Zilliqa Price Forecast: ZIL could rally 15% if it closes above $0.11

  • Zilliqa price has seen significant returns since it closed above the 12-hour 100 SMA on February 1.
  • This rally could continue if ZIL closes above a crucial level at $0.11.
  • A correction may come into the picture if support at $0.09 is invalidated.

Zilliqa price witnessed a 325% upswing between December 1 and 27, 2020. However, the Doji candlestick on the 12-hour chart signalled the end of this rally. The resulting pullback pushed ZIL into a consolidation pattern until its breakout on February 1.

Zilliqa price pushes for a higher high

Zilliqa price has risen nearly 60% since its close above the ascending triangle pattern on February 1. Interestingly, the bounce from the 12-hour 100 SMA helped ZIL find a foothold required for this breakout.

Now, Zilliqa faces selling pressure around the $0.11 price level. Therefore, a 12-hour candlestick close above this barrier confirms the bullish momentum. This could allow the token to rally another 15% to hit $0.12.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator reinforces ZIL’s bullish outlook. In addition to being in the positive range (above the zero-line), the MACD line (12 SMA) has stayed above the signal line (26 SMA), preserving the bullish crossover.

ZIL price saw a 17% jump between February 10 and 11, when the developer index increased by 17% from 0.17 to 0.20. Usually, investors perceive this as a bullish sign since project rollouts or updates often follow high developer activity.

While everything seems to be looking up for ZIL, investors should note that rejection at the $0.11 level could push ZIL down to the support at $0.09. A breakdown of this support due to increased selling pressure will invalidate ZIL’s positive outlook. Hence, a resulting correction could send ZIL down to the 12-hour 100 SMA around the $0.075 level.
