Chainlink Price Analysis: LINK Holds $14 as Buyers Watch Key Threshold

2025/12/09 03:40

The daily structure shows cautious strength, although momentum remains limited as buyers and sellers battle for control near the $14 area.

LINK Needs $13.50 Reclaim to Confirm Bullish Shift

In a new update shared on X, analyst CRYPTOWZRD outlined a neutral-to-cautious outlook for LINK, noting that the asset “closed indecisively” on the daily chart.

According to the analyst, lower-timeframe movement also reflects indecision, leaving the market without a clear directional bias. He added that a brief move below $13.50 followed by a bullish reversal could form a favorable long setup, while sustained trading below $13.50 would signal weakness and open short opportunities.

The chart shows a clear descending trendline extending from the November high toward the current region, indicating that bullish momentum remains capped unless buyers generate enough volume to break above dynamic resistance. Meanwhile, the structure between $13.50 and $14.20 remains the most crucial short-term battleground for directional confirmation.

A daily close above the trendline resistance would shift sentiment firmly in favor of buyers, while rejection from the trendline could extend the ongoing consolidation phase. CRYPTOWZRD emphasized that traders should watch liquidity sweeps around $13.50 as a potential catalyst for renewed volatility.

LINK Stabilizes at $13.91 as Volume Reaches $689M, Data Shows

Fresh data from BraveNewCoin places the coin at $13.91, reflecting a 0.30% decline in the last 24 hours. The token maintains a market cap of $9.71 billion, supported by an available supply of 696.85 million tokens.

Trading activity remains healthy, with 24-hour volume reaching $689.14 million, signaling continued participation across major spot markets.

The asset has been confined within a tight intraday range between $13.25 and $14.12, mirroring the indecisive market conditions highlighted by technical analysts. Despite short-term stagnation, liquidity remains robust.

The token continues to trade nearly 73% below its all-time high of $52.70, set on May 10, 2021, leaving significant structural room for medium-term volatility once momentum returns to the broader market.

Overall market positioning shows neither side in clear control, but volume stability suggests participants are preparing for a potential shift as the coin approaches the upper boundary of the current consolidation channel.

MACD Turns Higher as CMF Stays Positive, Indicating Improving Momentum

TradingView indicators show early signs of strengthening, although confirmation remains incomplete.

The MACD histogram has flipped positive, with the MACD line now rising toward the signal line, suggesting improving short-term momentum. However, the crossover is not yet confirmed, keeping the broader trend neutral.

The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) prints +0.09, signaling positive capital inflow after weeks of muted liquidity.

This shift hints at renewed accumulation, especially near the $13.50 support zone identified by analysts as the key level for directional bias. Price currently trades around $14.02–$14.05, remaining near the midpoint of the local range.

The immediate resistance sits at the descending trendline around $15.20, while support remains firmly established at $13.50. A decisive move above the trendline with strong volume could open a path toward the $17 zone, whereas failure to hold $13.50 risks a return to the $12 range.

SEC Approves Decision Concerning Bitcoin and 9 Altcoins – The Dow Jones of Cryptocurrencies May Have Arrived

SEC Approves Decision Concerning Bitcoin and 9 Altcoins – The Dow Jones of Cryptocurrencies May Have Arrived

The post SEC Approves Decision Concerning Bitcoin and 9 Altcoins – The Dow Jones of Cryptocurrencies May Have Arrived appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. While the cryptocurrency market doesn’t yet have a comprehensive index like the Dow Jones or S&P 500, Bitwise is one step closer to filling this void. The company’s new exchange-traded product, Bitwise 10 Crypto Index ETF (BITW), has begun trading, offering individual investors and financial advisors access to the 10 largest crypto assets in a single product. BITW’s portfolio includes the following digital assets: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana, Chainlink, Litecoin, Cardano, Avalanche, Sui, and Polkadot. Bitwise CEO and co-founder Hunter Horsley told CNBC that this conversion makes the company the first to include altcoins like Cardano, Avalanche, Sui, and Polkadot, which don’t currently have spot ETFs, in an ETF from a major asset manager. “This step significantly broadens the investor base that can access various crypto assets,” Horsley said. “This is particularly important for assets without a spot ETF.” According to the CEO, this ETF also provides significant accessibility for smaller investors who invest through individual retirement accounts (IRAs) or pension funds and are only able to access ETFs. BITW, previously an index fund containing the same assets, has been converted to an ETF and is now listed on the stock exchange with $1.5 billion in assets under management. The ETF structure provides additional benefits to investors by offering greater trading flexibility, tax advantages, and lower costs, along with broader trading permissions. This development follows an expanded wave of ETFs that followed the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024. Since then, asset managers have sought approval for a wider range of ETFs, from altcoins like Sui and Aptos to Trump-themed tokens and memecoins like Dogecoin. However, as the market matures, crypto assets are beginning to take on their own dynamics, suggesting that broad-based products like BITW could offer a diversification tool similar…
