A potentially strong bullish jump could be at hand if LINK is able to sustain itself above the price of $14. The price targets that fall between $27 and $46 are currently under close observation. Traders and investors are eagerly waiting to see if there is acceleration in buying pressure.
Lack of support for such a level could see market uncertainties emerge with regard to market volatility. Low levels could be attained if bearish actions take place in the market. Traders in the market should focus on volumes and overall market conditions for strategic guidance.
