For the day ahead, a move back through to $303 levels would signal a rebound later in the day.

Bitcoin Cash ABC would need the support of the broader market, however, to break through to $310 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, Bitcoin Cash ABC would likely come up short of the first major resistance level at $316.65.

Failure to move back through to $303 levels could see Bitcoin Cash ABC spend another day in the deep red.

A fall through the first major support level at $290.18 would bring the second major support level at $276.35 into play before any recovery.
