Price & market
BCH trades near 304, inside the current zone of 297–312, just below its 200-day average after a 9.7% weekly pullback. The potential is moderate: about 28.8% to 392 against about 18.8% to 247, a ratio of 1.5. The fixed supply schedule, the CME futures launch in October and the pending Grayscale listing support interest. Low on-chain use, weak mining security and volatility near 110% weigh on the 2 to 12 week view, which is cautious; the interest zone of 268–282 offers a better balance.
