These are open positions read from the chain, not opinions, and they change daily.
2. The trend still points up

3. Zcash is mid-range after 90 days
Zcash is 54% of the way up its 90-day range, which runs from $246.870 to $689.570; over 30 days the market is +17.08%. The same headline number means something different at the top of a range than at the bottom — which is why position is worth naming.
