against the US Dollar. The BCH/USD pair remained in a bearish zone and it did trade below the $160 and $150 levels. The decline was nasty as the price is now trading well below the $155 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. The last swing low was formed near the $145 level before the price corrected higher.
It climbed above the $150 level and the $152 pivot level. There was a break above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent slide from the $166 high to $145 low. However, the upside move was capped by the $155 and $156 resistance levels. The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent slide from the $166 high to $145 low also acted as a resistance. Moreover, there is also a new connecting bearish trend line formed with resistance near $148 on the hourly chart of the BCH/USD pair. The pair declined again and broke the $145 low.
