Additionally, the daily LINK/USDT is hinting at possible consolidation around the $12 price area after an impressive double-digit move from $9.72 earlier this week. If this area continues to hold, LINK could very much be on a path to retest $13 and even $15 if the crypto market environment remains as is for the next few days.
However, ChainLink traders and investors are reminded that Bitcoin has also had an impressive run in the last few days and a correction by BTC will negatively affect all digital assets including LINK. Therefore, the use of stop losses is advised as well as low leverage when trading ChainLink on the various derivatives platforms.
