Bitcoin Cash price analysis

Bitcoin Cash is starting to move towards the top of its established price range, as bullish tones spread through the cryptocurrency market.

Bitcoin Cash price analysis shows that gains above the $280.00 level could provoke a major upside rally in the BCH/USD pair.

Bitcoin Cash medium-term price trend

Bitcoin Cash could finally be preparing to breakout to the upside, as the BCH/USD pair edges towards the top of its recent price range.

Due to its strong correlation with Bitcoin, a breakout rally above the $10,500 level in the BTC/USD pair could propel Bitcoin Cash towards a fresh 2020 trading high.

Bitcoin Cash technical analysis shows that the $350.00 level is likely to be a bullish target if the $280.00 resistance level is overcome.

Bitcoin Cash technical analysis

The daily time frame shows that the BCH/USD pair’s 200-day moving average, around the $265.00 level, is the first technical bulls need to overcome.

One above the $265.00 and $280.00 level then the BCH/USD pair is likely to test the top of a symmetrical triangle pattern, around the $350.00 level.

The difference between trading assets and CFDs
The main difference between CFD trading and trading assets, such as commodities and stocks, is that you don’t own the underlying asset when you trade on a CFD.
You can still benefit if the market moves in your favour, or make a loss if it moves against you. However, with traditional trading you enter a contract to exchange the legal ownership of the individual shares or the commodities for money, and you own this until you sell it again.
CFDs are leveraged products, which means that you only need to deposit a percentage of the full value of the CFD trade in order to open a position. But with traditional trading, you buy the assets for the full amount. In the UK, there is no stamp duty on CFD trading, but there is when you buy stocks, for example.
CFDs attract overnight costs to hold the trades (unless you use 1-1 leverage), which makes them more suited to short-term trading opportunities. Stocks and commodities are more normally bought and held for longer. You might also pay a broker commission or fees when buying and selling assets direct and you’d need somewhere to store them safely.
