The market feels like that strange, heavy silence before a thunderstorm. Screens look calm, but you can almost hear the pressure building behind the red candles – that mix of fear, greed, and opportunity humming in the background.

$ZEC just printed a brutal 24h range, from around 595 down to the 482 wick, now hovering near 490 after a -13% flush. Volume is picking up instead of dying out, which tells me this isn’t apathy, it’s positioning. Order books are showing chunky blocks stepping in closer to the lows, the kind of quiet whale prints that don’t talk – they just absorb. At the same time, dominance is starting to loosen its grip on the majors, and capital is slowly rotating into high-beta, high-volatility plays again.

Here’s what I’m watching next: ZEC holding that 482 support zone and trying to reclaim above 500. Above that, I’ve got my eyes on the short-term resistance bands around 512, then 540, and finally the prior 595 area as an extension if momentum really kicks in. Lose 482 with conviction, and I expect a deeper liquidity grab lower before any serious bounce.

My rough levels (not financial advice, just my own map):

EP: 488 – 492
TP: 512 / 540 / 595
SL: 476

I’m ready for the move. ‌
