On the other hand, Bitcoin Cash had extended the gains not only above $400 but hit the levels close to $450. The gains started towards the end of April after Bitcoin Cash found support at $225. BCH/USD bulls pushed for a reversal past both the 100 Simple Moving Average (SMA) as well as the 50 SMA. There was a correction past other hurdles at $300, $375 and $400.

Although, the bulls had eyes on $500, Bitcoin Cash was caught in the middle of the selloff affecting Bitcoin. The asset lost its bullish momentum dropping below $400, $375 and even the support at $350. Additional declines found bearing at $341.63 giving way for slight correction to the current $341.63.
