The price is now trading nicely above the $13.85 resistance. There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support near $13.50 on the 4-hours chart of the LINK/USD pair. On the upside, the bulls are likely to face hurdles near the $14.50 level.
The 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downside correction from the $16.43 swing high to $11.29 swing low is also at $14.50 to prevent gains. A clear break above $14.50 could open the doors for more gains above $15.00 and $15.20.
Downsides Limited?
An initial support for chainlink’s price is near the $13.65 and $13.55 levels. The first major support is forming near the $13.50 level and the trend line.
If there is a downside break and close below the $13.50 support zone, there is a risk of a bearish move towards the $13.00 support level or even towards the $12.50 level.
