The price chart revealed that the recent uptrend led ZRO to test the resistance near the $4.5-$4.7 range. The 20-day EMA (currently at $3.8) has jumped above the 50-day EMA ($3.76), signaling a bullish crossover that typically indicates rising buying pressure.
If the bulls manage to maintain the momentum and close above the current resistance zone, ZRO could extend its rally toward the $5 psychological resistance. However, a failure to close above this range may lead to a period of consolidation or a short-term pullback toward the $4 support level.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stood at around 65 at press time. This indicated healthy buying pressure but falling short of overbought levels. If RSI continues its move upward and breaks above the 70 mark, it could suggest further bullish strength.
On the other hand, any downturn in RSI could signify a weakening trend, increasing the chances of a near-term consolidation.
CoinMarketCap’s Altcoin Season Index was neutral at the time of writing. Buyers can keep a close eye on this index, as a jump above the 50 level can hint at the start of the altcoin season.
