Trading activity around LINK spiked sharply with trading volume jumping 183% above the 24-hour average, peaking at 6.71 million tokens traded at 14:00 UTC as LINK briefly hit $14.63 before pulling back, CoinDesk Research's market insight tool noted.
Despite the rejection at session highs, the token maintained an ascending trendline from its $13.35 base, logging consecutive higher lows throughout the day and maintaining a bullish structure, the tool suggested.
LINK outperformed most top-20 cryptocurrencies, aided by both the ETF catalyst and a broader rotation into tokens with clear utility narratives. The CoinDesk 5 Index also rose 3.3% on the day, though LINK’s gains exceeded the benchmark by over 4 percentage points.
Key technical levels to watch:
- Support/Resistance: Support holds at $14.28 with psychological backing at $14.40; resistance at $14.63.
- Volume Analysis: 183% volume surge at session high signals institutional participation and resistance testing.
- Chart Patterns: Consolidation between $14.395–$14.445 could form launchpad for renewed breakout.
- Targets & Risk/Reward: Near-term target at $14.63, with broader upside possible if buyers hold above $14.28.
