Bitcoin Cash – ABC – Sees Red

Bitcoin Cash ABC fell by 1.17% on Tuesday. Reversing a 1.0% gain from Monday, Bitcoin Cash ABC ended the day at $433.03.

A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin Cash ABC rise to an early intraday high $443.76 before hitting reverse.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $458.18, Bitcoin Cash ABC fell to an early afternoon intraday low $426.83.

Bitcoin Cash ABC managed to hold above the first major support level at $420.85 to move back through to $430 levels.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin Cash ABC was down by 0.7% to $430.00. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin Cash ABC fall from a morning high $436.33 to a low $430.00.

In spite of the pullback, Bitcoin Cash ABC steered clear of the first major support level at $425.32.

For the day ahead, a move back through $434.54 would bring $440 levels into play later in the day.

Bitcoin Cash ABC would need support from the broader market, however, to take a run at the first major resistance level at $442.25.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level at $442.25 and Tuesday’s high $443.76 would likely pin Bitcoin Cash ABC back from a return to $450 levels.

Failure to move through $434.54 could see Bitcoin Cash ABC take a bigger hit on the day. A fall back to sub-$430 levels would bring the first major support level at $425.32 into play before any recovery.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off through the day, Bitcoin Cash ABC will likely steer clear of sub-$420 levels.

In the event of an extended sell-off, the second major support level at $417.61 could come into play before any recovery.

Steering clear of the major support and resistance levels, Litecoin recovered to an afternoon high $116.29 before easing back to $114 levels.

At the time of writing, Litecoin was down by 1.44% to $113.3. Tracking the broader market, Litecoin fell from a morning high $114.94 to a low $112.0 before finding support.

In spite of the choppy start to the day, Litecoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead, a move back through the morning high $114.94 would give Litecoin a run at $116 levels.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to take a run at the first major resistance level at $118.25.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, Tuesday’s high $118.21 and the first major resistance level at $118.25 would likely pin Litecoin back from a return to $120 levels.

Failure to move back through the morning high could see Litecoin fall back to $111 levels before any recovery.

Barring an extended crypto reversal, the first major support level at $111.62 would likely limit the downside on the day.
