LINK Retests Key Demand Zone

Crypto Woodyz, an analyst, highlighted that Link is now testing the $11.8-$12.2 demand cluster, which has previously acted as strong support for the asset in past cycles. A clean bounce from here could see it test the mid-channel range and $14.9 resistance, which has recently acted as a cap for the asset.

However, another analyst, Rose Premium Signals, mentioned that the LINK cryptocurrency once again reacted to the major historical demand area. According to her, the area triggered a major rally in the past. It is also clear that the cryptocurrency is accumulating after the prolonged consolidation.
