LINK/USD: Chainlink Is Trapped In a Tight Range
Key Resistance Levels: $4, $4.26, $4.5
Key Support Levels: $3.47, $3, $2.63
While most top altcoins dropped below their immediate supports following the recent fall in Bitcoin’s price, Chainlink has managed to hold strong above a key demand level at $3.47 after many rejections.
The price is trapped in a tight range of $3.47 and $3.85, following a sudden drop from $4.26 last week. Chainlink is currently struggling around $3.70 against the US Dollars after losing 1.69%.
Link’s bullish trajectory remains valid as long as the channel pattern holds. But the price is currently indecisive, suggesting a potential breakdown or continuation as indicated on the 4-hours chart.
Chainlink Price Analysis
In case of a drop, Chainlink would need to break below the orange demand area at $3.47 before decreasing further to $3. The next significant support is located at $2.63, all marked orange on the price chart.
Link could resume an upward trend if the channel’s lower boundary continues to act as a support. Reclaiming $4 would give a green light for the market. The price may climb back to $4.26 resistance (last week’s high) before breaking further to $4.5 and above.
For now, Chainlink is in the middle of a consolidation. The next actual direction of the market is yet to be ascertained.
