Technical analysis shows that a false breakout from the horizontal price channel took place earlier this month.

Failure to rally the price back above the $280 level could cause the BCH/USD pair to fall back towards the bottom of the horizontal channel, around the $200 level. 

Traders that are bullish towards the BCH/USD pair may attempt to buy the pair around the $200 area, in expectation of a recovery back towards the $280 level.
