Bitcoin Cash is tanking and we are nearing an important support zone

  • All major cryptocurrencies have taken a hit today and Bitcoin Cash is one of the underperformers.
  • The BCH/USD price is now headed to the consolidation low price of 255.06.

Bitcoin Cash has sold off on large volume over the last few hours and the daily loss has now hit 8.33%.

On the daily chart below, I have outlined a few important price levels but if the volume increases at the same rate it may not matter.

255.06 is the consolidation low from July and until recently looked to be holding strong. 

Today all of the majors seem to be taking a hit and BTC/USD has also lost 3.83% but this is nothing compared to BCH/USD.

Under this, 277.40 is the next support zone to be aware of as after the rally it was used before as a platform for a move higher.

The volume profile on the left-hand side is showing a low volume node which sometimes helps support levels.

Lastly, there is a trendline on the chart which is near the support zone. Price may spike to reach that level before consolidating.

XRP approaches key support as risk-off sentiment deepens
Ripple (XRP) is trading at $1.06 on Monday, maintaining its position within a broader bearish trend. The token’s technical outlook continues to deteriorate, pressured by declining retail participation. Appetite for risk assets remains lethargic, as reflected in the Fear & Greed Index, which is embedded in the Fear territory at 28.
Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP extend decline amid renewed risk-averse sentiment
The cryptocurrency market remains weak on Monday, with Bitcoin (BTC) falling toward the nearest $62,000. Ethereum (ETH) and Ripple (XRP) reflect the sell-off across altcoins, edging lower toward $1,800 and $1.05, respectively. Risk appetite remains subdued, as the Fear & Greed Index holds steady at 28, deep within Fear territory.
The Bitcoin futures yield collapse: Once over 20%, now less than Treasury notes
Once a goldmine for carry traders, Bitcoin futures have flipped, consistently underperforming plain‑vanilla U.S. Treasuries every month since February. Carry trades consistently yielded 20% or more across regulated and unregulated crypto exchanges during the 2021 bull market. The strategy involved shorting Bitcoin futures while simultaneously buying a spot exchange-traded fund (ETF).
The crypto market is moving in the opposite direction to equities
The crypto market’s market capitalisation has fallen by 1% over the past 24 hours, returning to levels last seen in mid-July. The positive momentum the market showed in the first half of last week failed to take hold. Once again, we are seeing a negative correlation with the Nasdaq 100 index, this time in the form of falling cryptocurrencies while shares rise. Could this be becoming the new norm?
Bitcoin: Bulls hold the line
Bitcoin (BTC) edges slightly lower, trading at $64,300 at the time of writing on Friday but holding firmly above a key support zone. US-listed spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) support BTC as they continued to attract institutional flows through Thursday, pointing to the fourth consecutive week of net inflows.
