Momentum Shift or Just Another Short-Lived Pop?

• A 5% gain of Zcash has pushed the price to $390.
• Daily trading volume for ZEC is up by over 20%.

After a brief recovery attempt, the crypto market opened the day with mixed sentiment, showing both red and green charts across tokens. The broader market sentiment is still fearful, as the Fear and Greed Index value is at 37. Bitcoin (BTC), the largest asset, is hovering at $89K, attempting to escape the bear trap. 

Meanwhile, one of the top trending coins is Zcash (ZEC), which has posted a 5.26% gain over the last 24 hours. In the early hours, the asset traded at a bottom of $370.66, and with a mighty bullish shift, the ZEC price has tested and broken many crucial resistance ranges and likely climbed to a high of $403.46. 

At the time of writing, Zcash trades within the $390.84 zone, with its daily trading volume having increased by over 20.8%, reaching the $573.97 million mark. In addition, the market has experienced an event of 24-hour liquidation of $4.00 million worth of ZEC, as reported by the Coinglass data. 

Zooming in on the recent trading charts, the ZEC/USDT pair has the bullish control in the market. The price could move up to its nearest resistance at around $400.26. An extended upside pressure triggers the bulls to gain more traction, along with the formation of the golden cross, sending the price up above $411.38. 

Conversely, assuming the Zcash bears initiate a move on the downside, the price might retrace and test the immediate support at the $380.53 level. Further potential bearish correction could strengthen the bears and push the death cross out to unfold, and eventually drive the asset’s price even lower below $369.11.

Zcash Eyes Higher Ground: Technicals Flash Optimism

Zcash’s technical analysis exhibits that the MACD line is found above the signal line, which is a bullish sign. This crossover hints that the potential upward momentum is building. Moreover, the CMF indicator at 0.11 is bullish, with a positive money flow into the asset. ZEC’s buying pressure is stronger than its selling, supporting price strength or an upside continuation. 

The daily RSI of 62.13 suggests moderate bullish sentiment, and it might approach the overbought zone. Significantly, this leaves enough room for further upside for ZEC. Furthermore, the BBP reading of Zcash at 25.78 is strongly bullish, with the bulls dominating price action over the bears. Notably, it points to a short-term overheating if it spikes too fast.
