LINK Price Analysis: After 50% Weekly Rebound, Is This Trendline Ending The Bull-Run?

Yaz Sheikh Sep 27, 2020 12:57
Chainlink saw a sharp 5% price drop over the past 24-hours as it trades at $10.15. This comes after a decent rebound from $7.50 earlier this week. Against Bitcoin, LINK encountered resistance at a similar short term trend line after briefly breaking above 0.001 BTC.

LINK/USD: Descending Trend-line Can Prevent Further Bullish Action?

Key Support Levels: $10, $9.70, $9.24.

Key Resistance Levels: $11.15, $12.33, $12.88.

LINK dropped into the support at $7.30 (downside 1.272 Fib Extension) earlier this week, and since then, the coin had seen a mini bull run. Through the bounce, LINK climbed back above the $10 level as it reached as high as $11.15 (52% ROI), where it ran into resistance at a bearish .382 Fib Retracement.

This bearish Fib Retracement was further bolstered by a falling trend line, which is highlighted on the following 4-hour chart;

The marked descending trend line added resistance around $11.15, and it seems that for now, LINK’s run had stopped. As a result, LINK dropped back to the current trading zone around $10.16.

LINK-USD Short Term Price Prediction

Looking ahead, if the bulls can break above the mentioned 4HR trend line, then the first level of resistance is located at $11.15 (bearish .382 Fib Retracement). Following this, resistance is expected at $12.33 (bearish .5 Fib Retracement), $12.88, and $13.50 (bearish .618 Fib Retracement).

Alternatively, if the sellers push lower, the first level of support lies at $10. Beneath this, support lies at $9.70, $9.24, and $9.00. Added support lies at $8.70, $8.10, and $7.68 (.886 Fib Retracement).

The Stochastic RSI is at oversold conditions on the lower timeframe, the 4-hour chart, and a bullish crossover signal might help to push LINK higher.

LINK/BTC – Similar Resistance Appears For LINK Against Bitcoin

Key Support Levels: 0.00094 BTC, 0.000918 BTC, 0.00088.

Key Resistance Levels: 0.001 BTC, 0.00103 BTC, 0.0011.

Against Bitcoin, the situation is quite similar as the buyers run into resistance at the bearish .382 Fib Retracement at 0.00103 BTC. A falling trend line also bolsters this level of resistance.

After hitting the 0.00103 BTC resistance, LINK dropped slightly and is trading at the 0.000943 BTC support level.

Additional resistance lies at 0.00117 BTC (1.414 Fib Extension) and 0.00122 BTC (bearish .618 Fib Retracement).

On the other hand, if the sellers push beneath 0.00094 BTC, support lies at 0.000918 BTC (.382 Fib Retracement), 0.00088 BTC (.5 Fib Retracement), and 0.00080 BTC.
