The price is currently (UTC 08:20 AM) up around 2% and is attempting an hourly close above the USD 6,600 resistance. Once there is a close above USD 6,600, the price is likely to clear the USD 6,650 resistance for a solid recovery towards the USD 6,700 and USD 6,800 resistance levels in the near term.

Bitcoin cash and ripple price
Bitcoin cash price stayed above the USD 500 handle and recovered a few points. BCH/USD is back above the USD 520 level, but it has to break the USD 540 and USD 550 resistance levels to move into a positive zone. The main supports on the downside are USD 510 and USD 500.
Ripple price recovered nicely and gained more than 4.5% to USD 0.542. XRP/USD is likely to surpass the USD 0.550 resistance to trade towards the USD 0.565 and USD 0.570 resistances.

To sum up, the recent bounce in bitcoin is indicating positive signs above the USD 6,500 level. However, BTC/USD must break the USD 6,600 and USD 6,650 resistance levels to gain bullish momentum towards the USD 6,800 barrier. Similarly, ETH/USD should surpass the USD 230 and USD 235 resistances for a decent rally.
