ADX 59 on ZEC is a monster trend but no way im chasing 8% off the 1651 high. would rather wait for a retest of the low 1200s
retest of the 50d at 922 would be a near 40% dump, that MA is miles below price. 760 support is the level that matters if this rolls over
DCA 4 buys at +942% absolutely destroying lump sum +267% is the most underrated part of this whole ZEC analysis
makes sense when you think about it, that mid year dip is where the 4 tranches ate cheap. timing beats conviction sometimes
1y low 24.51 to 1512 now lol. whoever held ZEC from the 2024 bottom is both a millionaire and completely insane
insane is right, i sold most of mine around 200. refuse to calculate what that cost me
HIGH conviction with 10 bull and 0 bear factors is exactly when mean reversion shows up uninvited. RSI 64.3 is fine today, next week is the question
35k deployed into ZEC of all things in 2026. bold. following this trade
