I have been tracking XPL for awhile now, and the wave-count's I've had for it has been ever-changing and so painful. Anyone who's been holding XPL I'm sure knows, but the only thing I hold spot is Zcash everything else I just try to get a cheeky leverage trade on here and there. And this one has burned me in the past, badly. Selling pressure has been unrelenting, no thanks to their token unlocks that have happened at massive intervals. However, when things have swept to the 0.07 range buyers have always patiently stepped in. I suspect a violent repricing is close to occurring. Fully expect some form of failed bearish reclaim to happen that will sweep a lot of high leveraged longs before that happens though so either go in with a wide stop loss and a little or wait for the sweep. Trust me if you've watched this thing, there's almost always a sweep before a big move up.

Zcash (ZECUSD) broke this month above its January 2018 High. It has done so on a standard Adam and Eve (A&E) pattern, while using its 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) as Support for the past year (since September 2025). The technical Target on such patterns is the 2.0 Fibonacci extension, which sits at $50000. That would make a new historic High above the All Time High of $30k made on ZEC's first ever trading week. --- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

I’ve been asked a few times to take a look at ZEC and tune VDS for it, so I finally did. I configured VDS specifically for LONG (BUY) setups on the 4H timeframe. ZEC is currently in an uptrend, and the SELL signals are still too noisy to be useful. So for now, I’m intentionally focusing only on BUY setups. On higher timeframes, there simply isn’t enough history yet to build a setup I’d consider reliable. One thing I find interesting is that the signals become noticeably cleaner as more history develops. The early part of the chart contains significantly more noise, while the more recent BUY signals look much more consistent. That said, I’m personally staying out of ZEC for now. I’ve mentioned before that I think the asset has become heavily hyped and, in my view, looks overheated . So this setup is mostly here because several of you asked me to configure VDS for ZEC, rather than because I’m looking to trade it myself. As more history develops and the hype settles down, we’ll have a much better dataset to evaluate. For now: 4H, LONG only.
