BCH/USD: Technical picture
On the intraday charts, BCH/USD attempted a recovery above the local resistance created by 50-hour SMA at $288.80. If it is sustainably broken, the upside momentum may gain traction with the next target at $290, followed by the upper line of the 1-hour Bollinger Band $296.00 THis barrier separates us from the ultimate resistance created by psychological $300.00. The coin attempted a break above this area on Thursday, but the upside momentum was not sustained.
On the downside, the local support comes at $281.00. This area reinforced by 100-hour SMA stopped the decline on Thursday, which means BCH/USD may need an additional impulse to push through. Once it is out of the way, the sell-off is likely to gain traction with the next focus on $280.00. The RSI on the intraday charts implies that the coin may spend some time in the current range.

On the daily chart, BCH/USD retreated below the upper line of the daily Bollinger Band at $294, in line with the technical correction. The longer-term support is created by 200-daily SMA at $273.00. This technical level served as a strong resistance since the beginning of March until it was taken down on July 28. Now it has a potential to limit the decline.
