The Chainlink price has been on quite a run in the past few months,
but so has the entire cryptocurrency market. While the general
market has somewhat cooled off in recent weeks, the price of LINK
has continued to impress at the end of the year. As it looks to
reclaim its current all-time high, the Chainlink price has returned
to around the $30 mark for the first time in more than two years.
According to a prominent analyst on the social media platform X,
the altcoin’s rally is only just beginning, with a new price target
already in sight. How Chainlink Price Can Move Up To $34 In a
recent post on the X platform, popular crypto pundit Ali Martinez
shared an interesting prognosis for the price of Chainlink over the
next couple of days. The analyst explained that LINK’s current
price layout suggests a bullish breakout might be on the horizon
for the altcoin. Related Reading: XRP Price In Motion: Analyst
Reveals The Next Major Supports And Resistances This bullish
prediction is based on the formation of an ascending triangle
pattern on the 1-hour timeframe of the LINK price chart. The
ascending triangle is a chart pattern used in technical analysis
that is characterized by a horizontal line connecting the
swing highs and a rising trendline along the swing lows. Typically,
ascending triangles are regarded as continuation patterns, as the
price often breaks out in the same direction as the initial trend
forming the triangle. While a break out of the horizontal line is
the most likely scenario, a breach of the trend line is also
possible. As observed in the highlighted chart, the Chainlink price
has been hovering around the upper horizontal line, just above the
$30 level. According to Martinez, if the price of LINK does break
this upper line, an hourly candlestick needs to close above the
$30.4 mark, for it to be considered a successful breach. The crypto
analyst noted that if the Chainlink price does successfully break
above the upper horizontal line, it could travel as high as $34 in
the next couple of days. This would represent a 15% surge from the
altcoin’s current price point. LINK Price Overview As of this
writing, the Chainlink token is valued at around $29.25, reflecting
an almost 5% price increase in the past 24 hours. The altcoin’s
performance on broader timeframes is even more impressive, surging
by over 17% in the past week. Related Reading: Bull Flag Formation

capitalization of over $18.3 billion. Featured image from Unsplash,
