Currently, Chainlink price rejects further downside and forms a bullish pin bar on the 4-hour chart. Therefore, we expect further upside for LINK over the next 24 hours.

LINK/USD 4-hour chart – Chainlink ready to reverse?
On the 4-hour chart, we can see Chainlink’s price rejecting further downside and consolidating around $29 support. Therefore, we expect the market to push higher soon.
Overall, the market has shown signals of medium-term trend reversal after LINK retraced from the all-time high of just under $37 at the end of February and lost 41 percent of the low of $21.
After a strong bounce-back towards the $29 mark, Chainlink price attempted to move lower several times, however, it was stopped by the support around $23-$24. From there on, a clear higher high was set around $32 at the beginning of March. Followed by a retracement that set a higher low, Chainlink then pushed higher once again last week and set another high at the $32 mark.
After briefly consolidating around $32, LINK did start to retrace again. Right now, the retracement has been stopped by the support around $29. Therefore, Chainlink is likely to reverse soon as a further downside is rejected. A bullish 4-hour pin bar has already been set by LINK/USD, indicating that the market is likely ready to push higher soon.
The next target for Chainlink is located around the local high of $32. If it is broken in a clear way, we could see the market gain momentum and look to retest the $35-$36 area of major resistance next. This would mean a move of around 19-21 percent from the current price, meaning a good trade setup in terms of risk/reward.
Alternatively, if Chainlink fails to hold ground around $29, we are likely to see further downside. The next major support is located as far as the $26 previous swing low. If it is reached, the Chainlink price will turn very bearish once again, and we could see further downside over the following weeks.
Chainlink Price Prediction: Conclusion
Chainlink price prediction is bullish as a further downside is rejected as of now. A bullish 4-hour pin bar at the support indicates a clear signal that LINK/USD is ready to reverse. Therefore, we are likely to see Chainlink move towards the previous swing high of $32 over the following days. If the high is broken with strong momentum, Chainlink should push higher towards the next resistance, around $36.
