During the Tuesday crypto market flash crash, the Chainlink shed approximately 20% of its value from $34.95 opening price on Tuesday to close the day at $28.65. At some point, LINK dropped 33% to trade just above $23.

This level coincides with the 200-day SMA which makes it a significant hurdle to overcome. Note that a clear bullish breakout will be realised if LINK closes the day above this level.

If this happens, the bullish bias will be validated and Chainlink may rise to tag the four-month high above $37. However, LINK will have to overcome the $31.05 and $32.50 major resistance levels before moving higher.

This bullish outlook is validated by the position of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator above the zero line in the positive zone. Also, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator has started moving up away from the midline indicating that the bulls have started taking control of the Chainlink price.

On the flipside if Chainlink closes the day below the immediate support at $27.05, the asset might drop further to tag the 50-day SMA and the 10-day SMA at $25.15 and $22.07 respectively. This bearish outlook is accentuated by the MACD indicator which sent a call to sell signal yesterday when the MACD line (blue) crossed below the signal line (orange) indicating that the bears have not given of pulling LINK further down.
