Bottom line
ZS Technical Analysis Summary
ZS closed at 161.65 on August 5, 2026. The daily trend is mixed: price holds above the SMA20 at 148.97 and SMA50 at 141.04 but remains below the SMA200 at 187.86, reflecting a sharp recovery rally within a longer-term downtrend. Daily RSI at 63.13 is bullish but not overbought, and the MACD histogram is positive at 1.37, showing building upside momentum. The weekly chart is stabilizing after a deep drawdown: price at 151.20 sits above the SMA20 at 141.70 but well below the SMA50 at 204.36 and SMA200 at 187.23, while the weekly MACD histogram at 5.10 has turned positive from deeply negative levels. Key resistance is at 166.93 (20-day high) and 191.25 (60-day high). Key support rests at 138.03 (20-day low) and 119.50 (60-day low). A close above 166.93 would strengthen the bullish case, while a break below 138.03 would signal a return to the prior downtrend.

Daily (August 5, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 161.65 is above SMA20 (148.97) and SMA50 (141.04) but below SMA200 (187.86). The SMA20 sits above the SMA50, giving the short-term structure a bullish tilt, while the SMA200 remains overhead, preserving the longer-term bearish structure. Price is trading near the upper end of its 20-day range after a strong rebound from the 52-week low zone.
- Momentum
- Bullish. RSI14 at 63.13 is above the 50 midline and approaching but not yet in overbought territory. MACD at 4.45 is above the signal line at 3.08 with a positive histogram of 1.37, confirming that upside momentum is building after the recovery off the lows.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 7.71 (4.77% of price) reflects the elevated daily swings for ZS. Bollinger Bands run from 136.52 to 161.41, and the close at 161.65 sits just above the upper band, suggesting a short-term extension after the recent rally.
- Volume
- Slightly below average. Latest volume of 1,955,200 is about 84% of the 20-day average (2,331,315), showing the recent bounce has progressed without heavy volume confirmation.
Assessment
The daily chart shows a strong short-term recovery with price reclaiming the SMA20 and SMA50 and momentum turning positive. RSI at 63.13 is bullish without being overbought, the MACD histogram is positive, and price sits near the top of the 20-day range (138.03 to 166.93) at about 21% of the 52-week range. The structure stays constructive as long as price holds above the SMA20 at 148.97; a move back below it would put the 20-day low at 138.03 in focus. The SMA200 at 187.86 remains the key level to reclaim for a full trend reversal.
Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Stabilizing but still bearish. Price at 151.20 is above SMA20 (141.70) but well below SMA50 (204.36) and SMA200 (187.23), with the SMA50 and SMA200 still in descending order. The weekly series ends with the week of July 27, so its close of 151.20 predates the August 5 daily session.
- Momentum
- Neutral improving. Weekly RSI14 at 47.01 sits just below the 50 midline, neither oversold nor overbought. MACD at -13.91 is above the signal line at -19.01 with a positive histogram of 5.10, showing that downside momentum has faded even though both lines remain deeply negative after the extended decline.
- Volatility
- High. ATR14 at 19.91 (13.17% of price) reflects wide weekly ranges, typical for a high-volatility growth stock in a downtrend.
- Volume
- Below average. Weekly volume of 11,856,600 is about 64% of the 20-week average (18,616,765).
Assessment
The weekly chart shows a deep downtrend that is showing early signs of stabilization. Price has reclaimed the SMA20 at 141.70, and the weekly MACD histogram at 5.10 has turned positive, indicating fading downside momentum. However, price remains far below the SMA50 at 204.36 and SMA200 at 187.23, and the 60-week return of -50.10% reflects the severity of the drawdown. Note that the weekly series ends with the week of July 27 and does not include the August 5 daily move. The key question is whether the daily recovery can continue toward 166.93 and 191.25, or whether the oversold bounce stalls below the SMA50.
