Biggest Movers: BCH 5% Higher, as BNB Nears Key Price Target
Bitcoin cash rose by as much as 5% on Tuesday, as bulls extended recent gains following last week’s consolidation. The token rose for a second consecutive session, moving closer to a resistance level of $225 in the process. BNB also climbed, pushing towards a ceiling of its own at $220.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
Bitcoin cash (BCH) was a notable gainer in today’s session, as the cryptocurrency climbed for a second straight day.
Following a low of $206.86 to start the week, BCH/USD peaked at $213.89 earlier in today’s session.
The move saw bitcoin cash close in on a resistance level of $225, which was last reached on September 18.
Looking at the chart, the move comes as the 10-day (red) moving average remained above its 25-day (blue) counterpart.
Additionally, the relative strength index (RSI) has broken out of a ceiling at 52.00, and is now tracking at 54.50.
A point of resistance at 60.00 now seems to be the next target for bulls, and if hit, BCH will more than likely be above $225.
BNB
BNB, formerly binance coin, was another big mover on Tuesday, as the token rose for a back-back session.
BNB/USD reached a high of $213.19 earlier in the day, after starting the week at a low of $208.02.
Overall, the native token of cryptocurrency exchange Binance now seems to be pushing for a ceiling of $220.
In order to reach this, BNB bulls will need to surpass an upcoming resistance point of 47.00 on the RSI indicator.
At the time of writing, BNB is now at a reading of 44.41, with the token trading marginally lower at $211.74.
