Zilliqa nurtures the breakout to $1.12
ZIL has already stepped out of a bull flag pattern that appeared on the daily chart. The pattern forms after an asset price action extend considerably upwards followed a period of consolidation. The breakout from the bull flag often results in a powerful move higher, equaling the length of the flag pole. Therefore, if buying volume continues to rise behind the Zilliqa, the price will resume the uptrend targeting $0.12.

On the other hand, it is worth mentioning that the 4-hour chart shows that ZIL/USD is likely to retrace before embarking on the discussed upswing. Initial support will be provided by the 50 Simple Moving Average. If push comes to shove, the 100 SMA will come in handy, preventing losses under $0.07.
