Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is trading above $621 at the time of writing on Thursday after hitting a new yearly high, fueled by Bitcoin (BTC) surge to an all-time high. The bullish momentum continues to strengthen, driven by rising Open Interest and a buy-dominant phase. The technical outlook suggests rally continuation with bulls targeting levels beyond $700.
Bitcoin Cash on-chain and derivatives data show bullish bias
CryptoQuant data, as shown in the graph below, highlights buying pressure on Bitcoin Cash. The Futures Taker CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta) for BCH has flipped positive on Sunday and has been constantly increasing so far this week. This metric measures the cumulative difference between market buy and sell volumes over 3 months.

Adding to this optimism, CoinGlass’ data shows that the futures OI in Bitcoin Cash at exchanges reached the highest yearly level of $683.96 million on Wednesday, levels not seen since April 10, 2024. Rising OI represents new or additional money entering the market and new buying, which could fuel the current BCH price rally.
