Chainlink Price Breaks Key Resistance, Eyes $15 Target
Chainlink's price has broken through a key resistance zone on its daily chart, signaling renewed strength in the cryptocurrency. The LINK token is currently trading at around $10.64, with a 24-hour volume of approximately $1.16 billion.
The market capitalization of Chainlink stands at roughly $7.96 billion, accounting for about 0.33% of the overall market dominance.
This price move is significant because it marks a departure from several months of trading within a broad range between approximately $7 and $11. The upper end of this range had previously acted as resistance, particularly in the $10.50-$11.00 zone.
Crypto market analyst Crypto With Gopal noted that Chainlink has broken out of a long-term rectangle pattern on its daily chart, with the $10.50-$11.00 zone becoming a crucial level to monitor. A move above $11 would strengthen the bullish case and potentially drive prices towards the $15 target.
However, there is also a downside risk if Chainlink fails to hold the breakout area. If the price returns below the $10.50-$11.00 support zone, it could weaken the setup and raise the possibility of a deeper decline, potentially even falling by approximately $3.
