Key Takeaways
  • Chainlink (LINK) has crashed by 27% since its August highs.

  • Will LINK begin an upward movement that takes it to new highs?

Chainlink’s price has fallen since Aug. 22, culminating with a low of $20.24 today, marking a 25% drawdown since the August high.

Despite its massive decline, several signs point to the Chainlink correction’s end.

The long-term indicator readings, short-term wave count, and price action all suggest the bottom is close.

With that in mind, let’s examine the charts.

The trend reversed afterward, with four bearish weekly candlesticks falling by 27% in five weeks.

Today, Chainlink’s price reached a low of $20.24, slightly above the $19.50 horizontal support area.

Despite the decline, momentum indicators are not bearish yet.

On the contrary, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is still above 50, and the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) is positive.

These are signs that the long-term Chainlink trend is still bullish.

So, even though the LINK price has fallen today, its long-term trend remains intact, suggesting that new highs are likely before the end of the year.

What’s Next for LINK?

The daily time frame suggests that LINK will reach a bottom soon, if it has not already done so.

According to the wave count, Chainlink’s price completed wave four of a five-wave upward movement (green) today, bouncing at the support trend line of a descending parallel channel (green icon).

The bounce is very close to the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement support level (green), providing even more confluence to the possibility that this is the actual bottom.

To confirm this, the LINK price must reclaim the $22.20 horizontal level and break out from the parallel channel. 

If that happens, Chainlink will head to a new cycle high, targeting the 1.61 external Fibonacci retracement level at $32.61 (red).

Reversal Is Close

Chainlink’s 27% decline appears to be nearing its end, with indicators showing that the correction phase may soon be complete.

The RSI, MACD, and wave structure suggest the $20–$21 range could mark the bottom.

If LINK reclaims $22.20 and breaks its channel, the path opens for a rally toward $32.61 and potentially new highs by year-end.
