Chainlink Crypto Price Prediction

The price of Chainlink (LINK) has increased 6.17% over the past 24 hours to trade at $9.28 as of writing time. The fact is that this clearly indicates bullish momentum. This upward trend is probably going to attract buy-side liquidity over $9.86 and could even reach the psychological milestone of $10.

LINK, however, saw a 7-day price increase of 26.78%. This actually demonstrates that LINK hasn’t performed poorly since the start of the week. Additionally, its market cap climbed by 7.57% to $5.169.689.378 and its volume increased by 153.14% to $1.072.239.632.

A long-term bullish technical indicator has recently been activated on the daily chart of LINK, which traders and investors should be aware of. The 200-day EMA line has been above the 100-day EMA line for the last 48 hours. The price of LINK may continue to grow over the next few weeks, according to this indication that long-term momentum has moved in favor of bulls.

On the other hand, a sell-off would occur if this weekend’s gain turned out to be a fluke and investors began to take profits. The bullish thesis will be invalidated in this situation by a weekly candlestick that reverses the most recent gains and results in a candlestick closing below $7.69.
