Mid through this week, there was a sudden break that saw Bitcoin Cash corrected lower breaking below the short-term support at $160. The larger market dumped $16 billion in less than 24 hours. However, in the last 24 hours, the same market is recording slight gains of $2 billion from $121 billion to the current $123 billion.

On the other hand, after Bitcoin Cash tail-spin below the hourly Simple Moving Averages (SMA), the bulls have taken solace in the support at $130. Attempts to reverse the trend have been thwarted by the seller concentration at $135. In fact, at press time, the aforementioned support is being tested.

Taking a broader look at the chart, we see that the bulls have begun preparing for a comeback. The Moving Average Divergence Convergence (MACD) is recovering from the low formed at -6.03 to the -3.3. The same recovery is seen in the Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the same chart. The RSI is currently holding ground above the oversold region.
