Key Takeaways

  • Descending channel breakout attempt in progress
  • Fibonacci levels provide key resistance zones
  • Elliott Wave suggests a potential bullish reversal

ZRO appears to be at a pivotal point, as shown in the 4-hour and 1-hour charts. The broader trend has seen a substantial correction, with Elliott Wave analysis indicating a completed five-wave decline.

The recent price movement suggests a potential reversal, but confirmation is needed.

Fibonacci retracement and extension levels provide critical resistance and support zones, defining the likely price trajectory.

ZRO Price Analysis

The 4-hour chart of ZRO shows a prolonged downtrend, structured as a completed five-wave decline, with the final wave (v) marking a significant low near $2.10 on Feb. 3.

The price has recently rebounded and is consolidating at a key horizontal resistance zone near $2.98.

This area coincides with the initial starting point, making it a critical inflection point for further upside confirmation.

A descending channel has governed price action since December, with the latest price breakout attempt aligning with the potential beginning of a new upward impulse.

However, a true breakout above the descending trendline remains unconfirmed, as price action has yet to sustain above key resistance levels.

Momentum indicators such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) show a recovery from oversold conditions, suggesting buyers are stepping in.

However, the RSI has not reached overbought levels, indicating room for further upside if resistance levels break convincingly. 

A strong close above $3.19 would confirm a bullish breakout, while rejection at this level could result in another retest of the $2.49 support zone.

ZRO Price Prediction

The 1-hour chart reveals more granular details on ZRO’s near-term price movements. A smaller-degree Elliott Wave count suggests that price action attempts to establish a new five-wave impulse to the upside.

The initial breakout structure has completed waves (i) and (ii), with wave (iii) now in development.

If this wave extends beyond the 1.618 Fibonacci extension ($3.85), it would confirm a strong bullish continuation.

Conversely, failure to break resistance at the descending trendline could trigger a retracement, likely retesting the $2.75 (0.236 Fibonacci) or $2.56 (local horizontal support).

A deeper drop below $2.49 would invalidate the bullish count, signaling a continuation of the downtrend.

On the bullish side, the Fibonacci extensions project a potential wave (v) target near $4.16 (2.0 extension) and $4.95 (3.0 extension).

The RSI on the hourly timeframe shows slight overextension but remains in a healthy range, suggesting that momentum is still building.

If the price sustains above $3.19 and confirms a breakout, a rally toward the $3.58–$3.85 range is likely, with further upside potential if buying volume increases.

However, failure at current resistance levels could lead to another corrective leg before the next breakout attempt.
