- Bitcoin Cash (BCH) trades near $431, consolidating after a recent high around $438 amid weakening bullish momentum.
- Indicators show indecision: RSI is falling from 66.67 to 60.46, and MACD momentum is fading despite a bullish crossover.
- Support at $415.58 is crucial; a break below risks a drop toward $375.51, while a move above $438 could push BCH toward $455.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is trading at $431.33, showing a slight dip of 0.25% over the last 4-hour period. After a recent rally that pushed prices to a local high near $438, BCH is now facing selling pressure. The short-term trend appears to be consolidating, with signs of weakening bullish momentum.
BCH at Crucial Support Zone Between $415 and $438
The 4-hour chart reveals that BCH recently surged above the upper Bollinger Band, which often indicates overbought conditions. This move was followed by a retracement, bringing the price back to the support of the 9-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $431.72.
The price action is hovering around this EMA, suggesting indecision in the market. The 9-period Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) stands at $438.19, marking a resistance level that bulls have struggled to break.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 60.46, down from a recent high of 66.67. While still above neutral territory, the RSI is pointing downward, which may indicate a slowdown in buying pressure. If the RSI continues to fall, it could signal a shift toward bearish sentiment.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator still shows a bullish crossover, with the MACD line above the signal line. However, the histogram bars are decreasing in height, suggesting that momentum may be fading. If this pattern continues, it could lead to a bearish crossover in upcoming sessions.
Support is currently found around $415.58, the middle line of the Bollinger Bands. A break below this level could open the door to further declines toward the $375.51 zone, which marks a previous consolidation area. On the upside, a clear breakout above the $438 resistance could pave the way for a move toward $455 and beyond.
Bitcoin Cash is at a technical crossroads. While the recent rally shows potential for bullish continuation, the indicators suggest a pause or possible pullback. Traders should watch the $431–$438 range closely for confirmation of the next move.
