Here’s why the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) price has just gone parabolic
Bitcoin Cash price has been in a strong bullish trend in the past few days.
The coin has surged by over 150% from the lowest level in May.
This rally is being supported by the Bitcoin ETF applications.
Bitcoin Cash price continued surging on Monday even as BTC and other cryptocurrencies moved sideways. The BCH coin jumped to a high of $228.72, the highest level since May 14th of last year. In all, the coin has jumped by more than 150% from the lowest level in May, making it one of the top-performing cryptocurrencies in the world.
BCH rally continues
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have been in a strong bullish trend in the past few days. This rally is mostly because of the recent crypto news. Companies like Blackrock, WisdomTree, and Invesco announced plans to launch their Bitcoin ETF. If this is accepted, it will likely help many institutional investors allocate funds to Bitcoin.
These ETF proposals do not impact Bitcoin Cash directly. However, analysts believe that these companies will file their Bitcoin Cash spot ETF proposals if the Bitcoin one is accepted. Bitcoin Cash, as with BTC, is seen as a commodity since it is a hard fork of Bitcoin itself.
Other cryptocurrencies that could benefit in all this are Litecoin, Bitcoin SV, and Ethererum Classsic. There are concerns that Ethereum will be avoided because of its staking feature, which SEC believes contravenes securities law.
Bitcoin Cash price also jumped after it became one of the four cryptocurrencies offered by EDX Markets, the new Fidelity, Schwab, and Citadel-backed crypto exchange. The other cryptocurrencies offered by the exchange are Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Litecoin.
Further, Bitcoin Cash is doing well since it has a lower price than Bitcoin itself. The BTC and BCH ratio currently stands at 131, meaning that 1 Bitcoin is worth about 131 BCHs.
Bitcoin Cash price prediction
The 4H chart shows that the Bitcoin Cash price has been in a strong bullish trend in the past few days. It has jumped above the important resistance point at $124, the highest point on May 9th. The coin has moved sharply above the 25-day and 50-day moving averages (MA).
It has also invalidated the upper part of the double-top pattern at $221.10. This was an important level since it was the highest level last week. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has moved above the overbought level.
Therefore, there is a likelihood that the BCH price will continue rising as buyers target the next key resistance point at $250. A move below the double-top neckline at $184 will signal that there are more sellers left in the market.
