ZEC traders heavily short despite price holding above $1,100, risking large losses if price rises further.

Zcash (ZEC) traders on Binance are predominantly short, with 72.05% of top trader positions betting on a price drop, even as ZEC trades above $1,100. Notably, Garrett Jin holds a $44.9 million short position currently facing about $22 million in unrealized losses due to the price increase. Despite bearish derivatives positioning, spot market buyers continue absorbing supply, creating a divergence that supports the current price level. Technical analysis suggests a possible bullish Wave (5) if the price holds above the $1,023.60 support, which could increase pressure on short sellers.
