Bitcoin Cash (BCH) consolidates near $590 at the time of writing on Monday, after reaching its highest yearly level of above $600 the previous day. A bullish thesis in BCH is further supported by the rising Open Interest (OI) in the derivatives market, which has reached levels not seen since April 2024. Moreover, technical analysis suggests further upside, targeting the $640 mark.
BCH derivatives and on-chain data show bullish bias
CoinGlass’ data shows that the futures’ Open Interest in Bitcoin Cash at exchanges rose from $432.04 million on Thursday to $655.31 million on Monday, levels not seen since April 10, 2024. Rising OI represents new or additional money entering the market and new buying, which could fuel the current BCH price rally.
