Trader Warns Chainlink (LINK) at Risk of Correction, Updates Outlook on Ethereum-Based Altcoin

A closely followed crypto trader says that top blockchain oracle provider Chainlink (LINK) could be due for a sizeable correction.

Pseudonymous trader and analyst Rekt Capital tells his 371,000 followers on the social media platform X that in order to move higher, LINK needs to close above the $14.70 level.

“Chainlink needs a similar weekly close like in early 2021 to rally higher.

At the moment, the price struggling to break the top of the red box which may soon act as resistance on a bounce.

Needs to reclaim the top of the red box to move higher.”

At time of writing, LINK is trading at $14.60 which is just slightly below the trader’s resistance level.

Rekt is also looking at the decentralized data service Ocean Protocol (OCEAN), which, like LINK, may be coming up against macro resistance.

The trader says that a monthly close above the $0.47 level would indicate that OCEAN has further to run.

“Monthly close coming soon and OCEAN is at the range high resistance (red).

Monthly close above red = bullish.

Otherwise, any dips into the green region would be a retest of the range Low and part of consolidation within the green-red range.”

At time of writing, OCEAN is trading for $0.44.

Looking at the interoperability chain Polkadot (DOT), Rekt Capital says the altcoin is inches away from entering a brand new longer-term uptrend as it slowly breaks above its downward resistance above the $5 mark.

“Polkadot is on the cusp of confirming a new macro uptrend.”

At time of writing, DOT is worth $5.29.
