Market Snapshot
LINK currently trades in a tight range between major support at 10.8 and near-term support at 8.18, with near-term resistance at 8.52 and major resistance at 11.7. The most recent TA reads indicate a bearish tilt in the short term, with the price objective suggesting further downside unless a break above 8.52 occurs.
