Bitcoin Cash ABC rose by 0.86% on Saturday. Reversing a 0.11% fall from Friday, Bitcoin Cash ABC ended the month down 14.3% at $281.14.

A relatively choppy day saw Bitcoin Cash ABC fall from an early morning high $279.84 to a late intraday low $273.

In spite of the sell-off, Bitcoin Cash ABC steered clear of the first major support level at $272.64.

A late rally saw Bitcoin Cash ABC come within range of the first major resistance level at $284.68 with an intraday high $284.39 before easing back to $281 levels.

Bitcoin Cash ABC left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead, a move back through to $280 levels would support a run at the first major resistance level at $286.02.

Bitcoin Cash ABC would need the support of the broader market, however, to break out from Saturday’s high $284.39.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, Bitcoin Cash ABC would likely fall short of the second major resistance level at $290.09.

Failure to move back through to $290 levels could see Bitcoin Cash ABC slide deeper into the red.

A fall through to $276 levels would bring the first major support level at $274.63 into play.

Barring a crypto meltdown, Bitcoin Cash ABC should steer clear of sub-$270 support levels.
