Bitcoin cash, litecoin and XRP price
Bitcoin cash price broke the USD 290 resistance, but it struggled to gain momentum above the USD 295 level. BCH topped below USD 300 and it is slowly moving lower. On the downside, the USD 285 level is a decent support, followed by the USD 278 level. On the upside, the USD 295 and USD 300 levels are important hurdles for the bulls.
Litecoin (LTC) is up 6% and it surpassed the USD 80.00 resistance level. An immediate resistance is at USD 80.80, above which the price might rise steadily towards USD 83.50 or USD 84.20. On the downside, the USD 78.50 level is a short-term support. The next key support is near the USD 76.20 level.
XRP price settled above the USD 0.600 level and it even surpassed the USD 0.620 resistance. However, the price is facing a major resistance near USD 0.635 and USD 0.655. A proper close above USD 0.655 is a must for more upsides in the near term. If not, the price could decline towards the USD 0.580 level.
