Earlier today, LINK&#8217;s value dropped below the crucial $8.80 support level to post a local low of $8.38.

ChainLink hit this value on the 15th of July and would only revisit it two weeks later on August 2nd. The latter date is also when LINK marines joined forces to begin their campaign of liquidating Zeus Capital.<\/p>\n<h2>LINK Losing $8.80 Opens the Doors to $7<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_564130\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-564130\" style=\"width: 944px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/LINKUSDT-Oct-7th.jpg\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-564130\" src=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/LINKUSDT-Oct-7th.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"944\" height=\"457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/LINKUSDT-Oct-7th.jpg 944w, https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/LINKUSDT-Oct-7th-300x145.jpg 300w, https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/LINKUSDT-Oct-7th-770x373.jpg 770w, https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/LINKUSDT-Oct-7th-240x116.jpg 240w, https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/LINKUSDT-Oct-7th-717x347.jpg 717w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 944px) 100vw, 944px\" title=\"\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-564130\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Daily LINK\/USDT chart courtesy of Tradingview.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Further taking a quick look at the daily LINK\/USDT chart above, the following can be observed.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Trade volume is in the red indicating additional selling pressure<\/li>\n<li>The daily MACD is showing weakness below the baseline with its histograms pyet to show any buying momentum<\/li>\n<li>MFI is in neutral territory at 57<\/li>\n<li>LINK&#8217;s current value of $8.82 is below the 50-day and 100-day moving averages that are now become resistance levels<\/li>\n<li>The 200-day moving average provides adequate support around the $7 price level<\/li>\n<li>The 50-day MA looks set to cross the 200-day MA to form a death cross by mid to late October<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Summing it up, ChainLink is still very much in a downtrend.
