Most of the altcoins are in a downward move because of the general breakdown in the cryptocurrency markets. The bearish coins are revisiting the previous lows before the recent upward move, except for the likes of Monero and Holo which are trading in the bullish trend zone.

BCH/USD Major Trend: Bearish

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) has been on a downward move after the coin reached a high of $275. The crypto has fallen to its low at $204 before the price corrected upward. The price correction reached a high of $227 but pulled back to $220 low. At this low, the coin rebounded as price rallied to $245 high. The upward move could not be sustained above this high. In June, buyers have earlier made concerted efforts to break the recent high but to no avail.
