Bitcoin cash rises 0.77% today

Highlights

Bitcoin Cash trades at $561.3, above its 20-day ($511.59), 50-day ($554.69), and 200-day ($494.71) moving averages, reflecting persistent positive momentum.
Despite $448 million net inflows into spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs on October 28, 2025, Bitcoin Cash failed to attract significant capital, with traders favoring emerging projects like BlockDAG.
Momentum indicators—MACD, ADX, RSI, and Stoch RSI—signal near overbought and bearish conditions, with a less than 20% probability of BCH exceeding the $580.40–$583.30 corridor in the next five days.

Volatility rises as BCH underperforms amid ETF inflows and rotation

Recent institutional rebalancing and widespread crypto market sell-offs have led Bitcoin Cash to retest important support zones, amplifying volatility and triggering liquidations. The asset's inability to benefit from the $448 million in net inflows to spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs on October 28, 2025 may limit its upside relative to major competitors. Meanwhile, some traders are shifting interest to emerging projects like BlockDAG, reflecting the ongoing challenge for BCH to maintain capital inflows.

Cautious outlook as overbought signals diverge from weak momentum

Momentum signals are mixed, with a strong daily MACD sell signal, high ADX readings, and the RSI and CCI suggesting a near overbought market. Stoch RSI also points to overbought conditions, while BBP remains neutral, indicating neither buyers nor sellers have a clear upper hand intraday. The Awesome Oscillator favors the current downtrend momentum. The nearest dynamic support is the Ichimoku Kijun at $529.25, while resistance is positioned near the 50-day average at $554.69 or the next round level. The divergence between overbought oscillators and softening momentum highlights a cautionary tone, with upward price action not fully confirmed by underlying strength.

Downside bias as technical signals diminish odds of breakout

For the next five trading days, the projected price corridor is $580.40 to $583.30, with an expected average of $581.85. Based on current signals—one buy (MA-50-w1) and three sells (RSI-w1, ADX-w1, MACD-w1)—the probability of a further price increase is very low (less than 20%), making a decline more likely. The baseline scenario sees BCH consolidating between $530 and $565. A bullish outcome would require a break above recent resistance near $565 – $570, while a move below the Ichimoku support at $529 could expose BCH to further downside.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees Bitcoin Cash trading above key moving averages but notes that fundamental and sentiment headwinds are capping its relative upside. He points to mixed technical indicators and recent weak capital flows, suggesting BCH faces a challenging environment compared to major crypto peers. While a consolidation between $530 and $565 is likely, the low probability of a sustained breakout keeps the outlook subdued. "I remain cautious on BCH — until there is a decisive move above $570, the risk of further downside persists and bullish setups lack confirmation."

Previously, it was noted that sellers dominated intraday activity and momentum indicators remained weak, supporting a cautious outlook for the asset. Last time, we reported that Bitcoin Cash was expected to stabilize in a sideways corridor near current levels, with a bullish move anticipated only if resistance was broken.
