LINK/USD Daily Chart. Source: TradingView
Key Support Levels: $13, $12.50, $12.
Key Resistance Levels: $0.15, $15.66, $16.73.
Over the past fortnight, LINK surged higher from the $12 support to push into the resistance at the upper boundary of a 2-month-old rising price channel. The resistance there was further bolstered by a bearish .786 Fib Retracement at the $15.66 level.
LINK was unable to break this line and it started to head lower last week. It dropped into the support at $12.48 (.618 Fib) at the end of November which allowed it to rebound again. Unfortunately, it struggled to break $15 and is now trading at $13.62.
Looking ahead, if the buyers push higher, the first level of resistance lies at $15. This is followed by $15.66 (bearish .786 Fib), the upper boundary of the price channel, $16.73 (bearish .886 Fib), and $17.36 (1.272 Fib Extension).
On the other side, if the sellers break beneath $13.40, the first level of support lies at $13. This is followed by $12.50 (lower boundary of price channel & .618 Fib), $12, and $11.50.
The RSI is trading at the mid-line as indecision looms within the market. However, the Stochastic RSI is primed for a bullish crossover signal that could send the market upward.
Key Support Levels: 70,000 SAT, 67,367 SAT, 65,000 SAT.
Key Resistance Levels: 74,200 SAT, 80,000 SAT, 86,800 SAT.
