Chainlink Is Poised to Drop Further: TD Sequential

Sequential “9” candles marked three separate local highs in the price of the cryptocurrency over the past two years: once in June 2019, once in February 2020, and once when LINK reached an interim top in the middle of May.
Technical Analysts Agree With the Tom Demark Sequential
Technical analysts agree with the bearish sentiment implied by the Tom Demark Sequential’s formation of a “Sell S-13” candle for Chainlink.
One crypto analyst recently remarked that a pullback for Chainlink to $13 will likely soon arrive due to a break in the local trend:
“This is a very unbiased & non-marine opinion on LINK. I have no business FUDing the project nor do I need to support it in a culty way. Facts are that we had a HUGE run-up and are now pulling back, which is good. I do see more blood coming though. Simple TA shows that we have no supports tested on the daily. Our first “bigger support” is around $8.50 (0.618 Fib Level). The minimum pull-back I am expecting is to $13.00 We also broke the daily trend for Chainlink.”
Bitcoinist analyst Tony Spiltoro also recently found that Chainlink’s on-balance volume indicator recently broke below a multi-month uptrend. The indicator tries to observe price action in relation to market volumes in a bid to determine trends.
