Bitcoin Cash Price Upside Hurdle
There were more declines noted below the $425 low in bitcoin cash price against the US Dollar. The BCH/USD pair broke the $425 and $420 support levels and traded to a new monthly low at $410. Later, buyers appeared and the price recovered above the $425 level. There was also a break above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $475 swing high to $410 low.
However, the price is now approaching a couple of important hurdles near the $450 level. An immediate resistance is near the $444 level. It represents the 50% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $475 swing high to $410 low.

Therefore, the $450 and $460 resistance levels are likely to stop the current recovery.
