Highlights

ZEC trades at $326.52, sitting below the MA-20 ($405.05) and MA-50 ($430.76), signaling ongoing short- and medium-term downside pressure.
Momentum indicators including MACD, RSI, Stoch RSI, and CCI are deeply bearish and oversold, confirming persistent selling with brief, mixed intraday flows.
Support rests at $327 with long-term support at MA-200 ($252.64); upside breakout requires closing above the Ichimoku Kijun ($440.55).

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees notable technical weakness in ZCash with the price persistently below both short- and mid-term moving averages. He points out the clear bearish momentum and volatile session, with daily indicators stuck in oversold territory. The lack of news catalysts leaves the market without external support for sentiment. He highlights that renewed selling could easily drive a retest of the $252.64 level if $327 breaks. "Technical structure is decisively negative and any bullish hopes remain speculative until clear reversal signals emerge," Kharitonov warns.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, notes that despite the sharp drop, strong long-term support above the MA-200 at $252.64 keeps the bullish structure intact. He believes weekly momentum is turning positive, with technicals signaling a good setup for a rebound. The absence of recent news means the market is likely to move on technical and macro flows alone. "With an expected price corridor up to $424.48 and multiple momentum buy signals, I anticipate further growth for ZCash in the coming days," Karapetjanc says.

Seller dominance confirmed as oversold signals and volatility intensify

Momentum and trend indicators on the daily chart are predominantly bearish. The MACD signals a clear downtrend and the weak ADX value points to low trend strength. Daily RSI, Stoch RSI, and CCI all indicate oversold levels, suggesting that sellers have driven the market to an extreme, although BBP’s overbought reading implies brief intraday buyer enthusiasm before renewed selling. The Awesome Oscillator stays neutral. Today’s session opened at $360.17 with no significant gap from the previous close at $363.70, and the price has since tumbled 10.22% to near the session low of $327, confirming high volatility and persistent intraday selling pressure. This aligns with momentum indicators, which overwhelmingly confirm the dominance of sellers, though the BBP divergence hints at mixed short-term flows.

Previously it was reported that Zcash is maintaining a bullish posture above key moving averages, supported by positive weekly momentum signals such as MACD and ADX, though near-term consolidation is anticipated amid overbought technical readings and governance uncertainty. Key support resides above the 20- and 50-week moving averages, with the asset consolidating within a volatile range as mixed RSI and oscillator signals suggest limited immediate upside but an overall bias toward continued institutional interest and stability following regulatory clarity.
