On-chain metrics support the bullish outlook as BCH’s transaction rate reaches a new high, and open interest is also rising. Moreover, the technical outlook suggests a rally ahead, targeting the $390.5 level.
Bitcoin Cash transaction rate hits a new high

Bitcoin Cash’s Open Interest (OI) further supports the bullish outlook. Coinglass’s data shows that the futures’ OI in BCH at exchanges rose from $174.48 million on Sunday to $238.48 million on Wednesday, the highest level since early February. An increasing OI represents new or additional money entering the market and new buying, which suggests a rally ahead in the BCH price.
