Chainlink’s native token LINK is seeking to cement a base after an extended period of downward momentum. Market watchers are weighing whether the recent uptick in price signals the start of a sustained recovery or simply a brief pause in the overall decline. The token’s latest move has brought both its support and resistance levels back into focus among traders and analysts.
Key technical levels highlighted by analysts
An updated chart recently shared by an analyst pointed to two notable targets if LINK extends its upward push. According to this outlook, the first major resistance stands at around $25.52, while a longer-term target has been identified near $47.96. Although these levels remain well above current market prices, they outline the potential for price expansion should continued market support materialize, capturing the attention of investors monitoring LINK’s medium to long-term prospects.
Another technical element drawing attention is LINK’s tendency to find footing within a broad blue support zone coinciding with multiple historical cycle lows. In Don Wedge’s analysis, the price activity within this region is described as a crucial juncture for potential future movement. The chart reflects successive declines repeatedly testing the same support base; intermittent recovery attempts have been observed within these bounds. This trend illustrates that market participants remain vigilant for indications that LINK could be forming a long-term bottom.
Market data and short-term price movements
Following a period of downward pressure, LINK found renewed buying interest and managed to bounce back. Despite suffering an 83.55% pullback from its all-time high of $52.70, the latest upward momentum helped the price approach the higher end of its daily trading range. It has also continued to trade above the key support area identified by analysts, bolstering short-term market confidence.
Current market data shows LINK trading at $8.67, representing a 1.78% increase over the past 24 hours. Within the same period, the token recorded a low of $8.29 and a high of $8.70, making for a daily gain of $0.41 from the lowest point. LINK’s total market capitalization was measured at $6.13 billion, with trading volume reaching $270.97 million. The circulating supply currently stands at 708.10 million LINK tokens.
Technical indicators further reinforce this indecisive market atmosphere. Momentum signals from the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) suggest that upward strength remains tepid. As of the latest readings, the MACD line is at -0.12, while the signal line is at -0.06 and the histogram hovers near -0.06. This underscores that market momentum has yet to break decisively in either direction. At present, the main support zone has formed between $8.30 and $8.40, with initial resistance at $9.07; $9.83 is being monitored as the next significant barrier to further gains.
