Bitcoin Cash falls below $286: the 200-day line that decides the trend

Bitcoin Cash costs around $280 on October 29, 2026, equal to about 251 euros. The price has fallen from $304.28 to $275.32 within a day and now sits below its own 200-day line at $286.19. The impulse came from the US central bank: the Federal Reserve left the policy rate unchanged on October 28, and two members of the Open Market Committee voted for an increase. That makes Bitcoin Cash the asset among the 25 largest cryptocurrencies that gave up the most after the decision.

The daily loss on its own says little. What is interesting is where the price has landed, because at $279.87 Bitcoin Cash now stands below the line that medium-term buyers take their bearings from. This piece explains the level, the trigger and the points that count in practice for an investor in Europe.

The 200-day line at $286.19: what the moving average shows

The 200-day line is the average of the closing prices of the past 200 days. It smooths the daily noise and shows where a market's medium-term mean lies. If a price trades above it, the investors of recent months bought more cheaply on average than today. If it trades below, the average of recent months is sitting on a loss.

For Bitcoin Cash this line stands at $286.19 today. The current price of $279.87 is therefore 2.2 percent below it. The 50-day line stands at $282.06 and the 20-day line at $279.36. The price has only just reached the short-term line, while the two longer ones lie above it. Well below runs the 100-day line at $256.38, because summer was considerably weaker for Bitcoin Cash than autumn.
