Bitcoin Cash Price Analysis: Why this head-and-shoulders pattern is vital for the attack at $350?

  • Bitcoin Cash soars 3.6% on Thursday and reclaims support at $330.
  • BCH/USD nurtures a breakout above the head-and-shoulders pattern.

Bitcoin Cash is in a bullish recovery phase after a gruesome dip to $300. Recovery has been lethargic but steady. On Thursday, BCH/USD is up 3.6% compared to Bitcoin (BTC)’s 1.98% and Ethereum (ETH)’s 1.46%.

The gains come after the formation of a head-and-shoulders pattern. Reaction to this pattern is likely to place Bitcoin Cash in the trajectory towards $350 and $400 respectively. In the meantime, BCH/USD is trading at $332 after reclaiming the support above $330.

Technical levels suggest that the bullish action could last throughout the European session. An up-trending RSI is almost crossing above the average (at 50). Further, advancement towards the overbought could encourage the bulls to increase their positions. The MACD also supports the bullish action as the signal line grinds into a bullish divergence.

Resistance two: $345 – Fibo 161.8% one-day.
