Bitcoin Cash Breaks below $280 Support, Unable to Push Above $300 Resistance

The coin is facing rejection at the $300 resistance zone. The upside momentum may continue if buyers sustain hold above $ 280 support or above the EMAs. BCH is likely to rise and retest the $300 resistance zone. If successful, the momentum will extend to retest $320 overhead resistance. 

Meanwhile, BCH is retracing to the support above $280. The coin will decline to the previous low if the current support fails to hold. Nonetheless, where the current support holds, a retest at the $320 overhead resistance is likely. Nevertheless, BCH has fallen to $246 low at the time of writing.
