Ascending Support
The price of BCH/BTC on Bittrex is analyzed at daily intervals from Dec 2018 to July 2019 in order to trace the current pattern.
The price has been increasing since February 2019, when it reached lows close to ₿0.032.
Since then, it has been following the ascending support line outlined below:
The line also coincides with the 0.786 fib level of the entire upward move beginning in Dec 2018.
The moving averages give a different outlook for the short- and long-term.
Several bearish crosses have occurred in the short-term, most of them occurring at the end of June.
However, a bullish cross between the long term moving averages of 100- and 200-periods has also occurred.
This could be a sign that a long-term uptrend has begun. In that case, the current decrease would be a short-term movement inside a longer uptrend.
A look at the short-term trading pattern gives a brighter outlook.

Short-Term
The price has been struggling to break out above the resistance line at ₿0.038 and has been doing so since June 26. However, it was successful in doing so on July 1st. This movement was preceded by bullish divergence in both the RSI and the MACD. BCH found resistance near ₿0.040, an area which previously acted as support and began a small decrease.Summary
The Bitcoin Cash price has been following an ascending support line for more than a year. The price is currently right on this support line. While the ascending support line may fail to provide enough support to the price, the ₿0.030 – ₿0.035 support level should do so, since it has provided strong support since the beginning of 2019. Furthermore, the short-term bullish divergence that has developed does not seem sufficient in initiating an upward move. While a short-term upward move has already begun, we believe that more consolidation is required before a long-term uptrend begins. The movement of the long-term moving averages and significant support area makes us believe that an uptrend will soon begin. What do you think of the Bitcoin Cash price against Bitcoin?
