BCH drops below crucial support, here’s how much farther it can fall
Bitcoin Cash has not looked particularly strong in the past two months. Since November, the price has been in a bearish trend and had some support at the $416 level. That level was decisively lost earlier this month, which signaled buyer exhaustion. This drop could see Bitcoin Cash register more losses in the coming days, as the next significant level of support was much further south. Sometimes, Bitcoin Cash could see some strength from buyers in the event that Bitcoin sees a strong move upward. However, that has not yet materialized.

Technically, a drop below such a significant level meant that BCH was likely to drop even further in search of demand. Price always seeks liquidity, and for Bitcoin Cash that liquidity could likely only be seen further south. As noted, the $326 and $217 have been significant levels of support for BCH.

The OBV confirmed the bearish trend for BCH in recent weeks. Although the CMF was not decisive, it has tended to dip below -0.05.
Taken together, the indicators showed the bearish
