As you can see from the chart above, the price of BCH recovered during late October before crashing around 45% as we moved through November.
The October gains were lost and the price came crawling back down to below $230 as the huge market-wide meltdown hit the coin hard. At its lowest point over the past week, BCH touched $200 before recovering almost immediately.
Last week, I claimed it was probable that BCH would start seeing some positive momentum as the price was recording higher lows. However, it turns out I was wrong on this one.
In addition, Bitcoin Cash is now trading below all its EMAs. BCH needs to try and regain support at around $225, as there’s a steep drop to $170 below that.
For the time being, I expect BCH to trade below its EMAs for a while and to attempt to recover towards the 200-day EMA – even though the market is showing no signs of a recovery just yet.
Right now, volume sits at just above $1 billion – around half of what it was last week.
Safe trades!
BCH fundamentals
I recently spoke with Bitcoin Cash’s strongest advocate, Roger Ver, and discussed the most recent developments on the horizon for BCH. You can find all the details here, but the most juicy news seems to be the recent spike in adoption due to the implementation of smart contracts.
Roger, like myself, believes key components for mass adoption are speed and flexibility. What Bitcoin Cash Oracles offers is a way for any user to easily deploy an “escrow” transaction that can be used to trade globally – without the hassle of trusting the other party.
I personally think these “trade escrows” will be key in terms of adoption, especially for work-related tasks. In a way, they do enable milestone-based funding, which may be the new and better way of conducting ICOs instead of simply creating an extra layer of complexity with STOs that require KYC and accreditation – something that goes against what we should be promoting within the crypto ecosystem.

About Bitcoin Cash
Bitcoin Cash was born out of the idea of making Bitcoin more practical for small, day-to-day payments. In May 2017, Bitcoin payments took about four days unless a fee was paid, which was proportionately too large for small transactions. A change to the code was implemented and Bitcoin Cash was born on 1st August 2017.
