Bitcoin Cash has been on a wild ride since mid-September, with the BCH / USD pair quickly reversing from the $330.00 level towards the $197.00 level and then recovering back towards the $300.00 level.

With the broader market still in bear mode, a correction could be on the horizon for the BCH / USD pair, however, the cryptocurrency has been remarkably resilient to selling pressure this month.

Short-term analysis suggests that if buyers can secure gains above the $305.00 level then the BCH / USD pair could stage a powerful rally towards the $390.00 level.

Looking at the bear case, a head and shoulders pattern with a $30.00 downside projection has taken shape on the four-hour time frame. For the decline to take place BCH / USD sellers would need to hold price below the $270.00 level.

Medium-term analysis shows that the BCH / USD pair is trading within a wedge pattern, with the wedge pattern showing a large trading band spanning from $215.00 to $305.00.

Overall, a breakout above the $305.00 could provoke a rally towards the $390.00 level, while a decline under the $270.00 level could trigger a decline back towards the $240.00 level.

According to the latest sentiment data from TheTIE.io, the short-term sentiment towards Bitcoin Cash, at 78.00 %, while the overall long-term sentiment towards the cryptocurrency is neutral, at 48.00%.
