Crypto Analyst Warns Chainlink Positioning for Downside Move, Updates Outlook on Bitcoin and Dogecoin

By Daily Hodl Staff

A widely followed crypto strategist warns that the decentralized oracle network Chainlink (LINK) could witness a significant move to the downside.

Pseudonymous analyst Rekt Capital tells his 348,800 Twitter followers that Chainlink now looks bearish after failing to take out its macro downtrend resistance.

According to the crypto analyst, the failed breakout suggests that LINK is still range bound, and in a worst-case scenario, Chainlink could correct all the way down to $6.13, representing a 16% retracement from current prices.

“The worst-case scenario for LINK if its monthly closes below the black range high resistance?

A drop into the range low support at $6.13 as part of its range-bound consolidation within the black-black range.”

At time of writing, LINK is worth $7.57, below Rekt Capital’s range high resistance on the monthly timeframe.

Looking at Bitcoin (BTC), the analyst says that the crypto king lost its bullish market structure on the weekly chart after breaking below its higher low setup at $29,500. However, Rekt Capital says that BTC is still managing to stay above its horizontal support at $29,245.
