Zcash ($ZEC ) Market Update: Overbought Correction Deepens, $1,250 Critical for Trend
$ZEC is trading near $1,400**, down **12% over the past week**, after losing the **$1,500 support that held through most of September. The token hit a ten-year high of nearly $1,700 earlier this month before the sharp pullback.
Why the Drop? A derivatives-driven selloff wiped $10.08M in longs in a single hour**, forcing rapid liquidation and breaking the rising channel from August. Profit-taking after the parabolic **96% monthly gain** added pressure, with one whale offloading **25,001 ZEC (~$37.8M) at a $27M profit.
Key Levels: $1,250** is the line in the sand—this level acted as a launchpad in early September and must hold to keep the bullish structure intact. A break below opens **$1,120 (50 EMA), then $1,000**. Resistance sits at **$1,392 (20 EMA), then $1,700.
Binance Trade Setup: The structural trend remains bullish (still up 70% monthly), but momentum has cooled with RSI at 53. Consider a cautious long only if $ZEC reclaims $1,400** with volume, targeting **$1,500–$1,600**, stop below **$1,250. If support breaks, stay flat. DYOR — leverage cuts both ways.
