Bitcoin Cash Price Analysis
After consolidating for many days above the 0 level, bitcoin cash price reacted to the downside against the US Dollar. The BCH/USD pair failed to break the 0 and 0 resistance levels and declined sharply. It broke the 2, 0 and 0 support levels to move into a bearish zone. There was even a close below the 0 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
It seems like the BCH/USD pair was rejected near a major bearish trend line with current resistance at 5 on the hourly chart. The pair traded close to the 0 handle and formed a low at 8. It is currently consolidating just below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the 8 high to 8 low. The price may perhaps correct a few points above the 5 level. However, gains could be limited and levels such as 0 and 5 are likely to prevent gains. Moreover, the 50% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the 8 high to 8 low awaits near 3.
Looking at the chart, BCH price has moved into a bearish zone below the 5 level. If there is any recovery in the short term, buyers are likely to struggle near 0 or 5.
