Bitcoin Cash Price Analysis
Yesterday, we saw a solid upward move above the $550 resistance in bitcoin cash price against the US Dollar. The BCH/USD pair traded towards the $600 level and formed a high at $589. Later, there was a minor downside correction and the price traded below $550. There was also a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last upside from the $473 low to $489 high.
On the downside, the $535 level acted as a decent support and prevented further losses. Moreover, there was no break below the 50% Fib retracement level of the last upside from the $473 low to $489 high. The price is currently consolidating above the $535 support. More importantly, there is a key contracting triangle formed with resistance at $570 on the hourly chart of the BCH/USD pair. If the pair breaks the triangle resistance at $570, it will most likely revisit the $589 high. Above the stated high, the price could test the $600 level, which is a major barrier. On the other hand, a downside break below $550 may well push the price towards the $535 support.
