All-Time Low
A look at the weekly time-frame shows that the ZEC price is trading at an all-time low.
The price has been making new all-time lows since the beginning of 2019.
The fact that there are no support areas left makes it hard to predict a bottom.
Additionally, a look at the daily chart along with moving averages (MA) suggests that the price has been trending downwards for a while.
The price is trading below both the long- and the short-term MAs (200-, 100-, 20- & 10-day).

Zcash Targets
In order to do that, we are going to use a Fibonacci retracement tool in the previous upward move that transpired throughout May-June.
The closest one is found at the 1.618 fib level at ₿0.0050.
The next one is found at ₿0.0020.
Next, we will take a look at the short-term to see if ZEC has any reversal patterns developing.
Signs of a Reversal?
A look at the six-hour time-frame does not reveal any trading patterns.
However, it suggests that the price has been showing some signs of a reversal.
On August 8, the price created a bullish hammer, before decreasing the next day.
Additionally, a look at the RSI & MACD shows signs that Zcash may be developing bullish divergence.
However, without a trading structure in place, we do not consider the initiation of a reversal likely at the current time.
Summary
The ZEC price has been trading at an all-time low.
While it has been showing some signs of a reversal, we cannot state with confidence that it is likely to do so.
Instead, it may continue decreasing.
