ChainLink is currently trading at $9.42 and faces a critical resistance level established on the daily chart. The digital asset had a massive bull run in 2020, climbing towards $20.11 in August.

LINK/USD daily chart – TradingView

Unfortunately, the run was short-lived, and the currency is now down more than 50% since its all-time high. On the daily chart, the 100-SMA has been acting as a strong resistance level, broken a few times from September 24 to 28, but ultimately rejecting the price.

Bulls seem to have established a possible higher low at $8.38 compared to $7.28, and they could be on their way to change the daily downtrend.

On the 4-hour chart, we have seen a massive 10% spike in price, mostly due to the good news from Square, a company founded by Jack Dorsey, the CEO of Twitter, about buying $50 million worth of Bitcoin.

The price has managed to climb above the 50-SMA and it’s currently trying to crack the 100-SMA. If both levels can be turned into support, LINK will have a real chance to re-test $10 in the short-term.

The next target price would be $10.5 where the 200-SMA currently stands.

Zooming out to the weekly chart, we can observe that the current uptrend is, in fact, still there. The last real low would be $3.65, which means that any price above this point is simply a higher low and a continuation of the uptrend.

The 50-SMA is established at $5.44 and will act as a strong support level in the case of a crash. The most likely scenario would be an equilibrium pattern with the price creating a higher low followed by a lower high.

Considering the current range between the high and the low, the equilibrium pattern could last for months, into the beginning of 2021.
