What the Chainlink Daily Chart Says
With respect to the short-term future of Chainlink, the digital asset is attempting to turn the $30 price area into a support zone. At the time of writing, Chainlink is trading at $29.90 amidst a general crypto-wide pullback that has seen Bitcoin lose the crucial $48k support.
Chainlink (LINK) is very much in bullish territory as shall be elaborated using the daily LINK/USDT chart below.
To begin with, trade volume is in the green, with Chainlink’s value very much above the three crucial moving averages: 50, 100 and 200 day MAs. Secondly, the daily MACD is also hinting at a continuation of Chainlink’s bullishness. However, the daily MFI and RSI are pointing towards an overbought scenario at values of 83 and 78 respectively.
Therefore, and as with the case with most altcoins such as Chainlink, a continuation of its bullish trajectory is very much reliant on a stable and/or bullish Bitcoin. If the King of Crypto can maintain a value above $46k or even $45k, Bitcoin would provide a good environment for Chainlink to keep pushing higher in the hours and days to follow.
The converse is also true, if Bitcoin were to have a red weekend, Chainlink could very well experience its own correction that could see LINK drop below $30 to support zones found at $28.7, $27 and $26.20.
