Bitcoin Cash Price Trend
There was no stopping buyers as bitcoin cash price climbed above the $1,200 level against the US Dollar. The price even succeeded in trading above the $1,250 level to set the pace for more gains. The last swing high was at $1,265 from where there was a minor downside correction. It declined and tested the $1,200 support area, which acted as a strong barrier for sellers.
A new recovery wave was initiated and the price moved above the $1,250 level. It is currently trading above the last swing high at $1,265.

Once there is a break above the mentioned fib extension, the price may perhaps break the $1,300 level. The next stop could be the 1.618 fib extension of the last decline from the $1,265 high to $1,181 low at $1,317.
