Bitcoin Cash Steady
Bitcoin Cash gained 0.77% on Friday, partially reversing Thursday’s 2.32% fall, to end the week down 7.62% at $692.
Following a range bound morning that left the day’s major support and resistance levels untested, Bitcoin Cash broke through the day’s first major resistance level at $709.83 to an intraday high $714.1 before pulling back to sub-$700 levels in the final hours of the day.
In spite of Thursday’s gain, the trend through much of the day was bearish, with the upside having come from a start of the day move from the day’s intraday low $685 to a morning high $707, leaving the extended bearish trend intact.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin Cash was down 0.3% to $690.7 in what’s been a range bound start to the day.
An early morning $699 high saw Bitcoin Cash fall short of the day’s first major resistance level at $709.07, with a mid-morning $686.9 low holding above the first major support level at $679.97 before recovering to $680 levels.
For the day ahead, a move back through to $697 would support a move through $700 to bring the day’s first major resistance level at $709.07 into play, though we can expect plenty of resistance at $700 through the early part of the day.
Failure to move through to $700 levels could see Bitcoin Cash take a hit later in the day, with the day’s first major support level at $679.97 in play should sentiment fail to improve, with Bitcoin Cash likely to then fall short of $700 levels by the day’s end for a 3rd consecutive day.

Litecoin Sees More Red
Litecoin slipped by 0.42% on Friday, following Thursday’s 1.84% decline, to end the week down 6.79% at $76.63.
It was a particularly choppy day for Litecoin, an early afternoon intraday high $78.49 coming within reach of the first major resistance level at $78.67 before sliding through to a late afternoon intraday low $75.24 that held above the first major support level at $74.82, a late recovery to $76 levels easing some of the pain.
At the time of writing, Litecoin was down 0.77% to $76.09, an early move to a morning high $77.4 seeing Litecoin fall short of the first major resistance level at $78.33 before reversing to a morning low $76.01.
For the day ahead, a move back through $76.8 would support a run at the day’s first major resistance level at $78.33, though for Litecoin to break back through to $80 levels for the first time since Wednesday, sentiment will need to improve significantly, the day’s second major resistance level at $80 likely to be too big a step on the day.
