BTC is trading just above USD 19,000 support, below which it could decline towards USD 18,800.

Bitcoin cash price is down 3% and it broke the USD 270 support zone. BCH might continue lower even below the USD 265 support. The next major support is near the USD 260 level. Conversely, the price must clear the USD 270 and USD 272 levels to move higher towards the USD 280 resistance zone.
Litecoin (LTC) is also down 2% and it failed to stay above the USD 80.00 support level. An initial support is near the USD 78.80 level. If there is a downside break below USD 78.80, the price might retest USD 76.50. The next major support is near the USD 75.00 level.
XRP price declined 5% and it traded below the key USD 0.500 support level. The price is trading near USD 0.495 and it could continue to move down towards the USD 0.488 and USD 0.485 levels. On the upside, the previous support at USD 0.500 may possibly act as a resistance.
