LINK’s momentum declined
Source: LINK/USDT on TradingView
LINK’s market structure weakened as momentum declined further. LINK made lower lows in the past few days, sliding down the descending line (white, dashed). The Relative Strength Index (RSI) also remained in the lower ranges in the same period.
Near-term bulls could target the 38.20% Fib level ($7.516) if the RSI breaks above the equilibrium mark of 50. The recovery seen at press time could be accelerated if Bitcoin [BTC] breaks above $23.86k. But bulls must clear the obstacle at $7.4 (above the 26-period EMA).
Failure to close above the 26-period EMA could tip bears to regain entry into the market. Short-term sellers could look to book profits at the 23.60% Fib level ($7.309) or $7.2 support. The descending line or the 0% Fib level could check a drop below the support.
The RSI value was 50, showing a neutral market structure. On the other hand, the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) has been hovering slightly above the zero line since 24 February, indicating that bulls made a series of unsustainable recovery attempts.

LINK saw improved investors’ confidence and an accumulation trend
Source: Santiment
According to Santiment, LINK’s supply on exchanges dropped and stagnated, indicating reduced short-term pressure throughout last week (from February 25). Moreover, the supply outside of exchanges spiked, indicating increased short-term accumulation in the same period.
LINK’s positive weighted sentiment shows investors’ confidence in the asset improved and further reinforces the above accumulation trend. So, if the trend continues, the recovery could push LINK to retest the 38.2% Fib level ($7.516). But bulls may only be confident of such a move if BTC breaks above $23.86k.
