$ZEC has now pushed into the first of the two key areas I’ve been watching, right at the lower boundary of the higher-timeframe resistance.

This is an important zone because price has failed to break through it multiple times in the past.

For $ZEC to push higher and reclaim the full resistance area, I want to see a clear expansion in volume. The current volume is still not convincing enough compared with the strength required for a breakout.

Just look at the volume behind the previous attempt that pushed $ZEC to $744 — even with that level of participation, the breakout failed.

Volume will be the key to determining whether this time is different.
