$ZEC 1H | SMC Intraday Trade Setup

Bias: Bullish (Validation of Intraday Sub-structure)

Context: The 1-hour chart shows that ZEC/USDT recently swept key internal buy-side liquidity at the $690.00 high and displacement downward. Critically, price has now confirmed an intraday Break of Structure (BOS) above $661.13, validating the current bullish sub-structure (forming a higher high). Price is now retracing to build a potential higher low. This retrace gives us an Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) zone within the discount range to target engineered sell-side liquidity pools.
