A monthly chart shared on X shows a descending resistance line extending from LINK's 2021 peak through subsequent lower highs. The price is now trading close to that trendline.The chart shows a second declining line tracking more recent highs. Together, the two lines place LINK near a long-term technical boundary after several years of lower price peaks. Source: Quinten va XThe analyst behind the chart says the three-week structure has already turned bullish while the monthly structure is approaching a similar change. That interpretation has not yet produced a confirmed break of the descending resistance visible on the chart.LINK therefore enters the latest session with $12 to $13 as the immediate resistance area. The longer-term chart places additional attention on whether price can move beyond the multi-year descending trendline while holding the recent recovery above $11.
