Bitcoin Cash – ABC – Finds Support

Bitcoin Cash ABC fell by 1.12% on Tuesday. Partially reversing a 1.68% gain from Monday, Bitcoin Cash ABC ended the day at $305.0.

A choppy day saw Bitcoin Cash ABC slide to an early morning intraday low $303.33 before finding support.

The early pullback saw Bitcoin Cash ABC fall through the first major support level at $306.32 before striking a late afternoon intraday high $312.17.

In spite of the rebound, Bitcoin Cash ABC  fell short of the first major resistance level at $316.15. A late sell-off saw Bitcoin Cash ABC slide back through the first major support level to close out the day at $305 levels

At the time of writing, Bitcoin Cash ABC was up by 0.33% to $306.0. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin Cash ABC strike a morning high $307.31 before falling back to a low $306.0.

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

For the day ahead, a move back through the morning high would support another run at the first major resistance level at $310.34.

Bitcoin Cash ABC would need the support of the broader market, however, to break out from $308 levels.

In the event of a broad-based crypto rebound, the second major resistance level at $315.67 would likely limit any upside.

Failure to move back through to $307.31 levels could see Bitcoin Cash ABC hit reverse. A fall through to $305 levels would bring the first major support level at $301.5 into play.

Barring a crypto meltdown, Bitcoin Cash ABC should steer clear of the second major support level at $297.99.
