Chainlink’s (LINK) Outlook Grows Bleak: Signals of Bearish Continuation Surface

Chainlink’s LINK price is struggling to surpass the $13.80 resistance. The price could continue to move down if it breaks the $13.00 support.

• Chainlink price is showing bearish signs below the $14.00 resistance against the US dollar.
• The price is trading below the $13.60 level and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours).
• There is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $13.50 on the 4-hour chart of the LINK/USD pair (data source from Kraken).
• The price could start a decent increase if it clears the $13.80 resistance zone.

In the past few days, Chainlink saw a steady decline from well above the $13.80 level. LINK price declined below the $13.50 support level to enter a short-term bearish zone, like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

The price tested the $13.10 support zone. A low was formed at $13.07 and the price recently attempted a recovery wave. There was a move above the $13.50 level. It even jumped above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $14.30 swing high to the $13.07 low.

However, the bears were active below the $13.80 resistance and the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $14.30 swing high to the $13.07 low. LINK price is still trading below the $13.80 level and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours).

Immediate resistance is near the $13.50 level. There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $13.50 on the 4-hour chart of the LINK/USD pair.

The next major resistance is near the $13.80 zone. A clear break above $13.80 may possibly start a steady increase toward the $14.00 level. The next major resistance is near the $14.35 level, above which the price could test $15.50.

If Chainlink’s price fails to climb above the $13.50 resistance level, there could be a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $13.10 level.

The next major support is near the $12.80 level, below which the price might test the $12.20 level. Any more losses could lead LINK toward the $11.50 level in the near term.
