Zcash / USD Short-term price analysis

Zcash is bullish over the short-term, with the ZEC / USD pair trading well above its 200-period moving average on the four-hour time frame.

A bearish head and shoulders pattern remains valid on the four-hour time frame, although short-term bulls are working hard to negate it.

Technical indicators across the four-hour time horizon are growing increasingly bullish as the advance gathers pace.

Zcash / USD Medium-term price analysis

Buyers need to force price above the ZEC / USD pair’s former monthly trading high, in order to spark the next wave of technical buying interest.
