IntoTheBlock’s In/Out of the Money Around Price (IOMAP) helps us visualize strong support and resistance levels. The IOMAP shows us a strong resistance barrier between $12.50 to $13.25. On the downside, the decentralized oracle network has a healthy support wall at $11.25. A break below that takes LINK to $10.85. This validates our predetermined price target of $11.
