Bitcoin Cash – ABC – Finds Support

Bitcoin Cash ABC slid by 4.18% on Tuesday. Reversing a 2.54% gain from Monday, Bitcoin Cash ABC ended the day at $333.46.

A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin Cash ABC slide from a morning high $349.91 to a low $337.08 before finding support. Steering clear of the first major support level at $336.33, Bitcoin Cash ABC rallied to an intraday high $355.

Bitcoin Cash ABC broke through the first major resistance level at $354.61 in the late morning before hitting reverse.

Tracking the broader market, Bitcoin Cash ABC slid to a late intraday low $330. The pullback saw Bitcoin Cash ABC fall through the first major support level at $336.33.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin Cash ABC was down by 0.14% to $333.00. A relatively bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin Cash ABC fall from a morning high $335.69 to a low $333.00.

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

For the day ahead, a move through to $339.50 levels would support a run at the first major resistance level at $348.97.

Bitcoin Cash ABC would need the support of the broader market, however, to break out from $340 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely pin Bitcoin Cash ABC back from $350 levels.

Failure to move through to $339.50 levels could see Bitcoin Cash ABC slide deeper into the red. A fall through to sub-$330 levels would bring the first major support level at $323.98 into play.

Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Bitcoin Cash ABC should steer clear of sub-$320 support levels on the day.
