LINK’s price is currently being held up by the support level between $8.00 and $8.19 after traders took profit from the recent spike in price. The daily chart for LINK still favors bulls as the 20 EMA line has crossed bullishly above the 50 EMA line and remains above the longer EMA line.

This suggests that traders looking to enter a long swing position can do so as the tides seem to be turning for LINK. A confirmation of this will be if today’s trading session closes with LINK’s price above the aforementioned support level. Should it fail to do so, the bullish thesis will be invalidated and LINK’s price will look to rest on the daily 20 EMA line.
