The current price of BCH is very close to testing the support at $216 and there is another support at $166. However, if the price were to increase, there is also a crucial point of resistance at $277.
The Bollinger Bands for BCH indicate less volatility in comparison to the past week as the bands have now contracted significantly. The Stochastic indicator has plummeted to the oversold zone and indicates bearish sentiment for the coin.
