Bitcoin Cash has surged out of a consolidation pattern against Bitcoin, signaling potential for further gains.

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is trading at $491.65, making it the best-performing asset among the top 100 cryptocurrencies over the past 24 hours. The BCH/BTC pair listed on Bitstamp has broken above a triangle formation defined by a series of descending intraday highs and ascending lows, indicating a previously tightening price range.

Technical analysts often view breakouts from such patterns as a prelude to significant price moves, suggesting BCH may be poised for a notable rally against Bitcoin (BTC, currently at $107,223.43) in the coming days.

Adding weight to the bullish scenario, the BCH/BTC ratio has climbed above its 200-day simple moving average — a key indicator of long-term trends monitored by both retail traders and institutional investors.

However, the pair may encounter resistance at 0.00467, the swing low from February 2024, followed by the December high near 0.00636. The bullish outlook would be invalidated if the ratio drops below the monthly low of 0.00373.

HYPE Token Faces Bearish Divergence Signal

Meanwhile, Hyperliquid’s HYPE token may be facing headwinds after a meteoric rise.

HYPE has surged nearly fivefold over the past three months to reach $44. Yet, its daily chart reveals signs of weakening momentum: although the token has continued to register higher intraday highs, the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) has been trending lower, forming a negative divergence.

Such divergences often signal a loss of upward momentum and can precede a bearish reversal in price trends.
