LINK has been closely tracking Ethereum’s price action as of late, which caused it to see a sharp selloff yesterday that has since been erased by bulls.
The crypto is still stuck below its near-term resistance at $13.00, and until it can break above this level it may continue facing some consolidation in the days and weeks ahead. A break above this level would be significant and help spur further upside, but it may not be enough to shift its trend back into bulls’ favor. One trader is now noting that $13.75 is the crucial level he is watching. Until it can break above this level, the cryptocurrency could see significantly further sideways trading in the days and weeks ahead. Whether or not it can break above this level will likely depend largely on Ethereum and the aggregated altcoin market.Chainlink Remains Stuck Below Key Level as Sellers Stay in Control
At the time of writing, Chainlink is trading up 5% at its current price of $12.75. This marks a notable surge from daily lows of $11.80 set in tandem with Ethereum’s decline to $440.

If this level is flipped into support, it could help catapult the crypto significantly higher.Analyst: LINK Not Bullish Until It Breaks $13.75
