Technical Analysis

In the weekly chart, BCH/USD had a little upward inclination initially and reached $2840 in the early midweek. The coin also had a strong support at $2470. But when the weekly bear hit the coin, the support could not hold the prices and the downward rally began. The coin soon dropped to $1350, until it acted as a pivot, recently. While recovering, the coin is again facing resistance at $1870.
