ZEC hit the same $1,670 price three times in ten days and failed each time, but every dip has stopped at a higher price than the last.
This Zcash price prediction looks at whether $1,449.16 holds and ZEC finally clears that level.
ZEC bottomed near $1,000 in mid-September and climbed to $1,293.16, a level that capped the first rally before price broke above it and surged toward $1,670.96.
That level, the 1.0 Fibonacci mark, has now rejected price three times, around September 19, September 23, and again on September 27, when ZEC spiked to a high of $1,598.75 on the latest candle before sellers pushed it back.
The pullback is happening inside a clear pattern. Each dip since September 19 has found buyers at a higher level, with the low near $1,449 on September 20 and the more recent dips holding near $1,500, forming a rising floor beneath a flat ceiling.
The Zcash price today is 5% down, which has pushed the price to $1,559.38, below the 20 EMA at $1,581.24 but still above the 50 EMA at $1,528.79.
That EMA gap is the near-term battleground: a 4H close back above the 20 EMA would show buyers regaining control, while a close below the 50 EMA would put the 0.618 Fibonacci support at $1,449.16 in play.
Level Type | Price |
Resistance (2.618 Fib) | $2,610.42 |
Resistance (1.618 Fib) | $2,029.79 |
Resistance (1.0 Fib) | $1,670.96 |
$1,559.38 | |
First Confirmed Support (0.618 Fib) | $1,449.16 |
Deeper Support (0.5 Fib) | $1,380.64 |
Structural Floor | $1,293.16 |
Bull case: A confirmed close above $1,670.96 would clear the level that has capped this rally, opening the path toward the 1.618 Fibonacci extension at $2,029.79.
Bear case: Three rejections at one level also shows sellers defending it consistently. A close below the 50 EMA at $1,528.79 followed by a break of $1,449.16 would end the pattern of higher lows and expose the 0.5 Fibonacci level at $1,380.64.
$2,610.42, the 2.618 Fibonacci extension, is the highest level marked on the chart. Getting there would require clearing $1,670.96 first, then $2,029.79, a multi-stage move.
According to CoinGabbar analysts, three rejections at the same level with higher lows beneath is a textbook squeeze, and squeezes usually resolve with a decisive move.
The rising floor favors buyers, but $1,670.96 has beaten every attempt so far, so a confirmed close above it, not another wick, is what would confirm the breakout.
