Bitcoin Cash (BCH) Price Analysis: A Wild Pre-Fork Ride

Thus far, we’ve been pretty spot on with our projections for Bitcoin Cash’s pre-fork price action.

Four-Hour Chart

Late last night (EST), BCH bucked the trend and broke out of its downward channel. However, the price fairly quickly retraced — though bounced around plenty on the way back. Now, it has garnered support at the ever-crucial and must-discussed 0.08 BTC level. Holding at the 0.08 would be a good sign, technically speaking. That said, the lack of a follow-through after breaking out of the channel is moderately concerning.

Stochastic RSI

The Stochastic Relative Strength Index (Stochastic RSI) has approached overbought territory and received a swift rejection. The lines have crossed in bearish fashion, possibly suggesting that the pendulum of momentum is about to swing the other way. If that happens, it is unlikely that the price will hold at the primary support level of 0.08 BTC.

Daily Chart

The Stochastic RSI on the daily chart is also heading downwards in a direct and steady fashion. At the moment, there is very little reason to suspect the indicator will change direction — other than the fact, of course, that a hardfork will be taking place in only a matter of days. In theory, nothing is stopping investors from pumping the price immediately before the hardfork occurs. However, it is looking more and more likely, with each passing hour, that the high is already in for this specific pump. After the hardfork occurs, there is a very high possibility BCH will dump even further. What do you think about the pre-fork price action for Bitcoin Cash (BCH)?
