It's a slow start to the day, but there should be some support through the day, following Thursday's reversal, the news not bad enough to justify the moves.

Bitcoin Cash Hits Reverse

Bitcoin Cash fell by 3.54% on Thursday, following Wednesday’s 4.09% slide, to end the day at $802.1, the day in red marking a 7th in the last 9-days.

A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin Cash move through to $860 levels and a mid-morning intraday high $863, coming up short of the first major resistance level at $867.63, before a broad based market sell-off saw Bitcoin Cash slide through the first major support level at $807.23 to a late in the day intraday low $792, before recovering to $800 levels.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin Cash was down 0.43% to $800.2, with a spill over from Thursday’s late reversal leading Bitcoin Cash to a morning low $788.5 before recovering to $800 levels.

For the day ahead, a move through $819.03 would support a run at the first major resistance level at $846, though we can expect resistance to build as Bitcoin Cash attempts to break clear of sub-$800 levels, with $900 levels likely to remain out of reach on the day.

Failure to move through $819 in the early afternoon could see Bitcoin Cash slide back to sub-$800 levels to bring the first major support level at $775.07 into play, the extended bearish trend intact with Bitcoin Cash continuing to fall short of $900 levels and the 23.6% FIB Retracement Level of $930.

Litecoin Holds on to $80 levels

Litecoin fell by 3.43% on Thursday, following on from a 3.04% drop on Wednesday, to end the day at $83.36.

A relatively range bound start to the day saw Litecoin move from a morning low $86.32 to a mid-morning intraday high $87.87, before easing back to $86 levels through the afternoon, the day’s first major resistance level at $89.69 left untested on the day.

The late in the day broad based market sell-off saw Litecoin slide through the first major support level at $83.91 to an intraday low $82.79 before recovering to $83 levels.

At the time of writing, Litecoin was up 0.16% to $83.59, with Thursday’s late sell-off continuing into the early hours of this morning, taking Litecoin to a morning low $82.74 before steadying, the day’s first major support level at $81.48 left untested early on.

For the day ahead, a move through $84.67 would support a run at the first major resistance level at $86.56, with Litecoin’s hold at $80 levels through Thursday’s sell-off a bullish sign, though we will expect Litecoin to continue falling short of $90 levels and the 23.6% FIB Retracement Level of $98 in the day.

Failure to move through to $84 levels could see Litecoin pullback through the morning low to bring the day’s first major support level at $81.48 into play, while we expect Litecoin to continue to hold at $80 levels through the day.

Ripple Re-joins the Pack in the Red

Ripple’s XRP fell by 2.38% on Thursday, reversing Wednesday’s trend bucking 0.86% gain, to end the day at $0.44983.

A relatively bullish start to the day saw Ripple’s XRP move through to a late morning intraday high $0.47059, coming within reach of the first major resistance level at $0.4715 before hitting reverse in the early afternoon.

A 2nd half of the day pullback saw Ripple’s XRPs slide through the first major support level at $0.4499 to an intraday low $0.44345, with the broad based market sell-off leaving Ripple’s XRP at sub-$0.45 levels by the day’s end.

At the time of writing, Ripple’s XRP was up 0.24% to $0.45116, recovering from an early $0.4453 low that left the first major support level at $0.4387 untested.

For the day ahead, a break out from $0.4546 would support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.4656, to bring $0.47 levels back into play, while we will expect Ripple’s XRP to continue falling well short of $0.50 level and the 23.6% FIB Retracement Level of $0.5528.

Failure to break out from $0.4546 could see Ripple’s XRP reverse the morning’s gains and pullback through the early morning $0.4453 low to bring the day’s first major support level at $0.4387 into play, with sentiment across the broader market to dictate whether support will kick in to avoid a bigger hit later in the day.
