LINK/USD: Technical picture
As we have previously reported, LINK smashed above several psychological resistance levels, while a sustainable move above $7.00 created a strong upside bias that brought the price to the new all-time highs. Considering that the asset is grossly overbought with the daily RSI showing signs of reversal, we may expect a downside correction towards initial support created by the upper line of the daily Bollinger Band at $7.35. if it is cleared $7.00 will come into focus, followed by $6.00 that served as a jumping-off ground for the previous bullish move.
If the price manages to settle above $8.00, the recent high of $8.49 will come back into focus. Above this area, the coin is mostly in uncharted territory with the next aim at $9.00 and potentially $10.00.
