Bitcoin Cash medium-term price trend
Bitcoin Cash is searching for direction ahead of the upcoming Bitcoin halving event, as price remains capped below the cryptocurrency’s 200-day moving average.
Bitcoin Cash technical analysis shows that bulls need to hold price above $270.00 to encourage technical buying.
The $270.00 level is the location of the BCH/USD pair’s 200-day moving average, and is a key area bulls need to break through.
The daily time frame shows that the neckline of a large head-and-shoulders pattern, around the $300.00 level, is the likely bullish target if a breakout above the $270.00 level occurs.
It is noteworthy that the mentioned head-and-shoulders pattern on the daily time frame has yet to reach its wider bearish target of $100.00.
What is your sentiment on BCH/USD?
Once above $300.00, the $330.00 level offers the strongest form of technical resistance, before the March 6, 2020 swing high, around the $355.00 level.

The four-hour time frame continues to show that a head-and-shoulders pattern is still in play.
Sellers need to move price below $200.00 to activate the bearish pattern, which holds a $80.00 downside projection.
If bulls invalidate the pattern and move price above the head of the pattern, to around the $280.00 level, the pattern would be invalidated and we could then see the BCH/USD pair rallying towards the $360.00 area.

Bitcoin Cash technical analysis highlights that bulls need to move price above the $270.00-$280.00 technical area to force a major breakout. The $330.00 and $350.00 levels are seen as possible upside targets.
