For the day ahead, Bitcoin Cash ABC would need to hold onto $225 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $227.92.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $227.78 should limit any upside.

In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, the third major resistance level at $58.04 would likely come into play.
