Bitcoin Cash Regains Critical Support at $250, Struggles to Break Into Previous Highs

Following the rejection at $271 high on November 2, the coin plunged to $233 low. After an upward correction to the $245 high twice, sellers retested the $233 low but could not break below it.

The bulls took advantage as the coin rebounded above the current support. BCH rallied above $250 high as it regained critical support. Nevertheless, the current uptrend is facing resistance at $257. Buyers have been repelled twice at the $257 high. 

On the upside, if buyers can push the price above $258 and $271 resistance, a rally above $280 is likely. Alternatively, a strong bounce above the current support will propel the price to break these resistance levels. Nonetheless, if the bulls fail to break this resistance, the coin will return to its previous range bound movement. That is BCH will resume sideways moves between $250 and $280.
