At this point, there is no upward momentum gaining traction on the market. There are talks that Chainlink could be added to the Coinbase platform soon since it’s a coin with a strong use case.

Bearishness is in place, and it seems like LINK/USD could fall further. It might become a bearish trend until a new wave of momentum pushes the price above $20.00 again. The current resistance level for LINK/USD is $20.00, and the support level is $15.07. The Stochastic Oscillators show no signs of an upward trend forming just yet.

LINK/USD 24-hour chart: Price struggles to find upward momentum

On the daily chart, LINK/USD reached a low of $15.0 and is currently trading at $15.67 as buyers face off sellers around those levels to establish a new uptrend above the resistance at $20 and support at $15.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) also trends northward and shows no divergence. The only way down from here may be to go along with a soft stop at $16 again as LINK trades within a bullish-neutral zone.

LINK/USD 4-hour chart: Technical indicators paint bearish picture

The 4-hour chart for the LINK/USD pair shows a neutral environment, with the RSI holding at 53. The price is currently trading at $15.67 and is finding resistance at another strong demand level that it must break through to break out of its current bearish downtrend towards $30.

If bulls can sustain momentum around those levels, LINK may test the highs again as buyers eye a move towards $30. But if not, LINK will likely go for its local bottom at $15.8.

The current price of LINK/USD is below the 200-day EMA, and the 100 and 200-day EMAs are in a bearish crossover, indicating further pressure on prices. There might be a slight rise before it declines to $15 to establish support there.

The price will also be supported by its 50-day EMA, which has yet to cross its 100-day EMA, meaning there is still room for decline. In addition, it appears that Chainlink prices are finding support at the $17 level from a short-term perspective.

The Relative Strength Indicator (RSI) for LINK is also at a level of 47, which reflects low short-term momentum and the possibility that the token has found its bottom for this trading period.

Chainlink Price Analysis: Conclusion

The bearish trend of LINK will continue unless it breaks out of the current trading range with significant momentum, which will take it up to $25 or higher levels where there are strong resistances.
