LINK/USD 4-Hour Chart. Source: TradingView
Key Support Levels: $22.4, $22, $20.77.
Key Resistance Levels: $24, $24.70, $25.65.
LINK started the past week following a strong bullish momentum as it surged to a new ATH price of $25.65 on Monday. However, it failed to close a daily candle above resistance at $24.85 and started to head lower from there.
By Wednesday, LINK had dropped into the support at $20.77, the previous ATH Price. It rebounded from there and spiked back above $26 but could not close a daily candle above $23.70 as of yesterday. It had since dropped slightly towards $22, where it trades as of writing these lines.
Looking at the 4-hour chart, LINK is trapped within a short term symmetrical triangle pattern. The next direction is likely to take place upon breakout. In case of a bullish breakout, the first target is likely to be the current ATH.
Looking ahead, the first level of resistance lies at the upper boundary of the short term symmetrical triangle, at around $24. This is followed by $24.70 (1.272 Fib Extension), $25.65 (ATH), $26, $26.67 (1.414 Fib Extension).
On the other side, the first support lies at the lower boundary of the triangle, around $22.40. This is followed by $22, $20.77 (previous ATH), $20, and $19.05 (.5 Fib).
The daily RSI revealed some signs of bearish divergence, which might be playing out right now. This would result in the breakout of the triangle toward the downside if true.
