Chainlink (LINK) Price Analysis

LINK traded as low as $7.90 during the historical October 10th crash, now recovered. Yet, the token is still going in a downtrend that started post-crash, trading below the 50-day exponential moving average (1D50EMA), an important trend indicator for financial assets and crypto.

Looking at its relative strength index (RSI), Chainlink goes with a neutral momentum, trying to pick up strength while investors are back accumulating.

Ether, Ethereum’s native token, is showing similar signals of accumulation as ETH reclaims the $3,000 level.
