  • It is trading inside a symmetrical triangle
  • Bearish divergence is developing in the RSI in both short- and long-term time-frames.

Short-Term Movement

The price of BCH/USD is analyzed at one-hour intervals from June 4 to 13 in order to trace the current trading pattern. The RSI is added in the second graph.Since reaching lows and highs of $365 and $410 respectively on June 5, the Bitcoin Cash price has been trading inside the symmetrical triangle outlined below.

Nch Price Symmetrical Triangle

At the time of writing, the BCH price was trading very close to the resistance line of the triangle. It had previously made an unsuccessful attempt at a breakout on June 7. Will this one be successful?

An analysis of technical indicators makes this improbable.

RSI Divergence

First, the RSI has generated bearish divergence. However, it is only occurring in short-term timeframes and is not very significant in value.

However, the three highest hourly candles since June 12 have been characterized by long upper wicks. This indicates that there is selling pressure in the market.

Therefore, the use of short-term indicators supports a price decrease towards the support line of the triangle.

Bitcoin Cash Price: Long-Term

The price of BCH/USD is analyzed at one-day intervals from Mat 1 to June 13 in order to trace the current trading pattern. The RSI and the 10- and 20-day moving averages (MA) are added in the second graph.Since March 11, the BCH price has been trading inside the ascending channel outlined below.

Ascending Channel

On May 30, the Bitcoin Cash price reached the resistance line of the channel before a swift reversal ensued. At the time of writing, the price was heading towards the support line of the channel, which has not been touched since Apr 30.

Will it get there?

An analysis of the RSI and the moving averages say that it is probable that it will.

RSI Long

The RSI has been generating bearish divergence since May 14. It culminated with a high on May 28. However, a decrease has already occurred as a result of the bearish divergence. It is not yet clear how long it will last.

Furthermore, a bearish cross occurred on June 6. The previous time this occurred was on Apr 22. Afterward, the price continued to decrease until it bounced at the support line. If the BCH price acts in the same manner, it will eventually reach it.

Reversal Areas

One resistance and one support area are traced for BCH/USD below:

Reversal Areas

The closet support area is found near $360. Price found support at this level on May 20 and initiated an upward move. It again reached this area in early June. A breakdown below this level would likely take the price to the support line of the channel.

Conversely, the closest resistance area is found near $450.
