Bitcoin Cash – ABC – Hits Reverse

Bitcoin Cash ABC rose by just 0.04% on Saturday. Following a 3.92% slide on Friday, Bitcoin Cash ABC ended the day at $211.77.

A choppy start to the day saw Bitcoin Cash ABC fall to an early morning intraday low $210.81 before finding support.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $206.99, Bitcoin Cash ABC struck an early morning intraday high $215.53.

Bitcoin Cash ABC fell short of the first major resistance level at $217.81 before easing back.

A mixed afternoon saw Bitcoin Cash ABC slide back to $211 levels before finding support to strike an early afternoon high $215.

Bearish sentiment across the broader market ultimately weighed, however, with Bitcoin Cash ABC ending the day at $211 levels.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin Cash ABC was up by 0.11% to $212.0. A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin Cash ABC rise from an early morning low $211.31 to a high $212.06.

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

For the day ahead, a move through to $212.70 levels would bring the first major resistance level at $214.60 into play.

Bitcoin Cash ABC would need the support of the broader market to break out from $213 levels.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, however, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $215.53 should limit any upside.

Failure to move through to $212.70 levels could see Bitcoin Cash ABC hit reverse.

A fall back through to $211.50 levels would bring the first major support level at $209.88 into play.

Barring a broad-based crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin Cash ABC should steer clear of the second major support level at $207.98.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $51.95, Litecoin rose to a late afternoon intraday high $54.14.

Falling short of the first major resistance level at $54.83, Litecoin fell back to $53 levels.

At the time of writing, Litecoin was down by 1.06% to $53.24. A bearish start to the day saw Litecoin fall from an early morning high $53.89 to a low $53.04.

Litecoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead, Litecoin would need to move through to $53.50 levels to support a run at the first major resistance level at $54.44.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Litecoin to breakout from Saturday’s high $54.14.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, Litecoin would likely come up short of $55 levels for a 2nd consecutive day.

Failure to move through to $53.50 levels could see Litecoin fall deeper into the red. A fall through the morning low $53.04 would bring the first major support level at $52.88 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off through the day, Litecoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $51.95.

Failure to move back through to $0.29 levels could see Ripple’s XRP spend another day in the red. A fall back through the morning low $0.2830 would bring the second major support level at $0.2818 into play.
