Friday’s transactions, which saw a total of 11.6 million LINK moved, are 3 of the 5 biggest transactions for 2023, according to Santiment’s data.
These whale transactions seemed to have had a positive effect on LINK’s price. CoinMarketCap shows that LINK’s price has risen 1.08% over the last 24 hours. Furthermore, LINK has also strengthened against the two crypto market leaders, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), by 1.13% and 0.84% respectively. As a result, the price of LINK stands at $6.92 at press time.
4-hour chart for LINK/USDT (Source: TradingView)
LINK is trading in the consolidation channel between $6.767 and $6.975. LINK’s price attempted to break out above the consolidation channel over the last 24 hours but was rejected by the resistance level shortly after making the move to close the 4-hour session at $6.915.
LINK’s price has a lot of technical obstacles to overcome before traders should look to enter a long position for LINK in the coming 24-48 hours. The first obstacle is the upper bound of the aforementioned consolidation channel. The next obstacle is the 9 EMA line on LINK’s 4 hours chart which is currently acting as a resistance level for the altcoin’s price.
